From presenting your own ideas to new clients to exchanging ideas with your colleagues, dressing the part in the right business meeting outfits up your sleeve is key success within the office.  

So, what makes for an appropriate business meeting ensemble? We asked Lauren McGoodwin, founder and CEO of Career Contessa, for her best office-friendly fashion advice. “I recommend a great power suit or blazer. Of course, a great blowout never hurts, either,” she tells us.

With that in mind, we’ve rounded up our favorite street style looks for you to take to the office. From an updated look on the classic power suit to stylish blazers that are anything but boring, these looks will show off your professionalism and your personality. Check them out below.

A floral skirt with a structured blazer will keep you looking professional without feeling too uptight. Add on cool accessories to give your ensemble more color.

We love a good checked blazer more than anyone. Play into the colors of it and wear a vibrant blue skirt with it.

While beige blazers might be less common than your standard black version, this will be a refreshing option for the summer. Wear it with neutrals for an unexpected office look.

There's nothing like a good black power suit to do the trick in the conference room. Opt for a pair of kick flare pants to give it a stylish update.

Why not play with different types of plaid? To keep this look from getting too busy, keep the color palette to a minimum.

If you work in a more creative environment, a printed blazer will be an unique option that's bound to make you stand out.

A cool pussy bow blouse will always look good in the office We love it paired with high-waisted trousers and a cool blazer.

Want to give your blazer look an update? Try wearing one that'll cinch at the waist to change the silhouette. Then, pair it with a flowy skirt to give your ensemble some movement.

An updated power suit will command the room the moment you walk in. Wear a patterned or checked suit to give your look an unexpected twist.

Now, go on and ace that meeting. Everyone will know you mean business.
