What to Wear: Tech Conference

Bay Area tech conferences can be challenging to dress for. You want to be comfortable, stylish and not too casual or too formal. Basically, the female equivalent of the jeans + dress shirt + fancy shoes combination (sometimes with a blazer, never with a tie) that most Silicon Valley guys wear to these things. Pockets are a must for business cards.  I like heels to feel a bit taller in a crowd. A bit of color so that you’re not blending in with everyone else.

For an event this week, I paired a blue BCBG wrap dress (similar to this dress) with a gray Club Monaco blazer and a pair of vintage leather boots. Happy with the way this outfit came out. Now, I just need to put together another one for day two of the event tomorrow – shoot!
