Ladies, if you are single then this serves you. If you're in a relationship this will also serve you - albeit as some light entertainment.
Introducing first date fashion - a snapshot.
- Wear something that shows skin - but not too much skin. The subtle art of 'leaving things to the imagination' has never been more poignant. So yes, get those legs out. Or yes, get your decollatage out. But for heavens sake, don't do both.
- Wear what makes you feel as awesome as you look. We've all been there - wearing an amazing dress that looks good on the outside, but is too tight/itchy/short etc. Let's face it, if the nerves on a first date are enough, the least you can do is wear something comfortable.
- Show your personality. I'm a strong believer that the clothes you wear say something about who you are. So choose something that fits with 'you' and don't try to be any different.
- Plan in advance. Okay, I'm not saying you need to go over-board, but having a few options in mind earlier on will ease of the pressure of getting ready later. It's either that or ending up in a mad rush, doing your make-up in the cab, Bridget Jones style.
DON'T:
- Be afraid of colour. Yes, I hear you. Black is the most flattering colour and often what makes us feel most 'safe'. But a pop of colour will create an impression - be it a coloured clutch or a bright skirt.
- Wear super high heels. There are two reasons for this - which is more important I'll leave that to you. a) the pain they will cause b) the fact that, if you're a tall girl like me, you risk towering over your date. #neveragain
- Ignore the weather forecast. As the temperature drops, what's worse than forgetting to wrap up properly? Unless, of course, your plan is for him to give you his jacket...
So there we go. First date fashion in a nutshell.
Happy Dating! x
