Zoom Ready: Date Night
Dating this year has been… a bit of a struggle. Due to covid, it has been hard to go out and meet people, go on dates, and get to know someone. Since quarantine, some people have taken online dating to the next level by having zoom dates since they could not go on in-person dates. How do you get to know someone through zoom? Can a relationship begin in quarantine over the internet? But the real question is… what do you wear on a zoom date?!
One of the best things about zoom is that you only have to look good form the waist up, so on your zoom date you only need to pick a cute top! This makes picking out an outfit so much easier… because you don’t really have to pick an outfit. However, we would recommend that you stick with basic, solid colors for your top. Anything with a crazy pattern might be distracting, and we want you to be the only captivating thing on this date!
Accessories will be your best friend and biggest compliment! Since no one would be able to see your whole outfit, what’s the best way to show off your features? This is where your jewelry comes in. Earrings can help frame your face, so choosing the type of earring based on your face shape will help you shine on your zoom date! If your face shape is oval, you’re in luck because any earrings will flatter you. If you have a square face shape, round earrings will help soften you. Wearing drop or dangle earrings will help elongate someone with a round face shape. And if you have a heart shaped face, then chandelier or teardrop earrings will help balance your face.
As for makeup, doing a simple and natural look is the best way to go. You want to look like yourself and with the quality of zoom, wearing full glam might not present the best on camera. This is why a simple look would be a safer option. But if showing your true self is doing full glam, go for it! Just make sure its clean since your face will be on fullscreen and webcam quality isn’t the best.
One of the best ways to look amazing on zoom and to help you glow, is to know your colors. When you wear the colors that flatter you the most, you glow honey. Your skin brightens, your eyes sparkle, and this is what you need for a zoom date. If you don’t know your ideal colors, a consultation with a personal stylist will help you.

The best advice we can give you is be yourself and don’t be too nervous! There are lots of pros about dating over zoom. It’s safer, not only because of covid, but also because some of these people are strangers. It’s also not as nerve racking since it’s not in-person. Just focus on getting to know the person, and be confident that you look amazing!
