Your hair is important too. Often we keep the same style for years, unwilling or seemingly unable to do anything different. If you’re hairstyle consists of pulling your mane back into a ponytail and calling it a day, it’s time for a change. It’s a common misconception that “doing” one’s hair takes hours. With the right cut and products, maintaining a stylish cut shouldn’t take any longer than picking out the right outfit.
Below you can read some suggestions what to wear for a first date. These tips were provided by eHarmony experts and I decided to republish some of them here.
What to dress for romantic dinner
Go Classic: A black cocktail dress should be a staple item in your closet. A classic cut can be your go-to piece for years. One dress can be "worn" in so many ways, projecting a different attitude each time by simply changing your hair, shoes, jewelry, or handbag. Just think of the black dress as your groundwork. Make it your own with the items you choose to accessorize with.
Add a cropped jacket to change the tone—jacket on can be shy and mysterious and jacket off can be revealing and sensual. If you’d prefer pants, try a pair of black satiny trousers paired with a Victorian-styled ruffled blouse.
Quick Tip: In addition to adding a layer of depth to your outfit, a coverup can also act as a shield against a cool summer night or an over-air-conditioned restaurant.
Where this works: What to dress for date in a city
Often you don't have a time to go home and prepare for a date. And you force to dress for work & first date at the same time.
Go Classic: The key to winning this look is to accessorize and layer. Each piece accommodates the other in creating the perfect packaged deal.
The concept is clean and tailored—layer a white tie blazer over a camisole and match with a pair of trousers or a pencil skirt.
The blazer is universally functional in that it works to complement any outfit—it’s corporate enough for the workday and sassy enough for a rendezvous in town.
Instead of a camisole, try a fitted button-down with puffed sleeves or a patterned silk blouse with a delicate tie-neck.
Count on the pair of pants or the skirt that flatters your body type the best. It’s more important to fit your body than it is to fit the trend. Knowing your best features are accentuated can make you feel both confident and attractive.
Quick Tip: Go bolder on the shoes when trying to spice up a conservative outfit. Experiment with red or a zebra print.
Where This Works: - Happy hour
- Casual dinner
- Casual party
- A night out in town
