The Importance of Dressing for Online Dates

Dressing up for online dates is crucial, unless you’re going for the “I’ve just rolled out of bed and I’m still kinda asleep” look. And let’s be real, that’s a valid look… for a different kind of date, maybe one with a mattress and a Netflix subscription. But if you want to make a good impression, put on some real clothes, not just the ones you wear to real life. As the saying goes, “dress for the job you want, not the job you have.” In this case, dress for the date you want, not the sweatpants you’re currently wearing!
Trust us, your date will appreciate it, or at the very least, they’ll be mildly entertained by your questionable fashion choices.

• You might actually feel more confident
• Your date might actually take you seriously
• You won’t have to explain why you’re wearing a stained t-shirt

As the great fashion philosopher, Ferris Bueller, once said, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” And trust us, you don’t want to miss the memo on camera-friendly clothing.
