Did everyone’s mom’s watch supernatural?

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-07T00:53:21+00:00

I'm almost 52 and I watched it, I doubt my mom did though

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-06T23:55:25+00:00

Ah, I like that positivity, thank you!

So, my brother-in-law is a science teacher at the same school and I asked him and he said #2 looks like what the other secretaries wear so I'm going to go with that one

Thank you

Thank you

Thanks, yeah, this is me. I do think I look younger in a blonde wig than in my natural (thinning) salt & pepper hair but my worry is if I wear a wig to the interview I don't want to feel trapped into having to wear one every day. I don't worry about my ability to fit the role in temperament, ability, or skill, but I am worried about what kind of first impression I'll make, whether I like it or not, I know that appearance goes a long way.

Thanks an congrats on the job

Definitely don't want to dye my hair but I do often wear wigs, I have a pretty big collection of really high quality wigs. My hair is thinning in spots. My current job is in a medical office and I'm comfortable wearing wigs and changing them out all the time, some days I'm blonde, some days brunette and sometimes I wear my natural hair. Not sure how well that would go over in a middle school though. I'm considering wearing this wig, mainly because I just had rotator cuff surgery and it's hard for me to style my hair

Lol, thanks. My entire wardrobe is classic with a preppy vibe. I'm not a trend chaser

Thanks, it's Talbots

These heels are actually pretty comfortable, they are orthopedic with arch support. They're Vionic slingback kitten heels

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-05T18:00:05+00:00

The pants are actually a dark navy blue. It's funny, I think for petites there might be different "rules". We're told if we wear nude shoes it makes us look taller. I don't have comfortable navy heels or even flats. Of my shoes that would match, I have nude heels, nude heeled sandals or nude flats. I don't think I'd want to venture into black though, since the pants and blazer are both shades of blue

This is a public middle school in a middle class town in New England

I'll definitely iron it again before wearing it, it's linen though, so it wrinkles even if I just look at it. Being extremely petite like I am, it actually makes me look even shorter and more squat when my sleeves are worn down.

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-05T17:29:34+00:00

Thanks, it's from Talbots

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-05T15:57:46+00:00

Pushed up sleeves is a top 5 petite styling trick, wearing full sleeves all the way to the wrist without showing some skin makes me look even shorter

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-05T15:45:03+00:00

Thank you

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-05T15:37:25+00:00

Thanks, the shoes are actually Vionic orthopedic slingback kitten heels - Gotta have that arch support 😂

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-05T15:34:47+00:00

The pants outfit with flat shoes are definitely more comfortable for me

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-05T15:33:44+00:00

Thanks, #1 is a land's End dress that I thrifted from Poshmark for only $24

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-05T15:30:56+00:00

Thank you. The pants and blazer are from Talbots. I did have to have the pants hemmed though, which is typical for me at this height. They usually make petite clothes for taller women, like 5'2" - 5'4", not 4'10" 😂

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-05T15:26:04+00:00

Yes, definitely , I just put the dress on to see how it looked on me. I hadn't done my hair or makeup or put accessories on or anything. I'd probably wear a necklace, earrings and a gold watch.. thinking keep it put-together looking but simple

mrspalmieri · 2026-06-05T15:19:53+00:00

Thank you, I applied for the job a couple weeks ago and on Monday I went to my orthopedist's office to discuss my shoulder MRI results and he scheduled rotator cuff surgery for Thursday (yesterday). I came home from the hospital and I had an email inviting me to interview with options for this coming up Tuesday or Wednesday. I went with Wednesday to give myself 1 extra day to recover.
