Fashion Advice for the College Intereview

<p>I skimmed the comments here and I don’t think anyone mentioned Banana Republic for girls: somewhat more expensive BUT great sales. The clothes also come in a variety of sizes. (One d just moved up from a 00P to a 0P :)) BR carries clothes suitable for business casual and business. Recently asked a friend of my d’s (hs senior) about the cute pants she had on, and was informed BR. Yes, the pants were khaki, but not stereotypical khaki pants: light khaki color, fitted, and worn with a cute v neck sweater, flats, and a Coach bag. The girl had come from church to an organizational meeting. She would have looked great at a casual college interview - not trying too hard, but appropriate. Note the mention “casual college interview” - I’m thinking Starbucks with an alum, on campus before or after a tour; some interview attire should be stepped up a notch above this, depending on with whom, where, and when. </p>

<p>Neither of my girls would have worn the clothes pictured for an interview. (Just asked my hs senior for her opinion and got: “Umm, the skirts/dress are a little short and the top a little low. Cute for something else, maybe.”) </p>

<p>And regarding my son :slight_smile: </p>
