Dressing for a first date

Dressing for a first date

Preparing for a first date can be very stressful, especially when trying to find the right outfit. When putting your outfit together for your date remember these three helpful tips:

1. It’s better to be overdressed than underdressed.

Of course you shouldn’t wear a ball gown, but dressing up more than normal shows that you put effort and thought into your outfit. Wearing a nice top with a skirt, a pretty dress or a nice pair of pants and a shirt (depending on what makes you feel most comfortable) will make you look dressed up but not overly dressed. If your date dresses up, you’ll look great, and if your date doesn’t…well, you’ll still look great.

2. Modesty is the best policy.

On a first date you do not want to send the wrong message to your date by wearing overly tight or low cut clothing. You’ll feel more comfortable and draw attention to other more important things if you dress modestly.

3. You’re never fully dressed without a smile.

A smile and confidence is the best thing you can wear on a first date. When the butterflies and nerves have you second-guessing your hair and outfit, take a breath, relax and put a smile on your face. If you feel beautiful, you’ll look beautiful.
