Colleges and Universities A-Z Brown University

<p>do you guys think one could do striped blazer, open-neck shirt, jeans, and dress shoes for interview? it’s at one of those independent coffee shop places, and the interviewer is an assistant professor of environmental studies, Brown '90</p>

<p>and the jeans are dark, euro-ish ones. (i think it was Mexx or something other euro thing.)</p>

<p>if you feel comfortable wearing that, it's fine. The type of venue also matters - if it's a Starbucks or equivalent, you may want to be more casual, but always have ironed, clean and non-ripped clothes, :) closed shoes, and a shirt with sleeves. If it was a faculty club setting, your choice would be perfect.</p>

<p>But most important - within those parameters, wear something you feel at ease and self-confident in.</p>

<p>You don't want to be dressed nicer than your interviewer. Consider nixing the blazer and dress shoes. Jeans and open-necked shirt are OK.</p>

5

<p>dress as anything that's respectable...it's not a big deal.</p>

6

<p>that sounds cool</p>

7

<p>wear jeans, an open neck (collared?) shirt, a blazer, and dress shoes ANYWHERE and i will personally come and kill you, make you dress better, then kill you again.</p>

8

<p>uh oh. so why the rage, claysoul?</p>

9

<p>in any case, i sort of realised that jeans with blazer and dress shoes did look a bit vulgar, so i figured that i would wear cords instead</p>

10

<p>Please, just wear what you're comfortable in! I personally would wear jeans (not torn though!) and a smart polo/casual shirt...</p>

<p>(this coming from a girl, though :))</p>

<p>jeans are hotter
wear jeans
i wore jeans to my interview... skinny jeans, but im a girl
i hope ur jeans aren't skinny lol</p>

12

<p>they are sort of in-between, really.not like punk rocker or emo skinny. but like just very straight-ish. sort of designer skinny ish excepti i dont think the price qualified it for designer haha.</p>

13

<p>thats good.
guys look good in straight jeans.
as long as they look nice, they're probably okay
i think you should just wear a nice dress shirt on top? where is your interview btw</p>

14

<p>quasi-chic ish sort of indie cafe.</p>

15

<p>and dietcoke.....local weather too cold for just a shirt.</p>

16

<p>jeans and dress shirts with blazers are just a huge pet peave of mine. :)</p>

17

<p>I think I can understand your peeve, claysoul. There are some guys I know who wear their rock & republic jeans with really sassy blazers. Looks absolutely pretentious. Although in my case my blazer is a lot more trad. think Brooks Brothers. Heck I figured my brown or blue pants look a lot better with the blazer anyways.</p>

<p>I think it sounds perfect (:</p>
