White Oxford Shirt, Burgundy Pleated Skirt, Camel Wrap Coat, Black Heeled Boot, Camel Leather Tote, Gold Necklace. A smart combination for interview in temperate weather, with the lightest colour sitting closest to your face.
An interview wants calm authority. The strongest safe move is a dark layer over a lighter base, so the eye lands on your face. Mild weather is forgiving: a light layer that comes on and off is usually all you need. The women's read of this day is usually one considered piece with quieter support around it, rather than several competing ideas.
- Keep jewellery and print to one item.
- Carry a layer for the evening drop.
- Choose one deliberate detail, a colour, a texture or a print, and keep the rest plain.
