I'm hoping you ladies can help me out, because I'm thoroughly stuck.
I have a job interview on Thursday for a position in research administration at a major university. I'd love to work there, the job sounds great. But I have nothing to wear. I'm five and a half months pregnant, which means my usual wardrobe is pretty much useless. I have some clothes from my previous pregnancy, but last time I was this pregnant, it was December.
If you had, say, $200, and needed ONE outfit that you could interview in, where would you go?
Re: Interview Outfit for a Pregnant Mama?
With a $200 budget, I'd probably buy a suit. Or a nice dress to wear with a jacket.
So I hope to do. But where do I find one?
Sorry ... check out figure8maternity.com, jcp.com (under dresses and skirts) and motherhood.com (they have a whole suiting section).
Good luck (with the shopping and the interivew)!
I don't know if you have started looking yet, but if you have, I feel your pain. I had to buy a suit when I was 7 mos pregnant with DS, and I had a horrible time. Aren't there pregnant women who have to wear a suit every day? And exactly what situation are you in that you need to wear a suit, but it is cool if said suit has a big bow under your boobs? Unless they tiny and on cute pumps, bows are generally not part of a professional wardrobe.
Anyway, I ended up finding one that was okay at A Pea in the Pod. I wouldn't say I was in love with it or anything, and pants, shirt, and jacket did cost close to $200. I do love the "secret fit belly" though, and I still wear those pants and shirt ALL of the time.
