Everyone’s most stressful fashion moment is a first impression. Whether it be a first date, an interview or the first day of school, Fashionistas/os everywhere struggle to find the perfect outfit. Meeting the parents can be particularly challenging because there has to be a balance of being a “nice girl/guy” as well as “good enough” for their son or daughter. Mixing classic with something trendy can give anyone facing their moment with the parents the right impression.
With her trendy dress and classic sandals, this Fashionista is ready to make anyone’s parents love her. The casual fringe dress and strappy sandals make her look respectable, but fun. For summer fringe is a fun way to spice up a look and is incredibly on-trend as it was featured on 2015 fall and spring runways, like Proenza Schouler’s ready-to-wear. Strappy sandals give the look a more casual feel without seeming as laid-back as flip flops.
The trendy dress will do all the personality talking. All accessories, hair and makeup are kept to a minimum, so that the first impression isn’t too in-your-face. The modest jewelry, like her dangling earrings, puts emphasis on her smiling face and the watch adds a little sparkle to her wrist. On top of that, simple hair and makeup keep the look elegant and beautiful.
One Simple Change: Headed on a date afterward? Slide on your favorite wedges and smudge on a little more eye makeup. The two will jumpstart your outfit into nighttime mode, and you’re sure to stop your boyfriend’s heart.
