Dressed Up Pretty

Button Up: Express, Skirt: Thrifted Banana Republic, Heels: Steve Madden, Necklace: Rue 21, Sunglasses: Target

Yesterday I had an early job interview...I wore a version of this outfit. Instead of the full black skirt, I wore a pencil skirt. I always feel that a basic black pencil skirt always does the job. I think it went pretty well but interviews always leave me feeling a bit uncertain after even I feel confident that I could get the job. I start thinking, "did I answer that question right?", "I should have said this instead", or "I hope they didn't notice me twisting my ring around my finger"...you know stuff like that. So right after, I headed to Starbucks to relax with a bit of tea and marble pound cake...yum my favorite.

What do you do to unwind from after interview jitters? 


Enjoy the weekend <3  I'll still be celebrating my birthday!

  3. Cute outfit! I love the coordination between your necklace and your sunglasses :) I hope you get the job!! I'm on the hunt for a new one, too. I like to have a nice glass of white wine and watch some bad t.v. to unwind after my jitters, hehe

  7. I think of this outfit as very feminine and work/interview appropriate. I really like this one, probably because it's something i'd wear myself to work as well.
    Oh and...happy birthday!
