What can I wear to a surprise birthday party? My husband is surprising me for my 40th birthday with a bunch of people….not sure what day or where. It’s been rainy and a bit cool here in Chicago. I am petite. I weigh about 102 lbs. I love fashion and would like to look my best.

A surprise birthday party sounds great! Try to find out what time of day and where the surprise birthday party will be held.

If the place he is taking you to is a more casual venue you will have to dress in something casual, separates.

Cover up with a trench coat.
