What should I wear to an interview? I don't want to go too dressed up, but something appropriate and cute! Pics would be apriciated :)

Business attire. Simple dress pants that are not tight. Or a nice skirt that doesn't go above 4 inches of your knees. Paired with a nice cardigan set or a simple dress shirt that is not low cut. If you wear a skirt wear stockings (flesh tone is fine) and no sky high heels...closed toed or flats. Keep your hair and makeup simple.

I've interviewed many people for the line of work I am in and you would not believe the number of people I've passed on simply due to how they present themselves. Presentation is everything.

Listen to Shelly, listen to Shelly, listen to Shelly. While I've never interviewed anyone I've always been able to tell right off the bat if a person is going to get the job or not based on what they wear when they come in to get the application and what they wear to the interview.

Avoid jeans, bright makeup, large earrings, sandals (I wore peep toe heels to my last two interviews but they were appropriate colors and heel height), low cut shirts, tight slacks, and to short of skirts. To my interview with my last job I wore a neutral pink toned blazer, white t-shirt underneath (not like tank top material but the cotton that looks like a full shirt, khaki pants, and my shoes had a mix of color between the khaki, pink, and a little bit of black. My earrings were small hoops, and my makeup was neutral toned as well.

Don't forget to pull your hair out of your face and keep your makeup light and simple. Your everyday eyes, a hint of pink blush and a light pink lipstick are always a good option!

Just a quick tip: don't neglect your nails! Clean, trimmed, and neutral polish (if any). If you have acrylics, keep them on the short side and a natural shape (no claws or duck feet). Attention to little details like your nails shows that you take care of yourself and that you keep track of your image (if that makes sense).

I agree with Emily. I had hideous nails wheni was 13 and had a modeling interview. (I'm really bad about picking my nail polish when I'm nervous) and the lady noticed... Very embarrassing. Although, I was only 13.

I always go with simple. A nice dress pant and shirt and I like to add a blazer. For makeup I would go simple. Jewelry, I go with studs and nails very neutral.
