I'm SO excited, I got out of the shower to find a message on my phone saying I have gotten THE job that I've been trying to hard to get! What can I wear to meet with my employer for the first time?!

A little background:
The job is at a funeral home, so outfits must be modest, fairly formal, and nothing too loud. I want to look unique NO SLACKS AND A BLAZER OUTFITS PLEASE, something more creative but toned down please =)
I'm great at putting together outfits, but they're all quite "out there" and I need some of you ladies to help me and tell me how to tone it down. I'm just so excited that I can't even think straight, so I need help from you ladies on what to wear to make a lasting, but appropriate first impression =)

Thanks Ladies!

I think a black skinny jeans with a white or cream kind of loose and light shirt :) Maybe with a great necklace or scarf (depending on the weather) :)
And congratulations on the job!! Yay!!

Thank you Sabrina! I think I may have the perfect white top too. I bought it for a funeral directing conference where the students had to dress professionally, then it just collected dust afterwards. Its a pretty white top, but I just completely forgot about it!
And I definitely have a pretty necklace with some purple stones in it, I may go with that =)

thanks my dear!

I like the shirt but for a funeral home I feel like jeans are to casual maybe some slacks

Maybe cigarette trousers? They're cut similarly to skinny jeans but a trouser material over denim would make it more work-appropriate :)
