Functionality over romance

The theme for this outfit was supposed to be 'date night', but with the mandatory use of jeans and a cami.  I have a few problems with this.  Firstly, "date night" is a really ambiguous term.  Are we talking about a date to impress a potential suitor or a date with a boyfriend?  Because they are two very different things.  I mean, if it's a date with a boyfriend, I've already hooked him so I'm a little less concerned with having to look absolutely stunning.  And since most dates revolve around a meal, I'd wear a dress/skirt instead of jeans...y'know, gotta wear something that can expand and make room for (or hide) extra food width.  What, you thought I wore dresses just to be pretty?  Pfft, it's all about the functionality needed when eating.  Yep, I'm romantic like that.

    I think that's a lovely date outfit, especially the feminine shoes!
    Well..if it was a date with the bf, we've gone out so rarely I forgot how to walk, so whenever we go out I dress up like the Queen of England :D Pathetic :D

    I really like this outfit - great for a date where you don't want to look like you tried to hard to get 'dolled up' but you still want to look really sexy.
    Congrats on getting in the finals! I hope you win!

    beautiful outfit you look very pretty in red :)
    when it comes to dating i think we should focus on the whole image not sth that looks too much but sth that makes us feel comfortable

    kisses dear!

    Man, you think just like me. Love it! Date night for me means loose clothes so I can eat to my hearts content HAHA :)

    I love that you broke down the types of date nights out there - I would definitely dress differently for both as well. Either way, your outfit is date night appropriate. Love the red!
