small lunch bags for women image
TLW
One woman is doing the planning, one found a place to have it, and one is making a cake. I'd like them all to know how much I appreciate them.
Answer
You could put together some small gift bags with thank you cards. The gift bags can contain some of the person's favorite things, such as candy, scents, small gift card to their favorite restaurant, etc. You might go out to lunch with all of them and then give them their gift bags and cards, and tell them all how much you appreciate them. :)

What should I wear to this PhD open day and interview?
M M
It's an open day involving some introductory talks, an "informal" lunch with current students and staff, a tour of the labs and then a "formal interview".
The range of different things going on is giving me difficulties in choosing what to wear...
It's in the genetics section of a hospital.
Answer
Depending on your gender, of course....but I'd say regardless - formal wear.
You can be 'mildly informal' and wear plain black trousers and a blouse/shirt/sweater, rather than wearing a two-piece suit. Don't wear a tie if you feel that this is too formal, but make sure the shirt or blouse looks neat. If you do want to wear a tie, you should go with solid colours rather than an elaborate design. Have either a blouse or a well-pressed shirt, and if you want, a blazer or suit jacket. If it's cold, wear a neutral-coloured sweater. White shirts look clean, but may make you look like a waiter! Try a pinstripe or coloured shirt instead. Black is also flattering, but beware if you have animals, as you'll be picking off light coloured hairs forever.
Polished shoes or boots are okay - but make them plain. No trainers. Black socks, preferably long ones, are useful if you have a tendency to cross your legs when seated.
The overall idea is that you're presenting a neat and tidy packaged personality, so avoid carrying excess bags (handbags, etc) - use one case or messenger bag for the day. If you have to carry a purse, make it a small and unobtrusive one.
Take a coat if needed for over your blazer or jacket, but not something that's 'high fashion'. If you choose to wear earrings, go for the 'less is more' approach. If you have piercings, you may opt to take them out or replace larger pieces for less obtrusive studs. Large necklaces might also be difficult in lab situations, so avoid anything too dangly. Hair is also a strong point - for lab work you'll need to tie up or tie back long hair, so make sure that if this is the case you can carry some spare hair bobbles or clips with you on the day.
Try not to use strong perfumes or deodorants - it's something I've found people forget about and then tend to overdo because they worry they'll sweat. The result is one very over-perfumed student! In a lab or close environment this isn't quite as pleasant. Use a neutral antiperspirant and mild deodorant if you feel this might affect you.
For women -
Makeup is also a concern, sometimes - if you want to use the basics, it will be better to go for a 'neutral' look, but don't undermine your self-confidence by making yourself feel plain.
For men -
Designer stubble is not really preferable, so either shave clean or maintain your facial hair as you need to.
