... what to wear to make a fab first impression...
according to men.
* * *
I always say, "it's what's on the inside that counts", & I hold true to my word, but any sort of relationship, whether professional or what not, starts with a first impression.
Make it good!
Being single & a communication major, gender studies are intriguing to me.
Michelle Scanga, fellow blogger from WhoWhatWear , recently posted an article, "5 Items That Make Women Scientifically More Attractive", that outlined the top 5 staples females should have in their closet. According to men, from scientific studies....
Heels
* * *
Check.
Probably my top staple in my wardrobe. Those that know me, know I love my heels. Apparently women wearing heels are more approachable. For me, I feel like I can conquer the world with my heels on! Gotta, rock 'em!
Red Clothing
* * *
Check.
Red use to be one of my favorite colors to wear (behind black!), so I can check number 2 off the list. The color red enhances a male's attraction. Whether it be a dress, shoes, scarf, pants, even red lipstick, make sure there is something red in your outfit! My favorite? Red pants.
Black Dresses
* * *
Check.
Every female needs that one "go-to" little black dress. In the article, Michelle quotes Elizabeth Hawes (one of the most brilliant American fashion designers): "Five out of five men are said to look twice at any girl in a black dress". What girl doesn't want to turn heads of a potential catch!
Sleeveless Tops
* * *
Check.
Interesting fact: men prefer a woman's arms over her legs (according to a study from the University of New South Whales). That's a new one for me. But I'm also not a man. This look can be worn year around, which is a plus!
... I mean, it is 70 degrees in the middle of December...
Bodycon Dresses
* * *
No check.
Studies show that men prefer hourglass shaped women. They apparently also like a woman to show it off with this style dress. One rule, keep it classy ladies. You know your body style, so I'll let you be the judge of that!
I will admit, this is not in my closet. Breathing room is key for me. But hey, if you got it, flaunt it sister!
* * *
Tonight I will be going to my first Charlotte Checkers hockey game ( Go Checkers!) & will probably incorporate a few things on the list. Not heels though, not the right attire for an arena. Scratch that, maybe just the red article of clothing!
Wish me luck!
