Help: Quick Question . . .

Question: Can I wear this color suit right now?

I feel like it is really a summer suit because of the color combined with the fabric. It is light weight and "cotton" but has a bit of a sheen to it . . . But, this is Arizona (think 75 degrees and sunny) after all, so I don’t really think the fabric matters at all (it's a nice suit - bad picture). I have to go do an interview here in Tucson for a judicial clerkship, so I just wanted to know if anyone had an opinion . . . Should I just go get a black/grey suit now (I kinda grew out of my old one . . . oops) or will this one work okay for right now?

(Ignore the wrinkles)
Side Note: Now, if it were up to me, I wear something fabulous like this . . .
Or this . . .
But they are pretty insistent on us wearing a boring ol’ suit. Oh well.

Why are both models tilted to one side? Are these nautical fashions? I have always thought a one piece jumpsuit with lots of big pockets, Velcro straps, and reflective tape for easy nighttime visibility would be cool. Though, it must be said I am rarely consulted on fashion.

That was very helpful, Adam. Allison?

Hey Katie!
It's Meredith Guillot, your old East Village roommate! I found your blog through your Facebook status and I check up (although not in a stalking way0 on you, Patrick, and the puppies fairly regularly. Anyway, with regards to the suit question, I say wear it! My roommate right now is a Penn law graduate who is currently doing a judicial clerkship (in Philadelphia). She has several suits of that color that she wears on a regular basis. So,I think it'll be fine. Hope you don't think I'm stalking by following the blog! Hope other things are well.

Katie! Well you already have my vote for yes, and you can wear the other two outfits as soon as you get the job. Good Luck on the interview! I know you are gonna knock their socks off :) Can't wait to hear how it goes. Hugs

Yes you can wear it! I would pair it with a black knit top and black heels to winterize it! or you can go for the latest trend, which is a black top with bright florals: http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=360350&CategoryID=40047
