There's a difference between fitted and too tight! I'd say as long as nothing is hanging out, you're good.
I would think that a closed blazer looks more polished, but that likely isn't a huge deal at all.
I suppose it depends on the shirt. In most cases, yes, tuck it in. If it's a short blouse, you might be fine. If it ends up longer than your blazer, it would look odd if it wasn't tucked in.
I'm always happy to give my opinions! I like to think I have good fashion sense, even though I always wear my bummy clothes.

Okay, I'll be serious.
The lighting makes it kinda hard to tell! It's not like you're wearing leggings or anything suuuper tight. I personally don't think the pants are too tight, but if you have any doubts yourself, don't stick with the outfit. The last thing you want to worry about during an interview is your pants.

What!? Skirt suits are considered the most conservative... Pant suits are scandalous for some very conservative people.
The skirt's maybe a little short, but besides that, I actually don't see anything wrong with it, even for an interview. Maybe I'm weird.

That's what I was thinking!
Personally, I think that if it fits well, it's not toooo extravagant (like a zebra suit or something haha), and you're comfortable in it, then go ahead and wear it! I know there is a worry about "standing out in a bad way," but if you're sensible about it there is nothing wrong with a splash of color, and I think that your outfit still very easily fits under "professional" attire.
Cute! As long as your outfit isn't obviously inappropriate or makes you stand out in a bad way, no one will notice what you're wearing. I'm a big fan of outfit recycling, especially since I have only a handful of 'nice' tops and two pairs of dress pants!
Agree with ash. Color usually isn't a problem. It's how under-dressed you are, obnoxious patterns, or if something really fits poorly (like, far too large or too small) that makes you stand out in a bad way. I've seen jeans at vet school interview days, both males and females busting out of their clothes, and even leggings to list of a few no-no's. However, I don't really know that any schools specifically detract from your chances for wearing questionable clothing, but it certainly can't help.
Good luck at your upcoming interviews!!!
I wore a bright pink shirt on my interviews.
Sounds cool!!
Do you have a picture? I think something like this would be classy enough: http://www.brooksbrothers.com/Dog-Print-Tie/MA02036,default,pd.html (Although wow is that an expensive tie!)
I think that would be fine!
I agree either is fine, as long as it looks neat and you're not constantly playing with it or moving it out of your face.
Agree with foregoing perfume altogether. It's part of a routine for many women (myself included), but scent can be a powerful tool. Even if you use it sparingly, you'd be surprised at the unpleasant reaction someone can have if they don't like your perfume altogether. I'd totally believe it if someone told me they got a really bad impression of a person because they couldn't stand their 'smell.' There are a few girls in our class that use perfume that makes my stomach turn, regardless of how much they use. While they're extremely nice, I honestly can't be around them very long and sometimes find myself avoiding them. I'm sure we all have similar examples. Scent can bring up both positive and negative memories and be a huge distraction.
9th grade is probably around the time I realized a lot of my migraines seemed to occur once the boys got out of their locker room after gym class...
the biggest thing is that you are comfortable and confident.
