Invest in worthy summer accessories, including cat eye sunglasses, oversized chunky gold jewellery, hair scarves, and scrunchies.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What should I wear to a 1st date in Summers?
The options for styling an outfit for your first date are endless. But the key to dressing on this occasion is wearing what you are most comfortable with. Chances are, you might not be entirely yourself in the beginning, but wearing an outfit that represents you will nudge you to open up, relax and let your beautiful personality shine through!
I would advise stepping things up and flaunting what you have with a cheeky halter-neck dress! If a short halter neck is not your style and you don’t feel overly comfortable with showing off a bit more, you can throw on a summer cardigan over it.
Contrarily, you can also rock a plain-colored maxi dress! These are great for accentuating the waist without going overboard, so accessorize with a belt for added effect. A cute blouse with jeans and heels is also a great option to make you stand out without looking like you put in too much effort!
Q. How to dress casually for an outdoor summer date?
Your safest bet to feel your cutest and most comfortable for an outdoor date is a pretty little dress with sneakers. You can make this outfit as dressy as you want to! For a casual look, go for a short floral tiered dress. And to make it fancy, silk or satin dresses are the way to go!
Q. Where to buy ?
The majority of mainstream brands carry an excellent collection that is perfect for first-date items. They are super cute and affordable too! You should check brands like Pretty Little Thing, Princess Polly, Nordstrom, ASOS, SheIn, and Madewell to put together a stylish look!
