I need your help pleeeease!!!

Having dressed up in anything more than nice leggings for 2 years, I am now facing the ultimate outfit challenge. Work lunch out at posh place!! Confused

I'm 2 months into a new job at an ad agency. The lunch is at a fancy Italian in London. There'll be 5 of us - three male, two female.

What to wear to project professional yet still sightly on-trend? And high heels or flats? And please talk to me about jackets?

Currently flipping between this:

and this:

www.freepeople.com/uk/shop/pretty-dayz-set/?category=maxi-dresses&color=018&type=REGULAR&quantity=1&size=XS&fbclid=IwAR0nc6MLGoBRGdVwD06codtR6mquUFseP97egQ457OdUTNkaUqY-lRZca8U

Probably with heels (I'm petite, need them for confidence) and little leather jacket...

Any/all advice appreciated. I've been self-employed since 2008, so this is unfamiliar territory!!

Thank you!!!

Sorry but the co-ord is much better than that blue leopard monstrosity

I really like the blue dress- have a good lunch!

Brilliant. If you can swap the belt it will probably look better - I find belts that come with can be a bit hit and miss!

It’s a great dress and looks like an £80 dress. Great find!
