Apologies for being a forum hog. I need to pack pretty soon, and still feel a bit concerned that I haven't really nailed outfits for my presentation and more casual evening.
Constraints: Weather is going to be cool and cloudy, possibly rainy.
Situation: casual, with most people probably wearing gear or denim, especially in the daytime. I will be part of a panel.
On Saturday, I can't go back to change so have to bring a "quick change" option with me and tote it around and then go out for a relatively casual supper.
Here are a few possibilities, none of which I am feeling wonderful about.
#1: possible for presentation day -- jeans could be switched out for VC skirt for evening supper. But I fear the jacket reads too feminine.
2/3/4/5 possibles for presentation day
all of which easily transition into: #6/#7 for nighttime relatively casual dinner.
#8-10 possibles for second day when it may be sunny, I am not presenting, but I will be interviewing clients. My goal is to seem approachable and reassuring that day. If the weather's fine we may go outdoors for these interviews.
Would love your thoughts.
In general, I think for Saturday daytime (presentation) I want something relatively casual but with a structured element (sleeves, a jacket, something tailored, I guess -- for when I am sitting at the table on a podium). I also need to be able to change reasonably easily into something that will work for night.
