Whatever makes you feel confident and attractive of course

Go and buy something new if need be

Good luck!!

PS Who's the lucky man?!

TheOozingPusOfSeptimusSquelch · 20/10/2009 22:25

Can't buy anything else new 'til payday

I have a nice new coat, but as to what to wear underneath it, I haven't got a clue. Presumably I do have to wear something underneath it, right?

lunch date at the weekend? then jeans ok, unless its a smart place. nice top in a colour. not black unless you look GREAT in black.

if during the week then what you normally wear to work ( assuming you are going in your lunch break)

date will not notice smart coat unless you plan to wear it during the meal. esp if its a man

Oh no, I am A Nice Girl and will not be showing off my underwear or getting laid on a (first) lunch date.

Although of course one never knows ones luck

My advice

Wear heels, not wedges

either show off leg or cleavage but obviously not both at the same time

it's fine to wear jeans but I would wear skinny jeans as they show your figure off more

LetThemEatCake · 21/10/2009 11:16

Nice knickers def, even if not on show.... Just to make you feel a bit ooh la la

I'd go for tactile/ textured stuff... Sends a subliminal message (in the words of susan Sarandon.... T t t t t tooouch meeeee)

Knit dress and boots?
Cord skirt, sweater, boots?

Wish I was going on a date!! Have fun

TheOozingPusOfSeptimusSquelch · 21/10/2009 17:51

Thanks for your suggestions So - heeled boots, jeans, no pants nice pants, and nicely textured top / tunic (I havethis one - is it too dull? Need nice accessories I suppose)

I am so overthinking this. Haven't been on a date in aaages so maybe this is a way displacing the nerves. He says he'll be wearing crushed velvet loon pants and a green tank top.
