Date night

GERRY CUPIDO geraldine.cupido@inl.co.za

ARMED with a mask and hand sanitizer, a date night is a once again a possibility.

Holding hands across a tiny table for two, naughty whispers of after-dinner delights and admiring each other over the warm glow of candlelights. Quite often food is the last thing on your mind when you’re in a little love bubble even if you’re in a crowded restaurant. Of course a romantic dinner calls for a great date night outfit.

An opportunity to get out of those sweatpants, tights and slippers and at least put on a bra and dust off those heels you haven’t worn in so long. Dressing up for a romantic date shouldn’t be stressful because your date will most like be staring into your eyes most of the night. So keep it simple and comfortable.

One can never go wrong with black. It’s flattering to all and easy to dress up. Your accessories can change your look completely depending on what you’re in the mood for.

1. THE MAXI DRESS

A long flowing maxi-dress is perfect if you’re looking for a more relaxed yet romantic look.

2. THE LITTLE BLACK DRESS

Every woman has one of these in her closet. Show off those curves and a bit of leg if you’re looking for something a bit more sexy.

3. BLACK JUMPSUIT

Most people think of jumpsuits as a more a day look but if dressed up with a pair of sexy heels and the right accessories it can easily be transformed into a comfy evening look.
