What to wear on a movie date.

Posted 14 Jul 2009

I am a HUGE movie fanatic and will go see just about anything; sometimes just to eat the popcorn, which often misses my mouth and goes down my top. As you can guess, I often find popcorn falling out of my top hours later…but as usual, I digress.

Yesterday, I had a wonderful movie date with my mom. We went to see The Proposal. We loved it and so did all of the couples around us…hmmm, so it isn’t just a chick flick, guys can go too? Anyway, as we leave the movie and I duck into the restroom to shake the popcorn from my dress, I see the cutest thing…a woman at the movies all “dolled” up.  It catches me off guard at first because I’m used to seeing jeans when women are on movie dates.  Heels, trendy tops and a big bag has become the signature look for a movie date.

I love it that this woman wore a great dress, heels and a very girl bag.  But wouldn’t it be nice to not look like everybody else?

Well, here are some suggestions for movie looks that will make him look twice and keep you warm; although, if you look hot enough, he will provide plenty of body heat.  (The looks are for inspiration only!)

Love movies too? Check out the trailer for SHUTTER ISLAND, the latest collaboration between Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese. It doesn’t come out until October, but you can get a sneak peek right here, courtesy of Hollywood 411! Watch it at your own risk, it has been deemed Scorsese’s scariest movie to date!

P.S. Have you got Kerosates in your area? Well, join their $5 Buck Club, it’s free. Who can’t use a discount for the movie these days?
