How to Style a Flannel Shirt for a Job Interview
For a job interview, your flannel shirt needs to read polished, not weekend-casual—layer it under a cardigan or pair it with a pencil skirt to shift the tone from off-duty to put-together. The structured tote reinforces that you're there to work, while white sneakers keep things modern without crossing into overly informal territory.
