costume

I wore this lovely outfit to an interview for an internship at a museum. I scored the interview and I'd like to think it's because of my awesome style. Haha. Actually, I'd like to think it's because of my conversational skills and sweet resume. I will be interning part time in the costume and textile department of a D.C. museum. I can't wait! I get to spend my summer researching antique dresses and quilts and hopefully putting together an exhibit for next year.

I do love this outfit though. I'll probably be repeating it with different variations over the summer. Ideally I would have paired it with pumps but it was cold and rainy the day of my interview. Also, I love this trench coat. I bought it six years ago on my first trip to Paris. It languished in my closet through high school but I rediscovered it and put it to use last spring and this spring. Hooray for long lost clothing!
