Thanks for the advice. I've been thinking about doing just that, now I will. Thanks again. AW.bjornolf wrote:Keep your chin up and keep interviewing. Make sure to send them a thank you letter for considering you, and ask them to keep your resume on file for future positions. I've known several people who got jobs through a secondary opportunity like that, and in today's world of people lacking manners, it can set you apart a little.
Dissent. That's known as the "bootie effect" and is a no-no. With a business suit, the idea is to both avoid the bootie effect and to make the socks inconspicuous. Usually, this means matching the slacks. Dark blue suit, you can wear brown belt and shoes, but you should wear dark blue socks. If, with a dark blue suit, you choose black belt and shoes, go with either blue or black socks. With a dark gray suit, I go with black belt and shoes and dark gray socks, with black as a second but still acceptable choice.CathyCA wrote: Socks should match the shoes. So, if you're wearing brown shoes, wear brown socks that match the shoes. Black shoes get black socks. White sneakers get white socks.
The idea is to create a monochromatic line from shoes to the cuff or hem of the pants.
#2: Excerpt from a post on the topic at Sartorish:Interview Shoes, Belt and Socks
• Match your shoes to your belt (leather to leather). For example,
with a charcoal gray suit you should wear black shoes and a
black belt. With a navy suit, you can wear black shoes/belt, or
you can wear burgundy shoes/belt.
• Wear lace up shoes on interviews.
• Match your sock color to your pants color. For example, charcoal
gray socks would be worn with a charcoal gray suit.
Certainly, the socks must match either the pants or the shoes, and provide a smooth transition between hem and shoe.Matching the socks
