All business women should own at least one matching two piece suit.
Jeffrey Smith

The two-piece suit (skirt and jacket) is a familiar and timeless business standard. By changing your blouse or sweater top you can change the look of your suit. Changing pantyhose color and shoes is another inexpensive way to change the look of your suit.

Chose solid colors or subtle weave patterns or plaids (test patterns by looking at the garment from across the room - a good subtle pattern will look solid from a distance.)

Skirts and jackets do not have to be identical for everyday business wear, however, a matching matching business suit is always the best choice for interviews, meetings, and more formal business events.
