Greg Smith
When you are dating, one of the most forgotten aspects is appearance. Believe it or not, your appearance speaks volumes about you, especially when you are trying to impress the other person.

There are some tricks to the trade to make sure you have the right dating attire. You may not need to go out and buy that new outfit and can keep that money to maybe spend out on your date.

Here are a few ideas to keep in mind when determining not only your dating wardrobe but the clothes you have at home to pick from.

Never wear your homely comfortable clothes on a date. You want to put your best foot forward. And even though you want to be comfortable, you should be more concerned with how your date will perceive you. Sweat pants, sweatshirts and over sized T-shirts should be left at home. If you want to feel a little comfy, try wearing a nice shirt blouse, jeans and a nice pair of shoes.

There are essential pieces that both men and women should have in their wardrobe. These pieces will allow you to be able to mix and match your outfits in numerous ways so you can have an unlimited number of outfits. Although this is not a final list, you should make sure you have these clothes in your closet at all times.

There are certain pieces of clothing all men should have in their closet. Starting with the top, men should have at least one pack of clean, white undershirts with no stains. They should also have a variety of nice fitting and colorful T-shirts. When looking at more casual wear, a blue and a light blue long sleeve shirt with color should be a given. If you want to spice it up, add a few long sleeve shirts with stripes. Don't forget to make sure you have a black and navy sports coat. And to finish it off, a brown, navy or black pea coat should go with any casual outfit.

For pants, men should always have black casual pants and jeans in their closet. And it's a must to have at least 2 pair of nice blue jeans that don't have that worn out look. Also a few nice looking khakis will round out a very masculine but sexy wardrobe.

For women, we'll start off with some simple summer dresses (for summer time of course) and nice sandals to match. Always a good catch are jeans that stretch and Levi's that have a hint of fade to them. Long skirts work well all year around and you can never go wrong with black pants that are either loose or form fitting. You should have a few turtlenecks for when it's cold and a nice neutral color coat that you can throw on over everything. Finally, make sure you have a variety of T-shirts and blouses that you can wear either with jeans, skirts or slacks.

Take these tips to sure up your wardrobe and look like a winner for whoever you're dating.
