Hapless ladygoon here: I have my first job interview since high school, and I'm not sure what's appropriate to wear (in college, formal clothes have not been a necessity). According to the weather report, it's going to be about 90F that day, so would a sleeveless and/or light top be OK, or is a jacket to go with my skirt required? Also, are flats instead of heels OK?

What kind of job are you applying for? If it's a professional one, I would go for the skirt/jacket combo with a longer sleeved blouse underneath (despite the weather). If it's like most other jobs, the light/short-sleeved top is fine. Go for a longer sleeved top if you have tattoos on your arms. Also, wearing slacks is perfectly acceptable too if you would prefer to go in them instead of a skirt. You can get slacks for pretty cheap that look great.

I can't wear heels, so I've worn flats to every single interview I've ever done. I haven't had any problems with them, even with the fancier jobs I've tried interviewing for. I don't think heels vs. flats really matters for most job interviews anyway. I would say that bit is really up to you unless, again, you're interviewing for a professional position - then I would choose heels.
