For a Starbucks interview, be neat but comfortable. The point is that your clothing and appearance should not be a distraction for you or the interviewer. I do all my interviews at Starbucks, and the gamut of clothing I have seen run from nice jeans to skirts/pants/khakis, blouses/shirts, sweaters. I think your outfit is perfectly appropriate. On nails, just don’t go crazy with some crazy design or colors.

More importantly, be punctual (that means at least 5 minutes early). I usually offer to buy the interviewee a drink. I would not offer to buy the interviewer a drink. If you get there first, find a visible table and sit down. You might want to email the interviewer in advance and let him/her know what you will be wearing.

Good luck and have fun.
