If you don’t want to wear the darker colors, why not go for a suit a bit brighter? Go for a light blue or grey suit, make sure there are no visible wrinkles and you are good to go.

If you don’t want to go with the classic button at all, try a different blouse instead. Try one of your fancier blouses paired with your trousers. Make sure it is not too revealing and that it is work appropriate.

8) Go for a Color Combination That Works Best for You

Finding the right interview and work attire can be hard. The first step to determining what to wear is to figure out what colors work best with your hair color and skin tone. You can go with the blue and white, black and white, blue and tan, or black and grey. Mix and match, experiment and figure what works best for you and stick with it.
