Few occasion have the most confident dressers flustered like a first date. It’s stressful, I get it. That’s what I’m here for.
But first, let me introduce you to Cuffed - a new take in the stale world of dating apps. Cuffed is a members only, one match dating app. Which basically means, once you match with someone, you are only able to chat and focus on them. This has led to 20 times more dates than the standard dating app and significantly lessens the mindless swiping of it all. So, if you value quality over quantity and you’re ready to find something real - you need to get on Cuffed.
Now, back to the clothing, here are 3 outfit formulas you should keep in mind next time you're unnerved in front of the mirror minutes before you are suppose to be leaving for a first date.
Fancy Dinner
mock neck sweater + leather jacket + trousers + sleek boot
For a dinner date, we want to convey confidence and provoke interest. Go with a mock neck/turtle neck sweater, some flowy trousers, a sleek boot and alwayssss have a jacket.
Coffee
sweater polo + trousers + loafers
For a low stakes coffee date, you’ll want to opt for something classy but casual. Play up your best qualities but don’t look like you’ve tried too hard. I think a sweater polo with trousers and a loafer would be perfect.
Brunch
button down + crewneck sweater + trench coat + jeans + loafers
For a brunch date, you’ll want to go with something comfortable nit can also handle the potential of an overtime adventure. A sweater over a button down with a trench on top, aired with jeans and loafers - I love. The key here is in the styling. Leave the shirt itself untucked, but hide the collar. Yes, you’ll look undone - but in a chic way.
As always, thank you for being here and supporting me in this way xo
