Dress to Impress: First Date Outfits for Guaranteed Success

Dress Romantic
  • Head-to-toe ruffles aren't necessary but a hint of femininity is. Pair soft tops with structured pants or a long, flowing skirt with a simple top. Go pink - works wonders!
Skip the Sleaze
  • Dressing like early sleazy may get his attention but not his affection. Try peekaboo styles that leave something to the imagination. Make crochet or sheer tops and slit skirts your weapons of choice.
Be Comfortable
  • No need to hold your breath in skinny jeans. Opt for stretch styles that hug the figure and let you breathe too. And stilettos are sexy but not feasible. Be comfy.
Reveal the Real You
  • Be it your charm bracelet or a groovy pin, let your accessories talk about the real you.
  • Wear your favorite color.
  • Don a sentimental piece of jewellery like granny's necklace or a friendship band - anything that can be a conversation starter.
  • Dress in a familiar style. If downtown diva is your thing, don't change yourself.
Pass on Status Pieces
  • Chances are, he's not going to know one designer from the next, so save your impressive designer labels for a girls' night out. Remember that if you show up looking like too much of a fashion plate, he may be intimidated by your shopping prowess. And also start slotting you as a high-maintenance woman - too much to handle!
