My FW writing assignment...

Last night, i finally forced myself to complete the FW Tutorial 6, she said before monday right? It seems like 800 words isn't enough, could have written more. Maybe it's just because i'm too long winded. I emphasise on every part. Geez..hmm, i supposed this article would be suitable for something like Seventeen or CLEO...

But my advice is very general, it's like things which every normal person would know, ooh, but this article is for "first dates". How ironic, asking me to write one, providing expertise advise when i myself hasn't gone through a real proper one. Geez..Anyway, it's just for viewing pleasure, so dont take what i mentioned that seriuosly, and those experts' qoutes were from me too..haha...expert..geez..

Here goes...

How to impress and/or attract the attention of him on your first date

Scavenging through your wardrobe for an appropriate outfit for your first date with this new guy? Tired of those miserable clothes? Worried of how he would think of you?

Fear not. Here’s some advice from the experts.

You pull open your wardrobe and just cannot find any suitable clothes. All the clothes in there just do not seem right! That’s it, go on a shopping spree and indulge yourself in the enjoyment of shopping and get yourself all nice and proper for the date!

Not only will you feel refreshed, the confidence in you would automatically disperse and you will bloom like the prettiest rose, and he will be so proud to be having you around him. Who knows you might even be talent scouted?

How you smell is certainly important. You would not want to smell like a fish nor smell as though you just came out of the zoo. What’s more, body odour! That is certainly a “No-no”, especially on a first date. What a turn-off!

Not to worry if you have body odour, a deodorant will definitely do the trick. Spray those spray-can deodorants all around your body, especially the specific areas like your armpit. Remember to buy a good deodorant, one that would cover up all undesirable smells and would last for the whole day. Imagine smelling like a rose in the day and turning into a fish in the night. What?
“Laser treatment to remove pubic hair and body odour is highly recommended. You pay for once to get rid of your troubles for a lifetime! How expensive could it get?” Ms. Ang Hwee Ling, a beauty consultant from Marie France Bodyline expressed.
After smelling as sweet as a candy, it’s time to doll yourself up!

Let’s start with your make-up.
Ms. Fanny Ang, senior beauty consultant for Biotherm advised young girls to use summer colour tones like apple green, candy floss pink, and soft fluffy yellow for their eyeshades. However, if you are within the late 20s range, you might want to look a bit more matured.
“Apple green can also be used here, light blue is a must-have, and dark brown will make you look so seductive the guy might faint!” Fanny said.

“What’s most important of your make-up is to make sure your face look pimple-free. Right, I emphasised on the word ‘look’. You might have pimples popping all around and you can’t get them off in time. What do you do? Hide them. Use concealers or facial corrective pens, they will cover up the pimples and stuff so perfectly that it would make your skin look flawless.” She added.

Moving on to your clothes, what more do we have to say? Wear the right clothes for the right occasion; ask him for a detailed dress code if you wish for him to keep the schedule of the date a surprise. You do not want to wear your bikini and shorts to a high class restaurant, do you?

Simplicity is a virtue, do not dress up like a Christmas tree. Make your dress code simple and elegant yet enough to make him drool.
If you were to go to the beach, wear a sundress. Mesmerise everyone with what your assets. Remember to bring extra clothes and wear your nicest bikini or swimsuit underneath the sundress. This way, what you just have to do is take off your sundress and enjoy the soothing waters. When you have had enough of the water, simply wait for your swimsuit to dry and wear your sundress over again to save the hassle.

If your date is bringing you to a posh restaurant, preferably wear a gown. If you are afraid you might splash stuff on yourself or not dress in the suitable colour to match your date’s outfit, choose the multi-purpose black. Black is such a versatile colour that you would never go wrong.

When your appearance is near perfection, etiquette is the next important thing you would want to take note. Appearance is not everything, when he gets to know you, how you behave is extremely important. No guys would want their ladies to get whiny and act like some country bumpkin in the city or make a big fuss out of a molehill.

Social etiquette expert Mrs Winnie Fong, 41, advised that if ladies feel they need some tips on how they should behave, they should take up some etiquette classes which are available almost everywhere, in clubs, societies, and community centres. Not having time is absolutely not an excuse to be excused.

“If time doesn’t allow a full-length etiquette course, you can also take up our express etiquette class. Worst comes to worst, you can try reading up a book on this area, it should also help you to a certain extent.” Mrs Fong added.

Last of all, plan your time accurately, and give yourself amble time. It is best to give yourself time to relax after you have done all the preparations or leave some time in case something crops up. You would not want to appear like a crazy woman frantically rushing to a first date.

With all these factors taken care off, remember to smile and act according to circumstances. Good luck!
