The best advice I have ever received was to dress nice enough so that if
the CIO walked in, he wouldn't question why he payed you so much money.
In some hi tech companies, this can mean wearing sneakers instead of
flip flops. In some law firms, this may mean a suit. It also varies by
coast. I find that even within my own company, that the west coast tends
to have much more leeway regarding style of dress then the east coast.
I personally vary my dress. I normally have slacks and a button down
shirt, and might wear a sport jacket in the winter. When I do interviews
i wear just that, my normal work clothes.
