What to Wear on a Date: Date Outfits for Every Situation

Ah, the elusive perfect date outfit. The ubiquitous comment on date outfits is always the same: “But what will I wear?”

The ‘what to wear on a date’ conundrum has plagued ladies for generations, and for good reason: what to wear on a date depends on who’s asking and where you are going (for example, a cute date outfit with heels would hardly be what to wear on a date to the golf course). This guide will help you decide what to wear on a date so you can focus on not getting past sauce on that perfect date outfit.


What to Wear on a Date During Lunch Hour

Since lunch date outfits often have to serve double duty at a date outfit and a work outfit, it’s important to find a date outfit that can do both. A dress is the perfect lunch date outfit. Just conceal your date outfit by slipping a blazer on. Then add flirty earrings and subtract the blazer for an ideal date outfit.

Another great date outfit is a pair of form-flattering dress pants coupled with a stylish top. Add date outfit flair with some killer heels.


What to Wear on a Date with a Stranger

It’s the era of Internet dating… but what to wear on a date with someone you’ve never even met? With these date outfits, the priority is to show off your personality, since your date outfit will be part of his first impression of you.

Wear a date outfit that reflects your style, like a quirky top or tunic, but stay away from revealing date outfits because it will be awkward if it turns out he’s a creep. Better to go with date outfits that are unique and fun than date outfits that give a stranger the wrong idea.


What to Wear on a Date that is Active

Dating a totally ripped guy is fun. Trying to keep up with a totally ripped guy on a hiking trail is not. If you have to decide what to wear on a date that involves burning calories and aren’t partial to date outfits made up of gym gear, consider the following alternative.

Date outfits with cute, breathable tops in dark colors (that way he won’t be able to see your pit stains) coupled with leggings. Date outfits constructed like this will let you run, jump, or collapse in agony if necessary. Stash another date outfit in your bag so you won’t smell if he wants to treat you to lunch afterwards.


What to Wear on a Date to the Beach

If you are wondering what to wear on a date and know the restaurant is near a romantic stretch of sand, I have a two-word date outfit solution for you: maxi dress. Date outfits consisting of maxi dresses and a simple shawl look über-romantic on the beach. Skip the fancy heels in favor of chic sandals on this date outfit since you might end up getting sand in them.
