Date Night


Ah, Spring. Rebirth, renewal….romance! This time of year, many of us find ourselves immersed in the dating scene, whether it be with new loves, or old flames. It’s fun and exciting right? But we have one question: what is the perfect date outfit?

For some of us, it’s a jeans and a t-shirt, for some lucky few it’s a ball gown. But for those of us who feel unsure, there are a few easy rules to follow:

1. Don’t wear something you have never worn before. It’s a good rule to wear something you feel comfortable in, has proven it’s reliable, and you know looks good.

2. Be yourself. Let your outfit be a refection of your personal style. if you put on an outfit that feels like a costume, it will be difficult to take your mind off of your appearance and focus on your date.

3. Show off your best feature. Great legs? Show ‘em off. Sexy cleavage? A lower neckline will surely impress. Got both? Luck you!...but only pick one asset to flaunt, too much flesh is certainly overkill.

4. Layers. Spring weather can still be a little hard to predict. Be sure to bring a quick and easy cover-up to throw over yourself if the temperature dips (see the trench post below for inspiration). A blazer is a sexy alternative with casual jeans, or try it over a dress with a funky belt.

5. Have fun with it! Walk out the door feeling sexy and confident. If your outfit requires a lot of maintenance (i.e.: fidgeting, hiking up, adjusting.. )ditch it and try an alternative. The goal after all is to look good, have fun, and show off your killer style!

Now go out there and get lucky! ….Because you’re worth it
