What I'm Wearing: Job Interview

I lost my job last week. I don't have much to say about the whole deal besides the fact that I knew it was coming for quite a while and it was disappointing and stressful, but I'm okay with it and I'm looking forward to finding something new and fabulous (although, since I'm a big fan of networking, I suppose I should put it out there that if anyone knows of an online marketing or social media position, either in or near Philly or something that would allow telecommuting, send it my way at whatthefrockblog@gmail.com.)

Okay. Enough about that. This is a fashion blog, right?

I had a job interview last week, for a social media position at a retail/fashion brand. An acquaintance of mine works there, so I contacted her beforehand to find out the dress code of the company. She said that the company was super-casual, and that I wouldn't need to wear a suit to the interview. And this was a relief, since I don't own a suit!

Here's what I wore. It's professional and polished, but stylish, and I didn't feel like I was wearing a "business lady" costume like I usually do when I go on interviews.
