What to wear on a first date

Dating can be a duanting experience and finding that perfect outfit a complete disaster. Ladies we're back to first impressions and being cool with yourself first and formost.

One thing to remember is the first date really isn't the first because you've already had some type of interaction with the person you'll go out with even if its just on the phone. With this in mine you should wear something as comfortable as that other person has already made you feel. If you feel the need to overdue the outfit that is a sure sign that you both have only shown the "presenting self" to each other and therefore feel a need to do a little something extra to impress. In short...you're not as comfortable as you would like to be. If I'm in your shoes, I would have that first date in a neutral place where what you have on is no big deal.

Now if your lucky the impression may be lasting and great, but imagine having to come up with that image every time you see him!

This article isn't really about what to wear on a date, but how you feel when you're out on the date with someone you hope will be a special part of your life. It is about you being open to a new experience and embracing the possibilities. It is about good conversation and getting to know another person and feeling good when the night is over. What its really about is being true to yourself and all the good vibes coming back to you, no matter what you're wearing. If your lucky and that date becomes your last first date, I doubt that either of you will remember what you were wearing!

Yes. A Dress that make you feel comfortable is the Best One.

Guidebaba,

Absolutely...when I feel good then everything else falls into place. Never will I dress to impress someone that doesn't know my heart.

Very important to 'be yourself' because nobody can keep up an act.

2patricias, absolutely, being who you really are is most important. That's what I tell my 22 year old daughter who complains there are no good guys in the world. Thanks for reading.

Awesome article, CheryleJ! I think it's really important to feel comfortable on a first date, no need to over-do it, keep that in the closet for when you're with someone who takes you someplace really special!
