The Job Interview- how vintage can you go?

[Puzzicato]

I don't have any vintage suits either, but do have a black 40s gabardine skirt and a black 40s jacket that was my mother's. Both have a little detailing on them at the pockets (swirl details made with fabric bias, not rhinestones or anything fancy). This can be worn with closed toe shoes, a white shell and some pearls. Simple makeup (no red lipstick) . I'm hoping this will work out all right and be the right mix of fresh and conservative for the job environment.

I think that sounds pretty and appropriate, if you don't have time/money to shop for a suit.
