Okay people of fab I need your opinion..
I have a job interview on Monday. I've been for plenty in the past and I'm not nervous at all.
However recently I'm trying really hard to be a more confident dresser. Less black more colours.
I've been admiring a pink shift dress and tempted to purchase it for interview purposes. Is this a too bold a colour??
And because it's formal ill be wearing with 40D black tights and black stilettos |

New people don't know the current "you". You can rock up dressed in a more bold way and they will know no different and accept that new "you".
I would go bold. |

I don't think so, although of course it depends on the job/company. But it's something I'd wear, and you could always tone it down with a black or grey jacket. |

This!
It very much depends on the industry though... I work in a law firm and it's old school so if someone turned up in something that wasn't conservative interview clobber, it would immediately be assumed by the stiffs that said person was too garish/stood out too much/wasn't a yes person.
I wore a pillar box red suit jacket for my interview and I got the job. They should have known better really. 
What sort of job is it you're going for? As long as you feel comfortable and confident in your outfit, you'll be grand. Reinventing yourself into a new job is a great thing to do. |

It's a job with a local authority. Working with the public. I think it's fairly in keeping with some and smarter than others.
I use to work in finance and would have sexy shoe day once a month and our clients loved it lol |

"I always plump for navy suit. Lighter blue shirt with nave tie. That said a good trick if you know who is interviewing you. Try find them on Facebook and mirror their image"
Powder blue is apparently one of the most successful colours in business |
