Set up my own company a while ago and been invited to first 'Ladies Business Lunch' in a couple of weeks. Do I go for power dressing or just drop dead gorgeous? Opinions please.

Has to be power dressed. You need to look like you're in charge.

Though if the others are more "Casual", you'll probably get the bill!

Go for the smart but provocative look, gives an aura of i mean business, but also sends out the signal that you can negotiate if required.
A hard business woman with a soft edge if you see what i mean.

Good luck

Do you know nothing about the sisterhood of women? Whatever you wear, they'll tell you look fantastic to your face and will bh about you and sl4g you off behind your back.

Lose lose.

Do smart jeans and tailored blouse. Show them that you are smart and sassy without the need to conform.
