Need to be Suiting It Up?

Finding A Perfect Suit For The Interview On A Budget...


As a senior it is the time to start the interview process for landing the entry job or internship. This post is for my fellow class of 2012 guys... So guys how many of you have the perfect suit? I just recently purchased two both for under $300. I know as an student having a budget is usually problem when buying anything and $400-$1000 suits is out of the question if your on your a budget. 
The first suit I purchased, was a basic black suit which include the jacket and pants.  This suit is from Macy's from GreenHills in Nashville, TN and was retailed for $495 but I purchased it for $149.  
The second suit I purchased, was a  medium gray pinstripe light wool suit for $139. Which included the jacket,vest and pants from Giorgio's Menswear in our local Greenwood Mall.  
For suggestions those as I was thought basic black is the suit you should wear for any interview. The buttoned down should be white or a soft calm color try to stay away from bright and bold because you never know who your interviewer is. As a fashion student basic black and white buttoned down can sound boring but you can always change up your style after receiving the job offer/internship offer. 


Until next time... Hope finding the right suit is made little easier knowing where and what colors are great to have for any interview or heading out in the workforce. Also remember shop smart and check the markdowns for the great budget suit.
