Thanks everyone for your tips! Almost everyone I've seen at the office was wearing a suit, so this is what I focused on when I went out shopping today. I stopped at 2 goodwills to see if I could find anything cheap. I did happen upon a nice beige wool suit for $8, also a polyester green suit. While I was there, I picked up a few blouses and knit sweaters. There was an after christmas sale at macys, so I got a nice black jacket, some shoes, and other little things like slips and camisoles. Mom sent up a nice silk suit she found somewhere around her, but it's a little too small! I guess I'll keep it just in case I ever lose weight.
