I work with people who wear socks with sandals in a business environment (insert crying and rocking smiley). I don't think socks should be worn with Chacos, Birkenstocks, Tevas, Danskos, in any environment except when trying them on in a shoe store. pacific Northwest, where socks with sandals, a utilikilt, and a polo/shirt with either Microsoft or Amazon on it is business casual.
OP/katiecouture19 those pants might be okay, depends on the fabric, but those shoes are never business appropriate due to the platform and open toe. Well, maybe business appropriate if work is working it and making it rain $1, but you're going to sorority rush and you have to also walk in those shoes. I don't consider your top choice a blazer, but like my squirrelly sis suggested, a cardigan with a cute top is a good choice. it also may just be my body type and shoes, but a cuffed dress pant can look real nice.
Advice to all ladies, fabric choice can make or break an outfit. Anything that is shiny or pills, or is the wrong type of fabric for the cut/design can work against you. No one should be buying business casual or suit pieces in odd number sizes. Move on to the misses department or petites if you are still growing in your late teens. I grew two inches in college and crossing department lines is not a scary thing if it makes you look good.
