WHAT TO WEAR: Date Night

date night dress

We recently started a new “What to Wear” series with Nasty Gal, and we featured what to wear to an outdoor festival (see here). Today we are sharing a go-to “date night” look. The hardest part about any date is deciding what to wear – you never want to look overdressed, nor do you want to look underdressed – just that simple, feminine look that says “oh I just threw this on”… despite the hour-long changing sesh.

A strappy summer dress is always my first choice for date night (whether it’s the first date or a special night out with a bf), because there’s something about a flirty dress that is feminine and sophisticated. Paying attention to fabric and shape is always key to choosing the right dress – silks and sequins are definitely too much, and a dress that’s fitted but not too short is always appropriate. This fit and flare dress from Nasty Gal is a great choice for anyone looking for a go-to. The fitted top with the flowy skirt is the right amount of shape, and the bright red hue is eye-catching – flirty and girly, just what date night should be about.

Check out my look below and shop the links to get my style. Best of all, this dress is now on sale for only $47!
