Even though I am married now, I can remember the first dates I used to have before meeting my husband and I cringe at what I put myself through trying to find a great outfit. In fact I remember one time going to the mall two hours before the date because I could not find anything to wear in my closet.
If you are having trouble finding a great outfit for your upcoming first date, fret no more, because I am here to help.
Here are some great tips to keep in mind when choosing what to wear on your first date so not only do you impress your date but you feel confident and beautiful as well.
Take Into Consideration Where and When the Date Is Before Choosing an Outfit
Before you even start looking at your clothes be sure to take into the consideration of where your first date is taking place. If it is at a restaurant, is the restaurant fancy dress or more of a casual spot? If it at a coffee shop you definitely will want something a little more on the casual side.
You don't want to be dressed in your best little black dress for a date at your local café or sports bar. You also don't want to be wearing leggings and a tunic for a date at a 5 star restaurant.
Not only should you consider where the date is, but when it is. For example a Wednesday night date at a small local café is not going to warrant the same type of outfit as a Friday night 7 p.m. dinner at the best restaurant in town.
Also, if your date is outside plan according to the weather and make sure you bring extra clothes just in case as well.
Play Up Your Accents As Best As Possible
Most women have at least one area of their body that they really like. Some women love their chest while others like their butt or legs.
When choosing an outfit for your date, play up your best accents. If you love the way your legs look, then slip on a pair of high heels and a short dress to show them off.
Leave Something to the Imagination
It can be tempting to want to dress sexy and proactive for your date, but you want to leave something to the imagination. As I mentioned, play up your favorite part of your body but that may mean cover up the rest of it.
If you are wearing a short dress with some high heels, then opt for a dress that has a higher neckline or wear a blazer or cardigan over your dress to cover up on top.
You don't want to come across as too slutty and let him see everything on the first date. Instead give him a hint of what he can expect if he impresses you.
Examples of First Date Outfits
Dress with a Blazer or Jacket
If you are comfortable wearing dresses, then by all means wear a cute dress on your first date. You can choose a cute little short dress or even opt for a longer maxi dress.
Pair your dress with a blazer or a jacket for a complete look that not only looks hot but looks very put together.
Jeans and a Blouse
If you want to go a little bit more casual but still have a dressier feel to your outfit, wear a pair of your best jeans with a cute feminine blouse.
You can add a pair of high heels or a pair of wedges to complete the outfit. This is probably the best first date option because it is comfortable but still sexy and hot enough to really impress your date.
When choosing your outfit for your first date just remember that he is most likely as nervous as you are about your date and you have the advantage because you are the beautiful woman. Dress your body to accent your strengths but still be completely appropriate for the date and you will find that you will knock his socks off.
