Any suggestions for business/business casual attire for young women (~age 25)?

Hey Ladies (and Fellas passing by)!

I'm transitioning from a work-from-home assignment to a 9-month stint of weekly business travel. I have a very limited business/business casual wardrobe that's okay for once a week meetings in a biz casual office, but now I have to look sharp 4 days a week in front of the client.

Does anyone have advice on how I can build out my wardrobe with pieces that are both work-appropriate and fitting for a young professional? I want to look experienced and sleek while maintaining a bit of a youthful look. BUT, I don't want to look like I'm 25 (I've already been called a "baby" by someone in my company who calculated my age from my college graduation date.)

FWIW - I'm a management consultant, so I'd like to command a powerful presence in the office. Most of my colleagues are men and women 40-50 years old.

Thanks!
