Speed dating outfit.

I'm going speed dating in a couple of weeks. I've spent the last couple of years working on myself, my health and my confidence. Lost 4 stone, got a promotion at work, picked myself up off the floor... Haven't dated seriously. And am finally confident in who I am. I'm going with a friend and treating it as a bit of a laugh, and if I meet someone, great! Anyway, not here for any speed dating stories. Just curious.... If you were to go speed dating tomorrow, what would you wear? Thanks in advance 😊

A wrap dress! Can make it cool with a Jean jacket and boots or wear with heels and a cardigan if that's more your style. If you have long legs and a slim waist I think high waisted wide leg trousers with a really pretty blouse tucked in is a great look also. Not too much jewelry!

Something red/bright and eye catching to be memorable, or something with a taking point like an interesting brooch or something.

I have one beautiful wrap dress but it shows a fair bit of cleavage and I'm not sure that's appropriate for speed dating!

Hmm true...what about a jumpsuit?

I’d wear my leather leggings, ankle boots with a bit of a heel and a pretty blouse, probably one of my high collar long sleeved ones. I’d curl my hair and paint my nails.

I'd wear my mom jeans, mid heel mules and a sexy top. Delicate jewellery, swishy hair and "natural look" make up which is quite a lot of work but looks subtle

Congrats on your weight loss, promotion etc, hope you have a good time at the speed dating!!
