Today was my big interview at Dream Company. I actually had a series of three interviews with a total of seven people, so it was a long day - but well worth it. I aced it and now it's just a matter of whether I fit what they are really looking for.

I was undecided on what to wear right up to this morning. I bought this suit and it fits like a glove, but Nate eventually convinced me to go a bit more conservative with this navy pinstripe. It's not quite the full on black suit, but still fairly formal. Only later did he tell me he picked it because it made me look 'hot'. Um, not what I was going for, but thanks.

Well, another sign of the season has arrived - that's right folks, I finally broke down and busted out the tights today. It's chilly and rainy here today but I wanted to get this dress in before it gets downright freezing. And truth be told, I forgot to shave my legs last night, so tights were the easiest cover-up to my memory lapse! And thus an outfit was born...

Imagine my surprise when I moseyed on over to Fab Finds Under $50 at lunchtime and discovered I was right on target with the Inspiration Calendar today - it seems I'm not the only one who thinks a LBD is the perfect antidote to the Monday blues! I punched mine up with pinstripe tights and some killer booties. The combo garnered rave reviews at work today - even from the normally fashion-impaired men. Score one for the pinstripes!

Sweater: The Limited

Tank: New York & Company

Pants: Express

Necklace: The Limited

Bracelet: New York & Company

Shoes: Wild Diva (via Burlington Coat Factory)

Excuse my wrinkled, shiny faced self. I got zero good pictures this morning, so I had to try again when I got home, so I'm a little worse for wear.

This outfit from my first week of work is the featured look on Fab Finds Under $50's inspiration calendar today, so of course I had to play along! I don't normally wear a lot of pink but I loved this sweater as soon as I saw it. However, I'm not 100% thrilled with the outfit. I feel a little plain in it. I think I will belt it or pin it with a brooch next time.
