Looking for advice on what one would wear to a tech conference. I think the industry people dress in casual but I am not sure how I should present myself. There are a handful of other lawyers including partners from another office of my firm attending but i am not familiar with them to ask. Any suggestions are helpful!

My rule of thumb is to wear jeans, a blouse and a blazer, or slacks, a blouse and a sweater. Nice flats for shoes

Nice jeans , nice t shirt, blazer. Or jeans, nice blouse. Nice looking shoes but ones you can feel comfortable in. If you are doing a dress/skirt, do so in a way that seems professional, but a bit less formal than a law firm meeting.

I would wear a business formal dress with flats or professional heals and then you can bring a blazer with you or ditch the blazer if other lawyers are dressed more casually. It never hurts to be in a nice pencil dress, though.

I can’t figure out the current jean trends, so my go-to are trousers, belt, and a casual button up. IMO, it’s stylish and professional without being overdressed.

I keep being told what I have to do, but no one will show me how to do it. Be very careful how you word IEP’s without being given. The wording. I have been here 2 years as an intern. Now, with 3 weeks to go, I find out the name of the support person? I was never given training and my intern support person never met with me. Not even once! I’m not being hired back because I don’t know how to do what I was never trained on.
