All around the country, COVID-19 precautions are starting to lift. The prominence of the vaccine has made it possible to go on summer first-dates again. 

However, what will you wear on your first date back on the scene? 

If you're planning on going on some dates, this summer, it's important to have some first-date outfit ideas. If you're looking for summer date night outfits, you've come to the right place. This article will walk you through a few summer date outfits, to make sure you make a great first impression. 

1. Cool and Collected

The first great way to stay fashionable during a summer date is to rely on summer-specific accessories. Spruce up any outfit your own with a nice sun hat, sunglasses, and sandals to make sure your summer look shines.

The beauty of the summer is that these unique accessories can make any outfit look great. Consider wearing cut-off jeans to make the sandals stick out, a sun hat as a nice contrast to a low-cut tank top, and sunglasses to make any casual outfit look not thrown-together, but purposefully shabby.

2. Summer Nights

Not every part of the summer is spent in the sweltering heat. If your date is for the evening during late summer, you might find yourself getting a little chilly wearing typical summer attire.

The trick for these cool summer nights is to wear something that feels appropriate for fall weather while also giving off a "summer" feel. Consider wearing ripped blue jeans and a white shirt, with a leather jacket. Or, go in black jeans and a white shirt, with a denim jacket. 

This look works wonderfully with some sunglasses, which will make you look like the perfect summer rebel.

3. A Little More Formal

Not every summer date is casual, however. While it's true that a fancy dinner might not be the best idea for a first date, it might be your only option — especially if you're going on a double date with a friend. 

To make your summer more formal, without going too overboard, buy yourself a great summer dress. Consider a nice, bright, patterned dress that you can wear for all occasions. 

The wonderful thing about a sundress is that you can wear it for formal occasions, or just wear it casually. They're a comfortable option that depends on the context to define it. 

Come Up With First-Date Outfit Ideas 

While we can help you to a certain degree, the trick with first-date outfit ideas is to take a scientific approach. Mix and match different cute summer date outfits to find the perfect summer evening date outfit. 

If you need to, you can ask a friend and see what's worked for them. Make sure you keep up on summer fashion 2021. Other than that, make sure you consider accessories, outfits for cool nights, and the occasional formal date. 

Consider pairing your sundress with some open-toed heels, for the perfect summer look.
