Wear whatever makes you feel beautiful.
It’s not about a look – it’s about wearing
whatever will help you approach dating with
a ‘dating energy’.
ENERGY
The energy on a date is playful, fun, flirty
and electric!
When you go out, you can have a meal
together – but you might not even talk to
each other at all. Strangers observing you
wouldn’t even know you’re a couple!
Dating is completely different than that!
DRESS
Start out by going back to the energy you
brought to it when you first started dating
your partner – but up-level it!
There’s so much more depth to the
relationship you have today! You’re so much
more developed, and authentic, and juicy
as the woman you are today! Bring THAT
version of yourself to your dating.
I tell my students all the time that you do not
go out on a date in the same clothes that
you would wear to take your kids to their
soccer game or to the grocery store! Yoga
pants, messy bun, and a stained shirt are
not dating attire! Get yourself into state before your date! Put
on some fun music while getting ready, and
get back to that fun, flirty and playful YOU!
There’s such a difference in what I wear out
on a date with my husband Paul, that when
my daughter was young, she’d see me and
say, “Mommy, that outfit is not ‘appropriated’
for you!” Ha ha! Here’s the Golden Rule of Dating
Conversation: No Kids, No Biz, No House!
I would tell her, “I’m going out with my
husband, sweetie. It’s not Mom time, it’s
wife time.” And she’d say, “OH! Ok.” Seriously.
Now, I’m not saying that super sexy clothes
have to be your flavor of feminine energy –
everyone has a different flavor. Think back
to how you dressed when you were first
dating…and then dress even better than that!
The important thing is to have fun with it.

TALK
That’s right, you cannot talk about the kids,
work/business or the house on your date!
I can hear you now, “Stacey, what the hell
are we going to talk about?”
Haha! No worries, I’ve got you covered!
Go to Amazon.com and type in “Table Topics
for Couples.”
Keep them in your dating purse (that’s not
a diaper bag!) Then, when you are out on
