Spring Date Night Outfits for Your Lifestyle

Besides the obvious of dressing for the occasion, your date night outfit might depend on where you’ve already been that day or, alternatively, rely on a little advanced scheduling. Jam-packed days don’t always allow for as much primp and prep time as say, a well-organized weekend rendezvous. But that shouldn’t keep you from stunning your S.O. each time.

Whether you’re meeting up for dinner and drinks after work or rushing home to stay in and play the who’s most likely to game, your S.O. is your sole focus for the evening. And that means you need foolproof date night options that impress every time — no matter what the rest of your day involves.

Here are three no-fail date night outfits for spring.

When you’re headed straight from the office

If you leave the office wearing a poised dress and blazer, ditch the tailored topper at 5 for a fresh little leather jacket.

If it’s trousers you’re rocking, swap your crisp button front shirt or soft sweater shell for an airy blouse. Slip into something with slinky straps or a flattering V-neckline to show off a little skin as the nights get warmer.

For more formal moments, you can’t miss with a slip dress. The slip dress is easily styled up for down depending on the occasion and the night’s plans. For high style, choose strappy sandals, dainty jewelry and a classic clutch bag. Or, keep things real with flat-soled sandals and your best denim jacket. Just remember to ask for your SO’s help when it’s time to lose the jacket (and turn up the heat).

Spring date night FAQs

If the above outfit ideas don’t apply to you, hopefully you’ll find your answers in our spring date night FAQs.

Besides the above, are there default spring date night outfits I should consider?

You can always go for a light sweater or pretty blouse paired with chinos or jeans. Consider bringing a light jacket, too, in case the weather turns sour.

Can I wear shorts on a spring date?

You can certainly wear shorts if the occasion demands it and you know your date well. A beach party with friends is an example. If your date is new in your life, you may opt for a flirty skort or sundress rather than shorts just to avoid making too-casual of an impression.

What colors should I wear on a spring date?

Pastels and florals are great choices, especially for daytime dates. Nighttime dates give you more flexibility to wear darker, richer hues.

How much should I accessorize?

Wear fewer accessories than you think you need. You want your true self to shine through, which can be tough if there are too many sparkles and baubles in the way.

What else should I know about dressing for a spring date?

Always check the weather forecast. This seemingly obvious step is easy to forget if you’re stressing about what to wear. If there’s rain predicted plan on bringing an umbrella and light jacket. You’ll also want to wear appropriate shoes. If there’s wind in the forecast, stash a face spritzer in your bag to refresh wind-dried skin and consider pulling your hair back in a low ponytail or something similar.
