Today I'm heading south to the Texas A&M University campus as part of a program where young-ish alumni return and speak to students about jobs in the Advertising/Marketing field and how to get them. Needless to say, I feel super old since the graduating seniors are the same age as the 5th graders I babysat in high school.
As usual, I'm probably over thinking my outfit but I wanted to look professional yet approachable and not overdressed. And since that criteria applies for a lot of situations, I decided to play around on Polyvore and fantasy shop to assemble some outfits for this occasion. My outfit ended up being most like option 1 and will work well in a room full of students wearing workout clothes and flip flops.
You can talk to me, I'm casual and approachable.
Yes, you need an internship but you don't have to wear a suit.
