First dates

First dates

I remember my first date, the worry of what to wear, how to act and even if you are going to get the kiss at the end.

Im going to be telling you some tips for dates and also some outfits to wear for a variety of different locations

where to go

Now before you even get into worrying about outfits and makeup, you have to decide a nice location. Maybe your in a situation where he has chosen the place, if so, lucky you. For anyone that has been told its their choice, can feel like its a very daunting choice. You could go to the cinema and watch a film, which is very good if you are a very quiet and nervous person because not much talking is involved, but if you want to get to know a date better, maybe go for a coffee and chat or take a picnic to the park.

what to wear 

So you are in your bedroom clothes all over the floor and you feel like not one outfit is good enough, if your at this stage take a breather, remember you are dressing to impress the date but your also dressing to impress yourself. For my first date i made the mistake of wearing tight jeans that obviously didn't fit me anymore, because i wanted to look nice. Girls, if something doesn't feel comfortable don't wear it!! There is nothing worse then sitting with a date, with a massive stomach ache because of tight jeans and loss of air because a top is too tight. Wear something casual that you feel comfortable and nice in. If you feel confident, it will make your date feel confident. Maybe try some jeans and a baggy jumper, or a skirt with a baggy shirt, if you want to be more fancy go for a dress with ankle boots.

Makeup

Now this can be the worst part of the whole getting ready process. Now girls listen up boys do not want to see their date with spider leg eyelashes and a orange face. The more natural the better. You may think that the date will want to see you plastered in makeup but in fact, they want to see a more natural you. Maybe try a light lip, a light smokey eye and maybe some bronzer. With this look you still feel confident but you don't look like a completely new person.
Here are some links to some makeup tutorials i think look perfect for a date:

How to act.

Now i know you probably hear this all the time but be yourself. If you don't it can backfire a lot. If he asks if you like cheese and you hate it, don't say you love it because he may offer you some later and that would look bad on your part. If you lie to him and he finds out, he may question other things you have said. Its ok not to like everything he likes, as the saying goes, opposites attract.
Remember to bring money, if you are going on a date, don't always expect him to pay for you, if he offers thats great but if he doesn't your stuffed. He will also find it nice that you respect him and don't expect him to do everything for you.

The end of the date 

Now in every moving you have ever seen the romantic date always ends in a kiss, in real life this may not be the case. Don't force a kiss upon someone, if you want to wait until you know each other more, don't feel bad to reject the kiss. Now you will not be perfect at it the first time so don't expect to be a pro and go straight for a french kiss. Remember you have only been on one date with the guy and you don't want to rush things


Good luck girls, remember there is always more fish in the sea
