Before a big date, do you find yourself scrambling at the last minute to put together the perfect outfit? Do you come home to a giant mound of wadded up clothes and shoes on your bedroom floor after the date? I have good news for you ladies: You aren’t alone! Meeting someone for the first time can be stressful. Of course you want to make the perfect first impression on your date, starting with your outfit.
First, look up the restaurant you are going to have dinner at on your date. The website, menu and pictures should all give you a great idea of how casual or dressy that particular restaurant is. As far as casual places go, remember it is always better to be over dressed than under dressed! Dressing appropriate for the atmosphere is key.
Next, you want your outfit to be memorable, but not for the wrong reasons! You don’t want your skirt to be too tight, your dress to be too short, or your top to be so low cut that your date can’t focus on what’s most important -- YOU! Remember the high-low rule: if you are wearing a short skirt or dress, the neckline should not be too revealing. If you are wearing a lower cut top, your choice for bottoms should not show too much leg. It’s simple!
Finally, don’t be afraid of color! So many women play it safe and wear black. Now don’t get me wrong, black is a fabulous color and can be very flattering. But if you do decide to wear black, spice it up with some fun, colorful statement jewelry!
Most importantly, you need to feel good in what you wear. When you feel good, you look your best and your confidence will radiate! Knock ‘em dead!
