Question about Suits and Overcoats?

R
REM

Being from the South (yes, I capitalized the 'S' in South on purpose), I rarely see cold weather unless I am on vacation.  Also, the fact that I am a computer nerd by trade, means that I rarely have to wear much more then pants and a short sleeve shirt (and no, I dont work for the Geek Squad). 


That being said, I have an interview tomorrow in Manhattan.  I own a black suit and can borrow a khaki overcoat from my father-in-law.  Does my suit and my overcoat need to match?  Would I be better just not taking the overcoat since it is a different color then my suit?


Thanks for any input!  You guys are the best!

Your overcoat and suit do not need to match,according to GQ.com.Bring your overcoat,the person doing the interview probably isn't going to see it anyway.Good luck and don't eat hotdogs from those carts.:)
