Fashion : 5 Hot Summer Date Night Outfit Ideas.
Long nights, warm weather, light breeze, and a certain carefree feeling in the air – summer is truly the ideal time for a romantic date. Planning an outfit for a summer date is, on the other hand, often a daunting task, as bringing some creativity and fullness to your look with layering is nearly impossible.
Simplicity and comfort are the best combination, so here are some of the top outfit ideas for a romantic summer date night you are bound to love:
1. Creative styling
High summertime temperatures are the perfect excuse for more casual, revealing outfits. So, why not give your look a little-unexpected twist? Don’t let the cute designer swimwear you invested in this season go to waste by only showing it off at the beach, incorporate it into your date night outfit instead. An intricately designed one-piece goes perfectly with a pair of breezy summer pants, while a supportive bikini top pairs well with a silk slip skirt or high-waisted trousers. The best thing about adding swimwear to your outfit is that it gives you room to accessorize however you want. Whether you opt for a pair of sneakers for a more casual look or cute high-heeled sandals for something more elegant, you are definitely going to stun your hot date with this outfit.
2. Classic with a twist
We all have a staple button-down and a pair of perfectly fitting jeans in our closet as our go-to outfit for almost any occasion, but we rarely think about adding some creativity to this overworn look. While a simple French tuck is a safe bet, why not try unbuttoning your shirt and tying it at the front for a sexier summer look? A nice lace bra barely peeking through is a great touch, paired with some minimalistic jewellery, as not to overpower the look. If you are feeling bold, though, you can also choose a pair of brightly-colored heels to give your outfit an unexpected flare. These tiny details truly transform a classic outfit into something more fashionable and more interesting.
3. Romantic look
Sometimes you just want to go all out with that perfect romantic look, and what better way to do that than by wearing a floral summer dress? If you’re feeling confident, opt for a deep v-neck mini dress for that bold, dramatic look. If that is not your forte, then an elegant well-fitting midi dress is the perfect option for you. Either way, try to stick to neutral shoes and accessories when wearing printed or brightly-coloured outfits. Don’t distract the eye and overpower the look with too many prints and colours; let the dress speak for itself.
4. Street-style chic
Street style outfits are possibly the best way to find inspiration for a casual, yet put-together, modern look, which is a great option for a date night out. As street style is often dominated by neutral colours, the best place to start would be a pair of white denim shorts and a striped or printed black and white t-shirt. Put on a well-tailored lightweight blazer to make the look less casual and more date-appropriate. Opt for a black pair of flats and your favourite staple handbag and you’re ready to go. Just don’t forget to top the look off with some delicate jewellery, like a statement watch and layered rings and necklaces.
5. Casual elegance
A simple outfit that radiates elegance is one of the best date night choices you can go for. A basic tank top paired with wide pants or a midi skirt is always a safe bet. You don’t have to wear heels if you are not feeling up to it; this look goes perfectly with a pair of leather slides or chic mules. Finish it off with some statement earrings or a statement necklace and you are bound to dazzle your date with this beautifully elegant look.
