WHAT TO WEAR ON A DATE: ONE DRESS, TWO WAYS

Not only is it hard enough to date in your 20's it's even harder to find someone you feel compatible with. In an ever changing world of the Internet and social media, some people choose to opt for dating sites and apps to assist in their search for 'the one.' 

Dating app giant Badoo is just that, whether you're looking for a new friend or something a little bit more romantic, Badoo is perfect to find likeminded people no matter what you're looking for. With over 311 million worldwide users, there's sure to be someone out there for you! Unlike other popular apps, Badoo has a video function which allows viewers to upload 15 second video clips allowing you to really see what a person looks like and so you can find out more about their true personality. The video's are all assessed by one of Badoo's 5,000 moderators to ensure they are respectful and inline with the Badoo's guidelines. They say pictures speak a thousand words, so what does a thousand words say? 

Now you've got the date sorted it's all about that perfect outfit which can sometimes prove to be difficult, especially if you don't know where you're going. Guys (and girls) think going on a surprise date is cute but what they don't understand is you sometimes need a little bit of an idea so you can plan your outfit accordingly. Here I've styled one dress in two ways to show how you can create two different looks with a simple swap of accessories.

The Day Date

Here I've selected my favourite LBD from ASOS White collection, simple and black but with those modern details that really give this piece that 'WOW' factor. Styling it with an Oversized Grey Trench and Black Zara Black Leather Slip On Mules for extra comfort. Adding a little pop of colour with the Jonathan Saunders for Radley Crossbody Bag, this outfit would be perfect for any day date... Unless it was a theme park then these shoes would definitely fall off haha!

The Evening Date

If you were opting for something a little more 'drinks and dinner' then I'd wear the same dress on it's own with nude accessories. Selecting the Blush Wrap Heels from Topshop (nude shoes are perfect for elongating your legs) with a cute little Patchwork Shoulder Bag from Riverisland and this Olivia Burton Watch, this outfit would be perfect for that dinner-to-bar evening.
