But as graduation approaches many are preparing to join the work force. The following are some suggestions on how to look like a V.P. on an entry-level salary.<br /> <br /> THE INTERVIEW <br /> <br /> For the interview, keep things very buttoned-down. Assuming you're going to be wearing a suit, you can't go wrong with a classic pair of black dress shoes. Remember it's probably not bad to be a little more conservative for the interview and go with classic leather sole over rubber. <br /> <br /> Examples:<br /> Florsheim 18273 'Templin' Leather Oxfords Dress Shoes have genuine leather uppers for comfort and durability and a classic style that will never fall out of fashion. Leather-lining and a fully cushioned footbed provide a splendid interior and leather outsoles with non-slip heels blend high fashion with practicality.<br /> <br /> For a more sophisticated look, Mezlan 2013 Wingtips are handcrafted in Spain, and feature genuine deerskin and leather uppers for the ultimate in style, comfort and durability. A lightly padded footbed in combination with a leather lining will keep your feet cool and comfortable even under the toughest interviews.<br /> <br /> Always remember to keep your dress shoes polished and your heels unscuffed. And remember, your friends are all getting married soon, so you'll get your money's worth.<br /> <br /> WEEKLY WEAR<br /> <br /> Once you've landed the job, you can probably dress down a bit from your interview, as you want to be known for your performance, not your footwear. You'll want a couple of pairs of different colors, but you want to keep a professional look that will be in step with your office. <br /> <br /> Accounting Firm/Office Job<br /> This is probably a traditional office. Keep it simple – black, brown or oxblood work the best.<br /> <br /> Examples:<br /> Kenneth Cole 'Super Streak' with genuine leather uppers provides style, comfort and durability, and a generously cushioned footbed and durable outsole form a quality foundation. <br /> Steve Madden 'Exel' shoes have a smooth leather upper and rubber sole that provides slip resistance and makes for a more comfortable commute to and from the train.<br /> High Tech Company/ Advertising Agency<br /> You may have a little more latitude here. Think a little outside the box. Try a loafer or something with a little heavier sole.<br /> <br /> Examples:<br /> You don't have to completely leave college behind with Dr. Martens '8C12' Leather Wingtips. These shoes have a traditional wing tipped leather upper but also feature Dr. Martens world famous air-cushioned sole, and trademark yellow stitching around the sole.<br /> <br /> Comfortable and weather resistant Timberland 68582 'Cedar Breaks' Leather Sport Shoes have genuine leather uppers for comfort and durability. A generously cushioned footbed provides all-day comfort, and a non-slip rubber outsole is perfect for less-than-perfect weather.<br /> <br /> Investment Bank<br /> You're in the world where appearance is everything, and different is not necessarily good. You're making decent money so let it show on your feet. <br /> <br /> Examples:<br /> Bacco Bucci 'Columbo' Square-Toe Oxfords have a clean classic look with the comfort to go all day.<br /> <br /> Ralph Lauren 'Carlson' Leather Oxfords are made in England with premium calf-leather uppers. A leather outsole and non-slip heel insert combines high fashion with practicality.<br /> <br /> CASUAL FRIDAY<br /> <br /> Here's your chance to show your funky side. Try something athletic-inspired that will go with your khakis or jeans and show that you're not always Mr. Shirt and Tie. <br /> <br /> Examples:<br /> Steve Madden 'Stryker' Leather Casual Sport Shoes are comfortable and go from the office to your evening plans without requiring a change of footwear.<br /> <br /> If your office is super laid-back, try Medium's 'Expressionist' Slip-On Casual Shoes. A casual sporty slip-on with a Ballistic Fabric & Smooth Leather upper, a rounded toe, stitching accents, overlay detail and contrast colored stripe. <br /> <br /> Michael Ray is the president of Grapevinehill.com, the premier source for brand name shoes and accessories offered at 30-60% off retail on the Internet. Founded in 2002, the Company has sold more than $25 million in products, shipping from its headquarters in Danvers, Massachusetts to the doorsteps of happy customers around the globe.
