Enjoy your date! Keeping my fingers crossed for you that this guy proves worthy of your affection/attention. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1186228 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 11:23:43 +0000 leopardluxe 1186228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like fun! I'm not sure I agree with the "too soon for leather leggings" sentiment. Depending on what you wear them with and how you accessorize I think they could totally work.&nbsp;</p> <p>Plus, hey, if the guy judges you based on the fact you wear leather leggings on a first date, ummmmm, then I'm guessing he might not end up being a match made in heaven, imho.</p> <p>Wear what you feel good in and is comfortable so your personality shines and you stay focused on having great conversations with your date --not on whether he thinks&nbsp;what you're wearing passes muster. Don't wear anything that will make you feel overly self conscious is my advice&nbsp;&nbsp;--and then have a good time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1186196 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 08:54:56 +0000 Mander 1186196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm also impressed that he googled DVF *and* gave you a fashion opinion! Of course that may turn out to be annoying but it has some promise! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1186190 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 08:18:02 +0000 Deborah 1186190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that he googled DVF:) He could be a keeper!

Rae said what I was going to, only she said it better. If you have to ask what to wear on a second date, then it is too soon for leather leggings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1186058 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 04:05:54 +0000 rae 1186058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree it's too soon for leather leggings... the simplest things can sometimes have strange associations in Guy Land (as I often discover to my dismay). I was going to vote for jeans, a fitted sweater and your Improvd jacket, but I see you are sorted! Have fun!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1186017 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 03:30:02 +0000 Mo 1186017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey, Levi Strauss to go to&nbsp;Strauss - maybe he's being very witty and/or ironic? &nbsp;Maybe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1186011 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 03:26:22 +0000 Beth Ann 1186011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Strauss!&nbsp; Sumptuous, sometimes angular and sometimes elegant,&nbsp; and kinda sexy!&nbsp; (The music that is)</p> <p>For inspiration, a link to my favorite bit of Strauss, from <i>Rosenkavalier</i>, with two of my favorite singers:</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApCuGAVDoIg" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApCuGAVDoIg</a></p> <p>I'm for jeans with a bit of Strauss' Yin/Yang.&nbsp; You know, a bit of Rosenkavalier glamour and a bit of the edginess of Elektra or his orchestral looks.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1185994 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 03:18:19 +0000 Diana 1185994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ps - just realized its a Thursday concert so that probably explains the jeans. At least here, the Thursday concert is usually far less dressed up than fri or sat night concerts. A lot of people come straight from work so there's a lot of just everyday day wear (everything from suits to jeans and a tee but not much evening stuff). I usually dress up a little bit but I wear my outfit to lab beforehand, so nothing super dressy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1185990 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 03:16:56 +0000 pil 1185990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a winning outfit.

You can't wear jeans to the symphony if he's wearing jeans already. That's too much denim in the symphony hall (!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1185860 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 01:24:29 +0000 annagybe 1185860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No I really think a dress is too dressy I just got off the phone with him. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1185858 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 01:24:09 +0000 carter 1185858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too soon for leather leggings?? I don't understand that. TBH, I'm not sure I understand him wearing jeans to the symphony either, but that may be my age talking;-) I don't know your wardrobe very well, but I might wear velvet pants and a sparkly sweater. Probably not much help, but I hope you have a wonderful time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ack-last-minute-second-date-tmw#post-1185854 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 01:23:09 +0000 Angie 1185854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about a dress over the leather leggings?

I thought of wearing an opera dress but he's going casual wearing jeans. My friend says it's too soon for leather leggings. I'm completely stumped as what to wear. Picture of a frosty baboon outside the zoo because I'm using the app. </p>
