4 Secrets to Feeling Sexy For A First Date
As fun and exciting as first dates are, sometimes that feeling is overshadowed by nerves and self-confidence meltdowns. Thinking about what to wear and what to say can bring plenty of hopeful singles dating out in a cold sweat. Preparing for and surviving first dates is a skill, that just needs a little bit of good prep. In this article, we take a look at 4 secrets to feeling sexy for a first date, which will give you all the first date confidence you should need.
4 Secrets to Feeling Sexy for a First Date
Here are 4 secrets to try that should ensure you’re always feeling sexy for a first date.
1. Wear something you know you feel good in
We know that you want to go shopping and get something small and slinky for that first date but stop. That little black dress that you’re about to buy is just going to have you spending hours hoping that your stomach is sucked in enough and whether it’s too long or too short. Instead head to your wardrobe. Go through it and find that outfit that you feel GREAT in. If it’s that trusty pair of jeans, then find ways to dress them up to be sexy for your date with your choice of top or accessories. One big mistake many singles make is to wear something they think makes them look more sexy or attractive. When in fact it has the reverse effect because they make us feel uncomfortable or self conscious the whole evening.
2. Treat yourself to some sexy underwear
This doesn’t mean that you should be progressing things too fast on your first date. But it’s a fact that sexy new underwear can raise self confidence. Wearing some slinky underwear can instantly make you feel foxier. Don’t be afraid to spice it up under your clothing, because, while your exterior clothing should be comfy and familiar, your underwear should scream “I’m sexy…and I know it.”
3. Before the date do something relaxing
Rather than working yourself in to a fluster all day just waiting for your date, do something that you find relaxing. Whether it’s a glass of wine (although stick to just the one) in the bath, a trip to the gym, a good chat with a mate – do whatever it is that puts you in a focussed, positive frame of mind. Whatever you do, avoid over-thinking your date, what you’ll do, how it’s going to go and what might come of it. Relax, and keep yourself distracted in the run up to the date, to keep your cool.
4. Say “om”. A recent study in the Journal of Sexual Medicine found that women who regularly practiced yoga felt sexier. Researchers say it could be because yoga forges a stronger mind-body connection through meditation and creates self-confidence, which can lead to feeling more romantic. So, it sounds as though your next purchase should be a yoga mat rather than a killer pair of heels!
