Got an interview swiftly approaching and simply cannot decide on something to wear? I can help.

It can be quite nerve-racking when you are trying to pick out the perfect outfit for a big interview. First impressions are everything and the way you initially present yourself says a lot. I have compiled a number of different outfits for a few various job interviews. This is just a broad guideline, so please feel free to mix and match as you please!
Administrative/ Secretarial

For this look, I think you shouldn’t be too dressy. A skirt would be perfect with a pretty top neatly tucked in. Don’t over accessorize – just a simple silver bracelet or some pearl earrings. Don’t have a flashy purse either, you want to look professional, but also approachable. Add a cute little blazer to match and your look is complete.
Get the look:
Dress: Sugar Pie Ruffle Red Dress, Blazer: Business Boom Tweed Blazer, Bag: Carry On Mustard Yellow Purse, Shoes: Chinese Laundry New Love Black Pumps, Necklace: Subtle Indulgence Blue Teardrop Necklace.
Instructional

If you are trying to get a job in the education field, I would say it is okay to be a little more dressy in this case. I would suggest a dress, or a skirt, that goes past your knees with a flowy blouse that shows absolutely no cleavage. Match with a beautiful handbag, some simple heels, and some pretty jewelry and you are set.
Get the look:
Skirt: Forever and a Day Black Skirt, Top: Butter Rum Sheer Yellow Top, Shoes: Qupid Nadine 47 Red Burnished Braided Pumps, Tights: Hoodwinked Print Brown Tights, Bag: Obey Victoria Taupe Vegan Leather Handbag, Rings: The Alchemist Oval Gold Ring, Bracelet: Foreign Strands Chain Ring.
Sales and Marketing

With this ensemble, I would suggest an outfit that shows you know what you want. With sales, you have to present yourself well, in addition to performing to the best of your abilities. These two attributes coupled with a positive attitude will be sure to nail you that job. I would suggest a beautiful pencil skirt with some traditional black pumps and a matching black blazer. Match this outfit with a beautiful and bold bag and you will be sure to nail the interview!
Get the look:
Skirt: Final Draft Navy Blue Pencil Skirt, Top: Collective Concepts Golden Dlobe Teal Top, Jacket: Sands of San Sebastian Ivory Crop Jacket, Shoes: Qupid Onyx 43 Dark Taupe Curvy Platform Pumps, Earrings: Clear As Crystal Bronze Earrings, Bag: Madrid Maneuver Red Handbag.
Public Relations

Flashy is the best policy. Maybe I have watched Sex and the City too much with Samantha Jones sporting her best Gucci shoes and Chanel earrings, but I believe it is essential to over accessorize and wear your most expensive heels for this type of interview. The main thing I would advise is not wear too much makeup or perfume, that would just make a lovely look a little tacky.
Get the look:
Blazer: Be Like Blake Cropped Black Blazer, Jumpsuit: Lake Balaton Rust Orange Jumpsuit, Necklace: Zad Shield Armor Gold Necklace, Shoes: Qupid Neutral 173 Nude Two-Tone Patent Strappy Platform Pumps, Purse: Nine to Five Structured Black Handbag.
Fashion Industry

This is where I would suggest going all out. Wear your best accessories and your amazing heels. You want to create a bold statement with your outfit, giving the impression that the world is yours. The fashion industry is much more liberated than most other industries, where you can reveal your creativity through your outfit. I would suggest a bold nail polish to complete the look!
Get the look:
Dress: Motel Jenna City Scene Black Print Dress, Blazer: BB Dakota Byron Brown Blazer, Shoes: Luichiny Luv Lee Purple Combo Suede Color Block Platform Pumps, Bangles: Metals of Honor Bangle Set, Ring: Ad Hawk Gold Bird Ring, Belt: Fallen Leaf Black Belt, Purse: Moped Chronicles Fringe Blue Leather Purse.
Technical

This is an industry that has a very ‘get down to business’ look so you don’t want to be too flashy. I would suggest a pair of pants, a pretty blouse, and some flats. Match with a small handbag and some simple earrings and you are ready. I also suggest wearing your hair back to give a neat and polished look. Bring a sweater as well, since most of those office buildings are freezing.
Get the look:
Top: Enchanted Spirit Long Sleeve Cream Top, Pants: BB Dakota Hadley Black Pants, Blazer: Christie Brinkley Light Blue Blazer, Shoes: Chelsea Crew Leila Blue and White Spectator Flats, Earrings: Zad New Peacock on the Block Feather Earrings, Necklace: Twig Time Gold Leaf Necklace, Ring: Wingtip Silver Feather Ring, Bag: League of Extraordinary Gentlewomen Green Handbag.
Creative Arts

Similar to the fashion industry, a career in creative arts also has a much more liberating style. Whether you are going to be an art curator, art teacher, or a gallery attendant, you will be sure to rock the interview. I would suggest some three inch heels, nothing too high and overwhelming. A flowy and simple dress with a light blazer and an airy scarf. Adorn some simple earrings and wear your hair in loose curls. Something about even describing this outfit makes me want to go to a museum so I can sport this look!
Get the look:
Top: Abbey Road Long Sleeve Navy Blue Top, Maxi Skirt: Mink Pink Bad Romance Red Floral Maxi Skirt, Bag: Fair and Square Brown Leather Handbag, Bracelet: Quill Call Feather Friendship Bracelet, Ring: Ozma Green Rhinestone Ring, Necklace: Lift Off Gold Feather Necklace, Shoes: Chelsea Crew Sari Taupe Suede Oxford Wedges.
Enjoy looking classy, ladies
