Help me find an interview outfit

I have an interview later this week, with a high street fashion retailer. The job i am going for is nothing to do with fashion, but obviously I don't want to look like the normal frump I am.

I am a size 14/16 (more of a 16 lately), with lots of lumps and bumps to cover, and big of nork (34G). Everything in my wardrobe is black or grey, with a bit of navy or brown. I really want something smart, with a bit of colour and which doesn't make me look 20 years older than I am.

Ideally I would spend up to £150, or more if it is something that I will get to wear lots.

I leave myself open you your suggestions Grin

Ok, how about...

Blue dress

This dress is reduced and would look fab with contrasting shoes/jacket

Hobbs Manor skirt and jacket in green if you fancy a suit

Blouse to wear with a Red or blue pencil skirt?

Do you want a suit, dress or separates?

oooh i like the LK Bennett one. I fancied getting a dress, but separates would be good as well.

How colourful do you want to go?

This blouse would work well with a sand coloured skirt, with coordinating belt and shoes- perhaps red?

Thanks for your response. I haven't looked in Miss Selfridge for years! I don't want anything too loud, just to get away from greys and black.

Hobbs has got 25% off lots of tailoring at the moment. Though most of if is black or grey you could jazz it up (just realised how much I hate that expression sorry) with bright blouse or top. They have loads. All colours.
