Clothes for a first meeting(or a casual "date")

[Popsandfriends]

Hello again,
In about 3 or 4 weeks, I am meeting a girl I met off of myspace about two towns over. She just one day said "we should meet, if thats ok with you" so I figured wow, when I do....what should I wear

Should I be looking for a very casual appearance, or should I maybe dress it up a tad bit (ie a dress shirt, untucked w/jeans). Before I ask any more questions, I'll let you provide me with some feedback.

Thanks!
Hunter

provide us with a pic of the girl and we will let you know

I would say to spruce it up a little but but dont come off "dressy." I have found that going all out on my dress has made me unapproachable, or too high class, as told to me by many people I come in contact with.

seeing as you met them on myspace i'd recommend this
jacket to be on the safe-side
along with some nice thick 21oz jeans

A dress shirt and jeans would be the minimum I would wear. Especially if it's in the evening, I'd add a casual sportcoat (

jackets are designed to accentuate masculine features). And obviously, dressy shoes.

oh man...i laughed out loud at that hahaha.

so...minimum. last date i went on, i was severely overdressed haha...im worried cause this isnt really a date cause that word was never used lol.

However you normally dress, dress that way but it would depend on what you've got planned for the evening. We're talking about some random chick off myspace, not some high class hooker, right? (Not rhetorical)

What would Jack Bauer do?

Jack bauer wouldnt have time....

Im thinking about just doing this style now actually:

Make it a daytime or afternoon casual meeting at someplace like a coffeeshop. Dress just well enough to be the best dressed guy there.

And since this is some random myspace chick, warning signs include 1) An adam's apple, 2) Some guy in a fur coat coming over to ask how you like her when she is in the washroom

You made plans 3 or 4 weeks in advance with an internet chick? I'll be suprised if this "date" actually happens.

Anyway, wear whatever you want to wear.

Haha, yeah, what the hell?

Who plans a date a month in advance?

 

[Popsandfriends]

haha, it would have taken a huge CIA/FBI like conspiracy to set all this up. I hope shes a woman though! lol you never can be sure. Im pretty picky about how I look when I go out, its a bit of OCD or something, so i'll def dress the part.

 

[VMan]

Nothing less than full evening dress.

As far as stuff in my wardrobe goes...I'd probably wear a corduroy blazer over a light v-neck, jeans, and ankle boots.
