Candice writes, “Help please! I am going to Dave and Busters for my first date and I want to look sexy and chic. Can you help me with some looks??”
Of course! Dave and Busters is a casual place to indulge in arcade games, eats, and fun. Looking low key yet sexy is sometimes difficult, but the summer months allow us a little gem that treads the line nicely: playsuits. The onesie is fun and flirty, can be dressed up or down with flats or wedges, and is endlessly saucy:
I’d recommend getting one in a muted color and playing it up with either flats or a wedge if you’re feeling racy. Accent with stacked bangles, hoops, and a cross body bag:
If you don’t mind making a splash (ahem, me), go for a playsuit in ravishing yellow.
Finish with a wedge or keep it cool in a pop colored flat:
And lastly, if you just want to kick it and be casual, opt for a capri pant and a simple tank.
Slip on a wedge if you’re feeling frisky, or feel relaxed in a cheeky pair of sneakers. Add interest with a red lip and diamond studs.
What do you think?
Which look would you rock?
*Note, the tank in the last collage is from H&M. The bag in collage 2 is by Kate Spade.

I like all three looks, but the last is my fave. The first two looks while very cute, might come off as trying too hard. I do think the first two looks are great second date outfits and can be glammed up a little for the night.

I like all of the looks save for the capti’s,just not my thing.I really love the yellow play suit.

The first two options are adorable…yet entirely too dressy for Dave & Buster’s! That last option is the best bet unless you’re hitting up a very trendy branch of the franchise. Otherwise you might feel a bit to “diva-fied” for the occasion/surroundings.

Lovely selections Claire! Personally I would rock option 1 or 2, I like option 3 but it seems TOO relaxed for a date for me personally but all are great picks

Number one <3 love it, I need that!
April 28, 2012 8:13 pm
Bravo! Great post, Claire!

Very cute! I love the playsuits, the capris–not so much.
April 28, 2012 9:07 pm
Great looks. Love the colors. The yellow bag is hot.

I wouldnt recommend d&b for a first date- entirely too noisy. I think outfit #3 would be best though.

I abs love the last outfit … that is something I would wear!
April 29, 2012 11:31 am
outfit #2 is def my fav. i think wearing the playsuit with flats would definitely keep it casual enough for d&b.
April 29, 2012 3:27 pm
I absolutely adore the first look. The trendy mint green accents make me want to holler I’m loving it so much.
April 29, 2012 4:33 pm
The outfits in the first two pictures are sharp! Love the all the shoes and handbags.

Outfit #3 is best for Dave & Buster’s. That place is more chill and relaxed, but you don’t want to look bummy for your 1st date. The wedge heels look a little more polished to finish the look or maybe some wedge sneaks. I love the other two looks as well, but I think that’s more appropriate for going to a trendy restaurant on the beach or to a nice show/concert.

The dress from Net a Porter is awesome but that reminds me the one I saw on at a French vintage store Fille de Joie, my favorite store for shopping lovers. I read an article about this awesome store on http://www.frenchcultureguide.com/07/ccs-vintage-wonders/
April 30, 2012 12:09 pm
<3 the first outfit!!
April 30, 2012 12:11 pm
Fun looks!
April 30, 2012 12:14 pm
Instead of capris or the 3rd look she could opt for black shorts and that would dress it up a little more. I love outfits one and two. Great selection!
