What should one wear to a job interview to work at a 5 star hotel?

Q. My brother got a call for a job interview and he said they told him to dress appropriately as if he was to work for the hotel. He said he's gonna wear part of his tuxedo, like the white shirt, tie, black vest, slacks, and dress shoes. I thought it was a little weird that he's gonna wear a black vest, it makes it too fancy. But maybe that's how it should be. Do you think it's good or what do you recommend?

A. While men may have less variety when it comes to workplace attire, they also are subjected to more stringent definitions of what is appropriate for the office. When it comes to deciding what to wear on an important interview, in almost every situation the more conservative the suit, the better the choice. Very few men can wear suits right off the rack, and you should always take your suit to a tailor to ensure that it fits you properly before wearing it on an interview.

Navy Blue
Choose a two piece, solid colored, matched suit constructed from wool or a wool blend for your interview. Navy blue is a dark blue color. Do not wear a powder blue suit or a bright blue suit, or try to match your jacket with pants that are another color. Buy your pants and jacket together, so that you can ensure that they are exactly the same shade of navy blue. Unless you are interviewing for a job in a creative field such as graphic design, you should choose a jacket with two or three buttons. Four buttons may look too trendy and adding a vest looks ostentatious.

Charcoal Grey
Charcoal grey is a dark grey color. For men, lighter colored neutrals such as dove grey and tan are seen as too informal for a job interview. Traditionally, black suits are seen as too flashy. Even though other men in the office may be wearing these colors, you need to wait until you are actually hired before you start experimenting with your look. At an interview, you want to be remembered for your qualifications and what you say, not how you look.

What to Wear with Your Suit
Choose a full-sleeve, button up shirt in white or light blue, even if it is summer. Wear a conservative silk tie that is no less than 3 1/4 inches wide. According to Career Builder, image consultants recommend a red tie for a navy blue suit or a burgundy tie for a grey suit. If you want to wear a tie with a pattern, choose a subtle pattern. Do not wear a tie with cartoon characters on it. Wear black socks that cover your ankles, and black leather shoes with a matching belt. Carry a briefcase or portfolio with you instead of a backpack or loose papers, and remove any jewelry other than a wedding ring or watch.

How can I completely change my clothing style?
Q. I always wear jeans, tee shirt, tennis shoes, and a sweatshirt. Occasionally, I'll get dressier. What I'm asking is how I can go from tee, jeans, and sweatshirt to more fashionable. I'm in high school so there is a budget, so nothing crazy please. Also, I want a variety of styles. Not just girly or boho, a selection, variety. Also, if you could list the stores were I could find the items that would be helpful or maybe where you shop. Thank you.

A. Try Toms instead of sneakers. They're still comfy but also can be dressed up or down. DIY your t-shirts with cut-outs and crop them if you want something a little more fun (you don't have to crop them really high!). Last throw in colored skinny jeans (Forever 21 has tons ranging in price from $15.80-$29.80 so they're affordable). Instead of a regular sweatshirt try an oversized sweater or a Brandy Melville-esque sweatshirt (it doesn't have to be brandy just the oversized style they have). To all of these you can add some fun necklaces and earrings to keep them casual but still less plain. A denim shirt is also a good, trendy, affordable piece that you could throw over a dress or a t-shirt to add a little extra to your outfit. Also a good circle skirt would be a good addition because you can tuck your t-shirts into them (I do it all the time) to be casual but also dressy at the same time.

I hope this helped!
