Vogue 7881 in the blue at the top. Assembled with the outer half of the waistband on, just needs waist facing, hem and other finishing touches.
As per September 15, "But, this is all subject to change. If I need to change jobs, my wardrobe plans will change accordingly."
As of September 18, I am unemployed so I need to be a bit more formal and conservative. Now, a year ago I would have felt fine interviewing in a red jacket or a nice knit top, times have changed. I have been to 3 recruiters in the last few days and the wildest thing that I have seen was a mauve scarf.
