COCKTAIL CASUAL
You love to balance business and pleasure and you’re good at it. You are excited to return to in-person events so you can be the social butterfly that you are - creating both professional and personal connections. For your first live meeting back, try a business casual dress mixed with bold accessories and funky shoes.

ATHLEISURE CHIC
Who says you can’t be cute and comfortable? You are so happy to be living in the time of designer sneakers and matching sets and you are taking advantage of it. For your first post-pandemic event, sport a cute dress and a blazer (stretchy material of course) paired with hip sneakers.

TOTAL GLAM
The world isn’t ready for your fashion return. You have been cooped up for over a year and therefore have missed out on the opportunity to show off your amazing looks. For your return to live events and meetings, go all out. Wear a statement piece (fancy kimono, faux fur coat, anything with feathers) and pair it with full hair and makeup (we’re talking a bold lip and a blowout) and lots of accessories - the more sparkle the better.

COMFORT IS KEY
Of course the pandemic had its downsides, but the wardrobe requirements weren’t one of them. You are most comfortable in sweats or pajamas on your couch and there is nothing wrong with that. However, that getup isn’t necessarily acceptable for live events. For your first in-person event, cover a pair of comfy leggings with a long tunic and pair it with cute and comfortable flats.
