I have job interviews (for theatre, directing/artistic) coming up and because I have been losing weight, a lot of my clothes are starting to become too big on me.
I have a budget of $100 to buy a new kick-ass outfit but have no clue where to look. Every time I go out, I can never find anything (and perhaps that is because I live in North Carolina, yuck!). PLEASE help a gay out!
I'm SICK of the classic button-down shirt with jacket and jeans. While I want to look professional, I also want it to look artsy. I like layers. I'm not afraid of color, though I do love black. I'd love to be able to wear this not only for job interviews, but at party/social gathering events, too.
Thanks in advance!!

For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Go to a discount store - Marshall's or Filene's. Get the best pair of black pants they have. Then, buy the best colored dress shirt you can find and a tie that compliments it. If you aren't afraid of color, go for it- bright blue, with a yellow tie always gets me compliments.
Each time you are going to wear your outfit, get it laundered and pressed at a local dry cleaner. Make sure you look CRISP!

Posted: 2/20/09 at 12:02pmGo black, a nice pair of black slacks (not jeans) a black sweater and a black jacket. Simple clean and very New York Artsy look.

It's about making a lasting impression. Be unforgettable. Utilikilts are not only fashionable, but practical as well.
