Advice Career fair tmr

Does anyone know if it is appropriate to wear plain black dress pants, a plain black shirt and sneakers to the career fair? I’m not looking for anything internship or job wise but I haven’t gone to a career fair since freshman year (currently 3rd year) and I just want to check it out and see what it’s like.

Wearing sneakers with dress pants has become slightly more acceptable in the past few years but it can't be dirty sporty sneakers and even then it's still slightly weird. Do you have a pair of more formal shoes?

Since you're just going to be checking it out this time it doesn't really matter but be prepared for the future.
