    Hi all,

    I've to tag along in a meeting with my company next week and need to get something that resembles a suit! Unfortunately as I'm only an intern the money situation is not great, so I need something that looks the part but that I can afford!!
    Anyone have any recommendations?

    If you're very careful about what you pick out, penneys have some suits that look well enough

    Mango are good for cheap (ish) suits if you can stretch to that.

    H&M can be good for work clothes that aren't too expensive.

    I have a really good suit from New Look that's my nice interview suit then I just go to Dunnes for everyday work stuff. I prefer them to Penneys because they have the fake pockets on the back and I think my bum looks better with a pocket. Though I seem to have to go a size bigger to get the length right but I can live with that

    Thanks ladies! Went to New Look today and ended up going with a smart dress and blazer/suit jacket. Felt more me, I'll be able to wear the dress in the office with a cardie, plus I was having a bloaty crampy day so was not in the mood for shopping for trousers! I'm interning til Christmas and hopefully working for money after that so will invest in a good suit then, but this'll do me for now. Thanks!
