Dress Sharp: Style Tips to Impress a Cebuana

When you are dating a Cebuana, expect her to be low maintenance. For the most part, it’s true that it doesn’t take much to impress her. However, that doesn’t mean that you just shouldn’t put some effort into your first date. If you want to go with her for a second time, make sure to leave a lasting impression, and one way to do that is to dress right.

It would be unwise to dress in a full suit when you are out on a date. After all, Cebu weather is renowned for being humid. If you don a complete suit, you might just sweat for most of the night. When you are out with a Filipina, it’s better to dress comfortably yet stylishly. Fortunately, there’s plenty of stylish choices to choose from. If you are no expert at men’s clothing, here are some style tips you can follow:

• Invest in a good pair of jeans

  Not all jeans are made the same. With the right length and figure, you could be a fine and imposing figure. But before you pick any jeans off the rack, you have to be mindful of the style that’s right for you. If you don’t mind a pair that’s a little snug, you could go for either the slim fit or narrow fit jeans. However, if you have a thick set of legs, tapered fit and regular fit would do.

• Pick a cotton shirt

  Because of the humidity, it’s best to wear a cotton shirt. In fact, cotton is the most ideal fabric because it is breathable, heat resistant, and hypoallergenic (meaning it is safe for even the most sensitive skin type). Having said that, pick a shirt that fits nicely—not too snug nor too loose. A shirt that’s too tight would highlight parts of your body that should remain hidden while one that’s too loose would give her the impression that you didn’t put too much effort into your outfit.

• Choose the right kind of footwear

  Although you can get away with wearing flip flops on most occasions, keep them at home during your date and opt for sneakers or loafers instead. Again, you wouldn’t want to leave the impression that you aren’t even trying. Also, these types of shoes are perfect for Cebu weather because they aren’t too stuffy.

• Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize!

  Once you’ve picked the right outfit, the next step is to complete the look with the right accessory. A classic wrist watch would usually suffice, but you can also get creative depending on the date. For instance, if the date is outdoors, you can complete your outfit with a classy beret or military style cap.

With the right outfit, you can make a dashing entrance and capture her eye. Other dating tips you can follow include being open-minded, spontaneous, and courteous. There are plenty of other basic dating tips out there (including dating tips for shy guys). Regardless of which piece of advice you follow, just make sure to enjoy the date and her company.
