MADEWELL NECKLACE + TOP, J. CREW CARDIGAN, FOREVER21 TROUSERS, WILFRED BELT, NINE WEST SHOES, MICHAEL KORS WATCH
It has been forever since I last blogged, and I apologize! I am currently going through a transition period, and the past few months involved lots of moving around. I'm now back in Canada - in Toronto at the moment, but will be in Vancouver this coming Saturday.
I wanted to dedicate this post to the topic of dressing for job interviews or the office. I had an interview last week, and found myself wondering what would be appropriate to wear. From what I learned, it's important to learn the culture of the office you're interviewing for (or already work at). Some are very conservative and formal, where others allow for a more creative wardrobe.
When in doubt, neutrals are always a good idea! Blacks, beiges, nudes, whites - these are all great colour choices for office attire. I threw in a chunky, fun necklace to give the outfit a little more character.
A tip for girls with short legs like me: sometimes, we buy trousers and they are full pant length even though they're supposed to hit around the ankle. Boo! When that happens, try to wear a shoe with a comfortable heel instead of flats - it'll elongate your legs and pick up the pant from the floor! A cuffed trouser can also help!
It's a new year with new prospects - good luck to all who are starting something new in 2012!
