Help dress me for work event at a partner’s home

I don't mind the beige sweater with the beige satin skirt.

I think some dressy ankle booties in caramel suede with a medium heel could dress it up and might work. A heavier gold necklace on top could break up the off white.

Wear the beige outfit, no combat boots. I live in San Francisco and even here that would be too casual!

She is always amazing. I would look just massive in this. Turtlenecks are v bad for the busty and I think this is too much white. Idk now I am torn asunder! You all have made this impossible for me! Ha

To clarify, I intended to wear booties with the beige outfit of a suitably fancy type.
The combat boots were with the long dress and sweater, much as it is styled in pictures.

Use it as a guide. You can change the colors, swap the turtleneck for a silky blouse. Just think polished while still being comfortable. Tailored pants with some flow to the legs are a great starting point.

I am Team Satin Skirt, but the Gwyneth outfit is also good!

I have many silky blouses and trousers etc etc as I’ve been a partner for a long time, but I specifically wanted some kind of more casual but still appropriate look for this dinner. I’ve been swayed by all those images of sweaters and sequin skirts.

DP, but combat boots with anything to a firm dinner is a really bad idea.

I love the Gwyneth look, but definitely agree you need loose top with more fitted bottom. Though not sexy fitted.

That is fine - you may join us for dinner in that case.

Are you OP? Or a PP? I thought OP said she was going to a partner's dinner for her spouse.

Oh please no sequins. Go with a satiny fabric if you want shine.

Thank you so much for your wisdom. I have been chastised forever.

I am OP and I am a partner at a different firm.
