 Welcome back to my channel guys. It's your girl Coco styles and on this channel. We talk about beauty fashion and lifestyle I also run a blog called Coco styles NYC where I talk about fashion and how to style certain items for your body type So in today's video, I decided to do a video on dressing for a job interview Now Let's see. There are some jobs where the dress code itself is very very casual However, you do not want to go on an interview wearing What you would wear in the office if the dress code is casual. So I'm gonna start off by saying this is for my ladies number one Let's talk about skirts and dresses. You want your skirt and your dresses to be knee length or below nothing above that and the reason why is you do not want to draw attention to yourself as Trying to be hmm. I don't even want to use the word scandalous You just want to present yourself in a proper way people are always looking at you. They're always judging you We all hate to hear it, but I say this over and over and over again People love to judge you so don't give them a reason to so that's number one Keeping your skirts in your dresses below your knees or at your knees number two would be your Shoes so okay You guys are gonna kill me but when it comes to shoes in an office in a corporate setting I would say three to four inches or some flats and the reason why is because anything higher than that It can come off as I guess to them a street wear street style, I guess or maybe even Street Walker So just to avoid any of that in the corporate setting and to be comfortable I would say three to four inches some people don't like three inches because it's a bit too short for them So four inches I would say is a good number to stick with so that is number two Your heels and your shoes Number three would be your pants so pants and trousers and stuff like that Ladies do not wear leggings to an office. It's just not appropriate for your office gear Try out some trousers. You have trousers that are Three-quarter or ankle length. Those are cool for the spring and the summertime Even sometimes in the winter you can wear some pumps with that and you could also wear some boots with that also Kind of like tucking in your boots and just having the pants at your ankle And ladies stay away from super tight pants. I know a lot of you ladies are very Shapely so you can't avoid that However, if you are in an office, I'm not saying to completely cover up because you cannot Hide what God gave you I would say make sure your blazer covers it and you're not drawing any attention to yourself It's not your fault, but I've seen so many things where people try to point out the woman Because her pants are tight and it's not that they're tight. It's just that she's shapely. You can't avoid your shape You can't chop it off, right? So But if you can't avoid anyone saying anything I would say to just wear a blazer that comes on a little bit longer and make sure your shirt It's nice and collared and you're good to go So that is number three Your trousers number four. I would say is jewelry Okay, I have on a pair of studs Right now. I don't have on a necklace because of the way my shirt is cut well my dress And I have on a simple ring normally I would have on a watch But I was working and my watch kept hitting so when it comes to jewelry Keep it at a minimum if you are in a Casual setting You can probably get away with different earrings, but if you're going on an interview I would say stick with some gold ball studs or some diamond studs. They could be fake They could be real whatever floats your boat Keep a simple ring and a nice watch and that's it Don't go over the top on your interview because you're there to pretty much sell yourself to get this job Yes, you want to look appropriate, but you also are Selling yourself to get a job. So that is number four your jewelry Number five would be oh my goodness. It's my favorite makeup listen with today's culture with contouring and Highlighting and all that good stuff. You have to still be cautious of what you're putting on your face when you're going into an office Or on an interview so no red lipstick guys. Do not wear a red lipstick on an interview Okay, I would say up for natural makeup Natural lashes do not wear those lamb chop lashes ladies Natural lashes. I'm not saying to not wear them to not wear lashes at all But just make sure you're not wearing anything that is super long and noticeable. You don't want them to see that first I would say also wear natural makeup If you contour your nose and all that good stuff, just make sure everything is blended You don't want to walk in there looking like a mannequin In natural lipstick, you know, maybe a brown A nude color stuff like that. That's number five So keep your makeup natural when you're going on an interview and I'm gonna add number six in which will be your hair Very controversial, but natural hair. This is for my black women. I love natural hair I don't care how you wear it if you wear it in a twist off you wear it in an afro Just make sure that it is done. I don't care I like twist outs and afros are pretty cool for the ones who actually can actually wear an afro Because some folks hair done don't actually do that But if you do wear that just make sure your hair is neat if you have straight hair For any woman woman of any other culture Make sure your hair is combed. If you like curls, you can wear curls Do you have a bob wear a bob? Just make sure your hair is actually done and just make sure you look like you put effort into yourself Because you had an interview guys So those are my quick little tips for anyone who is going on an interview And I'll try to pop in a lot of pictures as I was as I'm speaking for you guys because I do feel like it's important For our younger generation to see how to dress going in an interview because the internet is so Convoluted with so much fashion that I think sometimes they don't know how to put on put on a actual corporate outfit for an interview so The good thing is that once you get the job you could actually go through the handbook and determine if there is a casual dress code a Business professional dress code or even a smart casual dress code So those are all three different things and guys I am gonna do a video on all three of those so you guys can know what they are But again, make sure you are looking into the handbook to see what the dress code is and That should help you on your interview Well, actually not on your interview help you once you once you get the job guys So if you like videos like this Please comment below and if you stay to the end of this video, please comment Cocoa we see you and guys don't forget to follow me on Instagram my cocoa styles and why and my blog Like I said cocoa styles NYC and guys also if you have not known this about me I do have an online boutique cocoa styles Lux and I'm gonna get that in below for you guys and also I Also do styling services for corporate professional women who are looking to take their careers to the next level Sometimes your style is actually holding you back and I don't want to just say style But how you're presenting yourself and showing up at work So if you guys want more information on that comment below, it's a really exciting thing for me I've been doing it for some time But I'm really starting to really put it out there because I'm targeting corporate professional women So I catch you guys in the next one.
