I Studied Cool Work Outfits to Figure Out What to Wear to a Conference

@leiasfezContrary to popular belief a black suit is anything but boring. Don't underestimate the power of suiting. When you walk into the room, people will just assume you're important. Every time you wear it, try pairing it with different accessories, and you'll never get bored.
The promotion you'll get while wearing these pants will mean that they paid for themselves.

@aida.bdjiIntroducing the new prep. Fashion people are all over the idea of taking classic preppy items and styling them in an elevated way. This is an easy way to instantly look polished and play with layers on your work trip.

@josefinehjWhen it comes to workwear, rotating cotton poplin button-down shirts is always the move, but if you occasionally get bored of them, you need to try this. Vertical stripes are low-key so flattering. Try a striped shirt for fresh look.
I just found my new favorite pair of work pants.

@emmanuellek_Let your inner Elle Woods out while introducing yourself to people at your work conference. A dash of pink will easily make your business-casual wardrobe feel like a lot more fun. Plus, a pink skirt is something you can wear to everything on the calendar.

@erinoffdutyOuterwear will be key when planning your work trip because you're most likely just packing a carry-on (meaning there's only room for one good coat). Nothing says "nice to meet you" better than a statement faux-fur number.
When you're bored of wearing trousers on your work trip, just switch to leather pants.

@tylynnnguyenYou'll instantly strike a pose in an outfit like this. This is the kind of work-conference outfit that will make everyone want to introduce themselves to you. Hello, new friends!

@iliridakrasniqiIf you're lucky enough to get away with wearing jeans at the conference, I encourage you to take the opportunity in full force. Whenever you want your denim to look more elevated, go for a dark wash.
My favorite pair of jeans for multiple years in a row.

@endlesslyloveclubWith the return of skinny pants nearing, I'm planning to ease into them. A skinny flare is a great way to do that. Pairing it with an oversize blazer creates interesting proportions.

@fakerstromMy inner prep-school child is all about this look. A blazer, classic skirt, and loafers will be the kind of work-conference outfit that you'll want to wear on the weekends too.

@anoukyveRelease your inner Chanel and Celine girl with a French-inspired tweed jacket. Nothing says "I mean business" better than a bit of tweed.
Who knew you could find a jacket like this for under $100?
