DeltAlum, I'm curious as to why you think a woman looks more professional in a skirt suit. I'm not critical of your opinion at all, but I want to understand it because I don't.

I almost always wear pants to interviews, partly because I feel like I'm not supposed to so I do it anyway, and partly because I have a tattoo on my ankle and I always feel shy about revealing it at interviews -- so it's a trade off, I guess. I also prefer pants because I HATE HATE HATE pantyhoes. I think that if we were like other countries where women wear skirts without pantyhoes to work, I would wear skirts much more often. I also like to wear open toed shoes whenever I can, but not to an interview of course. So that means pants or a longer skirt -- yes, even to appear in court. Nobody has ever said anything to me about it not being appropriate, so I'll keep doing it.
