Complete guide on coming up with an elegant outfit for your first date (2024 Guide on looking luxe on that first date)

The first thing you should remember is that you need an outfit that makes you comfortable and confident and makes you feel beautiful. Avoid clothes with big logos and those that show off so much skin. Also, avoid trendy outfits because that is fast fashion and may not fall in the elegant bracket. Also, low heels and minimal makeup make it so luxe. Always pick an outfit that rhymes with your signature look. Believe it or not, this year was the first time I went on an ideal date with a man who is almost my type. Hunny, I was so scared because I didn’t know how to act or how the date would go. But I knew I would get my confidence from an outfit that I would wear; that is always my trick—fashion confidence. Since my hobby and passion is fashion, it was fun to come up with an elegant outfit for that date. However, you can never know everything, so I did some research. Today, I want to help you, sis; I know you don’t know what to wear to look elegant on a first date. So read on to get solutions.

Tips you need to stay elegant on your first date

1.Avoid new clothes

First, you should consider something other than heading to a store for a new outfit. I get it you want to look your best for yourself and your potential suitor, but you do not need to buy an outfit. Here is why: you might get an outfit that looks good when you try it, but when you wear it on the actual date, you start feeling uncomfortable. The trick is to wear something you are used to, and you are sure you will feel comfortable throughout

2.Choose an outfit that makes you more confident.

You are going on your first date, and I bet you do not want to lose your confidence or feel embarrassed. Pick an outfit that makes you so confident. That one outfit that makes you feel like you are missing the world and everyone is watching you.

3.Wear clothes that suit your personality.

So many people say that date nights are meant for certain dresses, but what if dresses do not suit your personality? Okay, here is the thing: you want to pick an outfit that creates an impression of the authentic you. If you go for an outfit that is termed as ideal and does not suit you, you will not only be uncomfortable, but you will also have trouble maintaining that style if you meet up again. In short, pick an outfit that is not parallel to your signature look.

4.Balance your outfit

Also, another tip is that you should balance your outfit. If your top shows a lot of skin, then have a bottom that shows less or none, and vice versa.

5.Avoid big logos

Also, you don’t want to look so trendy on your first date; you want to look elegant but not try to prove a point that you can afford certain brands. Therefore, avoid clothes that have big logos. Instead, go for silent, small logos because it is classy. This applies best to your handbags, watches, and jewelry.

6.Low heels

Yes, you need to wear at most three inches, no matter how tall you want to be. There is no problem with wanting to be tall, but will you be comfortable walking in those shoes? Choose shoes that make you look sexy and comfortable at the same time. Also, if it is a night date, you might want to go with closed-heeled shoes. Open heels are best for the daytime. Again, do not let your sandals or sneakers get involved on your first date. Be as feminine as possible.

7.Minimal make up

On your first date with this person, you want to look as natural as possible. So, just use minimal makeup. Remember to do that skincare routine first.

8.Smell Nice

This should never be missed on your fingertips; please smell nice! I advise you to go for your signature perfume, and I hope it is not so strong. If your signature perfume is too strong, look for another one. Do not forget your body splash. Guys, remember how you smell; the secret is also your scent, breath, and hair (even though you won’t allow him to sniff)

9.Minimal jewelry/ accessories

Jewelry has a lot to say about your elegance. They make a statement for you before you even say a word. So go for unique, minimalistic jewelry and accessories. If your top shows a lot of skin, then have a simple but class necklace to compliment it. If you are going to pull back your high, which I highly recommend, you can go with long, classy earrings. A watch should never be missed, hunny. You need to keep time! On other jewelry, you can select the best but have a maximum of three.
