Got a work conference this month. Around 70 people attending. Including CEO, manager and the 20 people I manage. First time I’ll meet them.

The weather shows it will be 20 degrees with possible rain. The event will be held at a building with smart-casual dress code.

Not sure what to wear. I’m 27, very short and slim. Have a bit of imposter syndrome so feel like I need to dress to impress but not sure where to start! I think more towards the smart side.

Fitted pencil trousers and a nice button down blouse?

Trousers are a pain because I’m around 5ft, can rarely find the right length

Places like Next offer shorter sizes, and many of the brands they stock do too.

Lucky you, meeting everyone for the first time! For a smart casuual dress code, I'd go with tailored trousers and a nice blouse, or maybe a chic dress with a blazer. Since its going to be 20 degrees with possible rain a lightweight trenche coat might be a good idea too. I'm also quite short and slim, so i find heels or smark ankle boots give me a bit of extra confidence. If you're still unsure ensure your details into outfithuntr.com and it will suggest personalised outfit ideas for most occasions.

Hopefully the OP already found something given that her original post was nearly a year ago
