"That's an interesting outfit you've got there." Marlene commented, half amused, half surprised.

Lily bit her lip and looked down at her mustard formal shirt, black pencil skirt, and heels with a newfound sense of insecurity. "What's wrong with it?"

"The fact that it's actually appropriate for an interview." Marlene said, scribbling something onto a neon pink pad of post-it's. "Most go for a more...exposed look, let's say. They have more interest in getting involved with Mr. Potter on a more...personal level. I don't blame them though, he's quite fit. Personally, I'm more a fan of his partner from the other company-that Mr. Black bloke. But it's still unprofessional."

Lily felt like throwing up. James Potter was an old bloke, why would anyone want to get involved? And why would Marlene think he was fit?! Was that what people were into these days?

"Isn't he an old bloke?" Lily asked, biting her lip again.

Marlene looked at her with wide eyes and laughed hysterically, writing on another post-it with a look that resembled admiration.
