Let’s face it, first dates can be nerve-racking. Although you can’t pre-plan conversation, you can pre-plan the perfect date night outfit! With the right outfit you’ll be sure to exude confidence the second you walk out the door. The trick to the perfect date night outfit is simple; choose your favorite part of your body and emphasize it!
Let’s start with those of you who have long legs meant to hit the runway. The best way to emphasize your legs is to opt for a shorter hemline and a nude shoe. A nude shoe, especially with a pointed toe, will elongate your leg and draw the eye up. This is also a great way to
create the illusion of longer legs if you’re on the shorter side like me. The perfect outfit to show off your legs would be a mini dress with a pair of pointed nude heels.
Now I’m sure some of you are thinking, “It’s post holidays, I don’t have a favorite part of my body!” If you fall into this category try to pick a top that shows off your back or clavicle. Off the shoulder tops and open back tops paired with dark jeans and heels is an easy way to conquer a sexy, yet casual outfit. This is also a great outfit if you’re unsure about the ambience of where you and your date are headed.
Lastly, we can’t forget about showing off your arms. If you fall into this category opt for a sleeveless maxi or midi dress with a slit. The slit will allow the dress’ material to move with your body, instead of clinging to your hips. Add a fun heeled sandal, and just like that you’re ready to go! This is a great outfit for a casual day date.
When planning out your first date outfit, the only way to go wrong is to not feel confident in what you’re wearing. When you choose to emphasize a part of your body that makes you insecure, you’ll be distracted from your date. Prepare for what you can control and make sure you feel beautiful from head to toe!
