Navy blue suit, light blue shirt....er, what coloured tie?

[madamv]

Purple for my vote, and good luck! They'll be very lucky to have you

 

[cesare]

I'd go for the aubergine coloured one. Good luck, whatever it's for.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Fuck me, burgundy, lilac, aubergine-coloured.

Wear a colour the kids will have heard of ffs.

 

[cesare]

I've now seen that it's for an interview in Hull. Go for polyester.

 

[perplexis]

Has to be the one on the left I'm afraid.
oh and good luck!

 

[Corax]

ok. we need more pics.

one of you wearing the suit and shirt with each tie. and one with the jacket off and each tie (cos you won't teach your observed lesson with your jacket on, i bet).

And one in just your pants.

Just for fun like.

 

[Strumpet]

Purple!
Tons of luck. You got a winning smile, you'll do ok!

[AnnO'Neemus]

I was going to say first choice far left, second choice burgundy.

But really, your first choice should be to buy or borrow some new ties.

 

[Balbi]

Deffo Purple.

And yes, as soon as I can afford to go shopping - new ties.

Oh, and go fuck yourself about my knot tying

 

[cesare]

You could lessen the impact of either by going for a single knot

Lolz you added the bit about knot tying as I was posting

 

[Corax]

Second one looks much better.

You look very smart and professional in either btw. Good luck.

Do I know my urbans, or do I know my urbans?

[Strumpet]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!

the second one makes you look like a junior accountant, whereas the first looks much nicer than i thought i would

btw - is that a three-button jacket (or does it just button very high)?

I still think the aubergine one is the best. But if you're doing Hull, you have to get the right blend of FWC otherwise they'll get all nervous like

 

[Balbi]

3 button jacket, aye. it's the suit that got me the PGCE course, the T.A job before that and all.

 

[London_Calling]

Fuck me, it looks like Granny's Christmas present selection.

Purple is bolder (confident) without being cocksure. Blue would be John Major bland and a mistake.

 

[spanglechick]

it's very nice. i like a three button jacket - very mod.

I'm going to ignore the fact that it either needs pressing or that all the dressing has gone from the shoulder line. You are a PGCE kid, and as such can get away with it. Style is there - substance will come. And your next investment (apart from silk ties, white shirts and plain cufflinks) should be a summer-weight suit, anyway.

 

[Balbi]

the shoulders is mainly me trying very hard to put a freshly dry cleaned jacket on, over a shirt i've just pressed - for the benefit of people on the internet, without wrecking stuff

and i, for one, appreciate it.

 

[Balbi]

*frantically worries about everything, while realising that just making a sodding adult decision wouldn't have been the end of the world - after all i'm a fucking teacher - what with the course finishing today*

 

[FiFi]

You look very presentable in either.

Now calm down, breathe, remember you've just got through one of the hardest courses around and you'll be fine.

Did I remind you to breathe?

 

[johnnymarrsbars]

dark blue/charcoal suit.
get yourself a white shirt.
burgundy tie.
shine your shoes.black shoes.

 

[Corax]

remember you've just got through one of the hardest courses around

 

[FiFi]

Well, Teaching is not something I personally could do, so fair play to anyone who can get through that year.

 

[Ms T]

Definitely the first one in the pics of you wearing said ties. You look very nice, btw.

 

[ericjarvis]

I have a black tie with fluorescent lime green and yellow musical notes on it. It's available for hire for anyone who needs a tie that definitively won't go with anything.

 

[kittyP]

primary school, though. the burgundy one is very unfriendly.

The way some people turn up for interviews at my school and turn out to be some of the best staff we have ever had you would not believe!

I hope it went swimmingly? x
