Ok - if I were to take you shopping at Penney's, here's what I'd suggest: Basic pant suit like this. Maybe not this one, per se. But something like it. And wear it with a simple tank like this. (the cami that sells with it is not very pretty.)

At Chico's I'd recommend black slacks with a jacket like this and a tank with bit of color.

At Talbots, I'd recommend something like this. It's not black, but it's sharp and isn't too old looking.

Hey...that's not a bad rundown.

I guess I could at least look quickly at Penney's. I didn't look at anything other than one piece dresses and clearance dress sets. And it's close.

Likely I'll wimp out and go the cheap route, though. That...and honestly, I've never really owned anything seriesly dressy.
