This is my favorite, it’s a bit daring and probably way out of the comfort zone for some guys, but it’s worth it. Don’t be too to go for warmer tones. All you need is; a well-fitted shirt. Even a flowery designed shirt will be perfect for this coupled with form-fitting pants, a t-shirt, loafers, and finally, spice things up with a matching necklace. For the ladies, picking the perfect date outfit is as important as life. Ladies always want to make a statement, but most times, you get confused, it’s either you think it’s too much or too basic.

Midi dresses are my all-time favorite for summer dates, and they are romantic and perfect for first dates. A backless midi dress will make your partner eager to see you again after the first date if you play all your cards right. Step up your summer vibes to look more eccentric with colorful earrings, flat sandals, or kitten heels.

Easy-going but beautiful. For those who love frills, a simple frilled dress is feminine but won’t give off an overly sweet vibe if you pair it with matching sneakers. Highlight your look with a beautiful anklet and let it accentuate your entire outfit. If going to the park, this is your go-to.

Denim

Denim is a classic; regardless of season or year, it’s a go-to for everyone. There are several ways to wear your denim shorts or skirts. You can decide to do something different like denim shorts with a silk camisole, pair it up with sneakers or heels, whatever suits you is fine. The regular high-waisted jeans with a cute crop top feel like showing off a little skin.

Nightlife chic

This chic is bold, daring, and loves knee-high boots. This look is simple but always makes a statement and is highly recommended for night dates. All you need to pull this off is; a cute short gown that sits pretty on you and knee-high boots. To add a little drama, finish the look with waterproof eyeliners, sexy lip gloss, and attractive earrings.
