Help me find an interview outfit

[sickleaveornot]

I really need some help - I have an interview next week but nothing to wear, need to order something today/tomorrow.

I'm a size 22-24 - all belly. Don't like wearing trousers so tend to stick to dresses. Budget needs to be as cheap as possible (ideally under £50)- but also want something that looks professional.

Will probably be pairing either black Chelsea boots or I do have a slightly longer boot as well (chunky sole comes to about half way between my ankle and knee)

What impression do you want to give? Colourful, creative, restrained, formal, bold, what does the position require?

It's for an employment coach - so both professional but also very warm/approachable

Something like this?

Looks friendly:

Neat, adult, relaxed and only £18!

Don't know if the waist of this style would put you off? It's a quietly confident dress, imo (green, blue or brown)

Or just get a new shirt and wear it bloused over a skirt for this kind of look?

Hi there I just saw your post and unfortunately not only am I in the same position as you (preparing for my first job interview in a long long time and feeling quite nervous about it and not sure what to wear) but also I have no sense of style so I can't offer any practical advice but I just wanted to say, congratulations on getting the impending interview and good luck!

Oh this could be a good!

Thank you ❤️

Unfortunately I've tried a very similar dress and I just looked very pregnant 😂

Wishing you a great interview!

I use chat gpt to make outfits and get inspiration

Have you got a black blazer? I’m a same size as you and I’ve got some long jersey ish print dresses which I’ve worn with boots for work. Because I’m conscious of my stomach and bottom area chucking the black blazer over them make them look small and hide the bits I don’t like. And they are comfortable you’ve got no waist bands digging in
