100 Sweaters To Avoid On First Date
By Laura Milligan of The Love Coach
Deciding what to wear on your first date is tough. Especially if your first date falls during the colder months. We’re here to help you resist the temptation to pull on some pilly, hole-y, stinky holiday sweater by showing you just how horrible you might look on your date. Read below for our list of 100 types of sweaters you should completely avoid wearing on your first date.
Top 10 Deal Breakers
If your sweater meets any of the following qualifications, it’s the wrong choice.
Anything that sheds: If you’re leaving behind bits of pistachio-colored wool or mohair behind you, no one’s going to want to risk kissing or even hugging you goodnight.
A stinky sweater: Sometimes we wear our sweaters more than once without washing or dry cleaning them, but if it’s a first date, always wear a clean–or at least Febreze’d–sweater.
Anything the moths have gotten to: If you find a hole under your armpit, don’t think that no one will notice. They will.
Anything that smells like mothballs: Keep your sweaters in airtight containers during the summer months. Mothballs will make your first date gag.
"Vintage": Vintage sweaters are cool but not for first dates. Especially if your idea of vintage is a triple hand-me-down from your great grandpa who loved to sleep in his sweater.
Stained sweaters: Wearing a stained sweater to your first date–no matter what kind of stain it is–makes you look disgusting and lazy.
Cashmere: Cashmere is soft and snuggly, but it’s also really hot and will probably make you sweat if you’re even the teensiest bit nervous.
Horizontal stripes: Girls who wear sweaters with horizontal stripes will just look chunky, so wear something more flattering.
Itchy sweaters: If you’re going to be itching and scratching and turning red during dinner, wear something underneath or pick a different sweater.
Incredibly expensive sweaters: You’ll be so nervous that you’ll end up spilling something on it, but you can’t make a big fuss because you won’t want to seem materialistic or rigid. Leave it at home.
