First dates can be overwhelming, extremely nerve-racking, and so exciting all at once. So while our nerves are at an ultimate high and our minds are running through all the scenarios, picking out the perfect outfit may be on the top of our list of worries.

Have no fear! We are here to help guide you in selecting the perfect outfit for the perfect night with these top five outfit ideas for your first date.

Your style will revolve around what the two of you have planned that day. Are we looking for casual and comfortable or luxurious and innovative?

Whichever, you prefer it’s important to head into the evening feeling confident and your best self.

If you are unsure about how to dress, consider going with jeans, a complimenting blouse, and a cute pair of heels.

You can never go wrong with a casual fit that keeps you comfortable and stylish. Wedges are a game-changer.

Grab your favorite top, dainty jewelry, strappy wedges, and jeans, and you are good to go. Accessorize with a short layered necklace, small studded earrings, and a couple of rings to match.

Consider bringing a small purse along for the journey as well. This outfit is perfect for dinner and drinks.

Long skirts or maxi dresses are a safe move to make for a first date. While you may be extremely nervous, sometimes heels are not the best way to go.

We have all played the scenario in our heads where we have the most perfect date, a romantic night, and then we trip and fall or snap a heel.

Well, Cinderella, this move may come in handy at the end of the night. However, only this time you get to stick around after the hour strikes 12.

If risking it all for the perfect shoe just adds more stress, try pairing your skirt or dress with a white tennis shoe. You can never go wrong with white tennis shoes. Simple, yet casual.

We understand that not all first dates are simple or casual, so we must be prepared for the perfect, upscale night out with champagne and charcuterie boards.

Listen, the 90s are calling. We’ve asked, they answered. The slip dress is back and better than ever.

So whether it’s a midsummer night and you are looking for a slip mini dress or maybe the date night adventures include a dress code, a slip maxi may be your go-to.

Either way, there are a couple of ways you can style this garment to make it perfect for whatever plans you have in store.

First off, if the night is young and considered a more casual evening. Try pairing a mini halter slip dress with a cardigan and tennis shoes.

Like we said before, as fashion trends recycle themselves, the 90s are back, and they are demanding you pair this cute and causal fit with a claw clip. So grab your crossbody bag and head out for the perfect date.

The best part about this style of dress is you can dress it up or down. So if you are going out on a fancy date night, grab a long and sleek silk halter dress and strappy heels.

Pair this fit with a clutch and claw clip, and you’re ready to go. Nothing screams sultry and confident more than a sleek silk dress with a claw clip.

If you are looking for a classic comfort combo, a printed romper with a cardigan and boots may be a great mix for you. Throw in some accessories like small bracelets, rings, and a belt to match. This is a great first date outfit as you can walk in and feel comfy and confident.

If everything else fails and you feel like you have entirely run out of options, I have news for you. Black is perfect for any occasion.

While you want to avoid looking business casual on your first date, a black leather skirt, dark turtle neck and heels will do the trick. Going to a concert? Pair a black silk cami and distressed denim shorts.

Luckily for us, black never goes out of style and will always be a timeless addition to our wardrobe.

I hope these tips leave you feeling prepared, confident, and ready for your next first date.
