[quote=Anonymous]I would not try to hard with your clothes or stray far from what you already wear-- too many potential pitfalls.

Are you staying with his family? And what will you be doing? Get info about restaurants or any outings before you go so you have something appropriate. End of September is honestly easy-- for most things a good pair of straight leg jeans and a sweater will be fine. Bring a dress or two for dinner or drinks at night.

The concessions is make to the fact that his mom and sisters are NYC wealthy: do not wear cheap shoes or carry a cheap bag. This does NOT mean to buy some designer items you think they'd approve of. It just means being real leather shoes and a purse in good condition -- it's totally fine if it's Madewell or Coach outlet or something, they won't care about that. And similar with jewelry-- quirky jewelry is fine if that's your usual look but avoid CHEAP jewelry just for it's own sake. Wear the best quality stuff you have or skip it altogether.

Otherwise just be yourself and try not to think about how you look. There's actually a broad range of approaches to fashion and beauty from families who attend this schools-- could be designer everything, trendy, or super understated and even casual. They will know quality in sight but no way to know if they'll judge you for how you dress or not. That's not really important though. Your personality is the biggest factor and if their son/brother likes you well enough to take you to meet them, that's probably already going to be fine. Remind yourself that if they hate you upon meeting you, that's more a reflection of their own issues than anything you did wrong.[/quote]
