They all say not to judge a book by its cover, but let’s be honest: A first impression can mean a lot the initial time you meet somebody. The second you approach someone, what you wear and look like may be the determining point of whether they start a conversation with you or not. If you’re like me, showing off your fun and loving personality can be hard to portray the first time you meet a person, so let your outfit do the talking!
Wearing eye-popping colors and floral patterns: They can instantly attract attention. A bright-colored floral dress is fun and flirty and is a great way to transition into spring. Pleated skirts and dresses are one of my new favorite styles and adding a great pattern makes them even more striking. Make sure your outfit is not too short, just in case someone decides to whisk you away to the dance floor. To give off an edgier vibe add a leather jacket or tall black boots!
Sweaters with large text and graphics on them are a great conversation starter. Depending on the graphics, you can use them to show off your personality and style at the same time. To dress up a graphic sweater, wear it with a pair of skinny jeans in your favorite color, and exhibit your individuality without saying a word!
I have always been a fan of over-the-top jewelry, and I always say, “A little bling never hurt nobody.” Baublebar.com provides a great selection of chunky necklaces and bracelets that add sophistication to any outfit. Whether it’s a tribal collar necklace or a classy pearl choker, jewelry can make a bold statement that will get you noticed! Make sure what you wear and what kind of jewelry you put on says what you want it to say the initial time you meet someone.
Whether it’s a job interview, a first date, or just going downtown with your friends, most people will judge you within the first moment they see you, so putting together a great outfit is one way to make a lasting first impression. This way you can make sure that people are seeing your best side, because you only get one shot to start off on the right foot. Let your outfit do the talking before even saying a word, relax, and don’t be afraid to say hello to new people, because you already know you look fabulous!
