Well suited without a suit ;)



Let me be a little bit blunt here, I don't like wearing suits.
Yes you may argue that some suits are actually very fashionable or chic, which I agree. However, I can't imagine myself wearing suits to work everyday. Why? Because it kills my mood, my creativity, my color sense and even my appetite.
I am not trying to be offensive because I understand that there is a reason to wear suits to work at some places. Its just , I can't see myself wearing it every single day. BLEHHHH

Anyway, going back to my interview.... I am looking for jobs lately because I will graduate in May. I do have suits but I try to avoid wearing them. However, you know the professional impression is still important, so here I am trying to pull off a professional look without wearing suits.

The reason that I am posting this outfit is because it received plenty of compliments and some interviewers did say that they like my pants 8-) Tweed pants/jackets/skirts can always give you a classy look. By the way, I am only 158cm so I love to pair my cropped blazer with high-waist pants because it makes me look taller than I am 8-) By the way, how do you like my statement necklace? Remember when you go to interviews, don't try to look overly accessorized with bangles, dangling earrings, crazy chunky necklaces, or most scary: freaky pointy long nails with weird colors .....

Anyway, I wish you guys best of luck and thank you for reading :)

  5. Those are a great pair of pants. Not all suits have to be boring. Have you considered prints or brights instead of black and gray?
