TIPS FOR YOUR FIRST DATE..(FOR LADIES)

Borrow a few chosen pieces of advice on preparing for a first date.

Drinks first, dinner later
Go for drinks, not supper on a first date. You don't want to go to a swish restaurant and then endure hours of awkwardness till the bill arrives. So, always do a drink test first. If you are getting on well, only then agree to go for supper with him.

Get busy
No, we aren't talking about getting between the sheets with him on a first date! Try to keep your life busy. Otherwise you'll overthink the situation with your new man. Distract yourself as much as possible beforehand.

Look effortlessly good
Look good without overdoing it. You don't want to come across as someone trying too hard to impress her date. On a first date, wear jeans and a cute blouse, or smart trousers with a cool top and heels. Show off your best assets but not all of them at the same time.

Smell good
Studies show that the way a woman smells adds to her attractiveness. Pack your handbag with perfume and mints. Smell good, but don't drown yourself in it.

Do overdo the make-up
Don't wear lots of make-up on a first date. If looking natural isn't good enough for him, then he isn't even vaguely good enough for you. Too much make-up could make you look tarty.
