[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can't even find a skirt suit on Jcrew, but the pencil skirts that go with the jackets are being worn without hose.

I doubt that is true for women of my age and stature (meaning JCrew is too young, and I am not entry or close to entry level).[/quote]

ITA.  I think much of the difference of opinion expressed throughout this thread illustrates a real generational difference.  I work in a very serious environment with women of all ages.  The older women (over-40 with more senior status) dress very traditionally.  The younger women (most of whom hold entry-level  positions -- not that there is anything wrong with that as we all start somewhere) are not ashamed to wear sheer blouses, short skirts, bare legs, and exceptionally high heels.

To each her own, I suppose.  As long as the office dress code supports it.  BUT, for an interview, I think you have to go as traditional and mainstream as possible.  It's always easier to ease up once you get the job than lose a job because you failed to know your audience.[/quote]
