First Date Outfit Ideas That Guys Love

Here are some great guy-approved outfit ideas that will save you from all that hassle, of going through your closet, in attempt to find an outfit which will send “the right message.”

You’ve probably read a countless number of articles giving you tips on what to wear on the first date. Bearing that in mind we tried to do something a little bit different this time.

As we all know, when choosing date outfits our intentions are to make a good impression. Therefore, we asked guys, about what their ideas for a perfect first date outfit, are. Here’s what they said:

1. Skinny Jeans, a Simple Top and Medium Heel Shoes

This one is fairly simple, you’d say. I couldn’t agree more with this statement. But apparently, guys just love it. And it’s easy to figure out why. There’s something special about a woman wearing her favorite pair of jeans and radiating the incredible girl-next-door beauty.

Medium heel shoes are a great choice since they will give you the self-confidence you need, and they are comfortable to wear. The last thing you want is to have some shoes that pinch and distract you from your date.

2. Guys Like Canvas Shoes and Dresses? Who Would Have Thought?

This is true ladies. Even though guys generally prefer high heels, they also like it when their dates combine a girly dress with some comfortable canvas shoes. This is a very good idea for active and athletic girls.

Choosing this outfit for your date will show him that you’re aware of your qualities, and your inner beauty, and that you’re not afraid of experimenting every once in a while.

3. Over the Knee Boots

God bless whoever invented over-the-knee boots! If you had a dime for every time you thought that, you know where you’d be now. You are definitely not a true heartbreaker if you don’t own a pair.

Combine your incredible leather boots with whatever you like, jeans, skirts, dresses, leggings, you name it. Even if you decide not to wear them on the first date, mention that you have them somewhere stashed in your closet, and that will drive him crazy.

4. The Perfect Date Night: Dinner and a Movie

Gentlemen like elegance, and the famous «dinner and a movie» date is a great opportunity for you to express your feminine side, and show that you have class. Since you probably don’t know the kind of restaurant he has in mind for your first date, it is advisable not to exaggerate when choosing your outfit.

Go for something subtle, delicate and romantic. Guys love classic outfits, such as, the little black dress, the polka dot dress, the red dress. High heels are inevitable for these occasions. Make sure that you choose garments which are made of nicer materials. Let’s just hope, after all this effort, that you don’t end up watching a teenage comedy, and eating burgers.

So there you go girls. Dressing up is important, but having a radiant personality, and an incredible smile, are the best two things in the world. Wear them to your date and he will be knocked off his feet.
