If this is a "formal" event like business meeting a cute dress in a more casual fabric is good. (I call this country club casual). A clutch purse as opposed to a satchel is better. You can also wear nice (wool) slacks and a fancy sweater in some places, but in general a dress is preferable.

I would love to go shopping with you.
