Help me dress for a mentoring event tomorrow

I have two options for what to wear to a mentoring event tomorrow evening (unrelated bonus--there will be wine there!).

Option 1:
Grey jersey skirt with short sleeve silk blouse, short sleeve grey jacket with black piping, black tights and black flats.  More casual than a full suit--kind of dressy separates.

Option 1 variation:
Same as option 1 with over-calf black boots instead of black flats

 Option 2:
Dark brown pants with a pink button down shirt, and a brown/cream tweed jacket.

Option 2 is probably a little more "formal" for what that's worth.  The weather is really throwing me off.  It's supposed to be mid-70s tomorrow and I worry that option 2 will look overly warm for the day.

  • I would go with #2.  Even though it may look too warm, it's still October, so twead is appropriate.  And I would probably just carry the jacket until it's time for your meeting so that you don't actually get too warm.

    The pink shirt swayed you, didn't it? :P

    Seriously, though, thanks for weighing in. I'm excited and a bit nervous--this is my first real interaction with real-live attorneys and I'm really hoping that it's valuable.

    Thanks for the laughs. They really need a ROFL face.
