You have a lunch meeting with clients at an upscale restaurant or a casual cafe. If you already work in a corporate environment, what to wear is often as simple as what you’ve worn to the office that day. Where wardrobe can get complicated is when you work from home or in a more casual office environment, or when you want to transition your corporate look to something more artistic, edgy, or approachable.
What to wear to a business lunch suddenly becomes complicated! Instead of worrying, don’t overthink it. Stick with basic, timeless pieces and add visual interest in the details. Start with a simple combination:
Astrophel + Stella Jennifer Dress - click to purchase
Astrophel + Stella’s Jennifer dress is the perfect base for a business lunch outfit. The chic design and sleek, flattering silhouette make a perfect statement that maintains corporate, professional style without settling for stuffy, run-of-the-mill business wear. The flattering basic black dress stays professionally neutral without depending on the classic business suit, and the dress makes the perfect canvas for displaying statement jewelry that takes your look to the next level. Add an unexpectedly playful element to your look by trading in your classic corporate heels for Dav’s stylish and comfortable black ballet flats.
When choosing your accessories, aim for a long necklace to compliment the neckline of the dress. Since your basic outfit is a neutral palette, any color can amp up your style. The LilyP Silk Kalypso Necklace can be a fantastic compliment, with contrasting tones and a splash of color. For something bolder and brighter that brings an artistic flair to the look, choose Sobral’s Kandinsky Gabriele Necklace:
