Chico's sells separates and you can get some good wardobe-building pieces there. It's spendy but buying a good pair of slacks and a shell that can both be worn with a variety of blazers or jackets is a good investment in my mind. They have a website: Chico's. I think I like the bright colors more than I like the style, particularly. ;)

Talbots is a bit stuffy for me, *but* you can get good interview suits there.

Hm...apparently there's a Chico's a couple of blocks from here. Wonder if they have anything on clearance, with the school year just started and big sales going on a lot of places.

*sigh* I wish I had more fashion sense. I honestly don't know what looks good and what looks like it really belongs on someone three times my age. Or...close to that, anyway. Or what looks...erm...not feminine, but not so much NOT so that I notice. So I'm scared of buying clothes, really. It's one thing when you're paying three or four bucks for an outfit...it's another entirely when you're paying a lot more for something you hope will last you years, and which won't look silly in an urban area where people are more aware of such things.

You ladies wanna fly out for the weekend and go interview shopping? ;-)

And now...I swear I'll shut up about this stuff for awhile...heh...
