OK - I don't get the idea of not wearing a cardi to an interview. Obviously not a big wafti type cardi, not a waterfall type, but a brightly coloured neat cardi could brighten up a plain navy, grey or black dress and be fine. Couldn't it?! With smart shoes or shoe boots?
I feel very out of it in terms of what people wear in the commercial sector or for management jobs and maybe it's not relevant for me anyway as I work in a para medical field, where I give advice and support to people who are often unwell. I sometimes visit them at home when they're too ill to be at work so a suit in that context is wrong. Other times I go to their workplace and meet with HR or management.
I wear dark tailored trousers, white/pale top and a bright short cardi with flat ballet shoes or medium height shoe boots. I am really very bored wearing this but feel like it's my self inflicted uniform!
Any ideas for work clothes that are more casual than a suit but professional looking. I think I need to ditch the cardi/trouser combo but not sure how!
