Okay, the fashion crisis begins. Is a (ETA: dark) teal cordoroy blazer too casual for a job interview if paired with black dress pants, and a black dress shirt?

This is for a librarian job at a media corporation, and I think the dress standard is pretty casual.

I recommend a lighter top. Mabe cream?

I forget where you are Sue. If your area is more conservative, I'd go a little more formal( but only if you have it ) . Oddly, I d go more formal for a public library.

Anybody else watching Commander in Chief? That scene with the storybook cracked my shit UP

I don't have any light tops. Unless we talk paisley. No wait! I have one white blouse--but white is so not flattering for me.

Beth, I'm in Nova Scotia. And it's an in-house librarian job for the CBC.

I could do green wool skirt, black or grey shirt, black cardigan.

Brown herringbone pants, light blue turtleneck.

After 8 years of working in one place, my work wardrobe really leans towards funky casual.

How about red linen dress, black cardigan.

Is red too aggressive? Because I have the same dress in blue, it just has an above the knee hemline. And it is November.

I think it sounds fine, Sue. But If you think there might be an expectation of more formality - I'd go with the skirt. I like the all black with blue because it is a sharp combination.

I really kind of want to wear my "ugly outfit" Brown herringbone pants, brown/moss green/peacock blue striped shirt, and red sweater vest. It's kind of ugly, but it works!
