Meet The Parents: 3 Foolproof Ways To Dress To Impress
Imagine this: You're visiting your man's parents for the first time, and you lose your neurotic soon-to-be father-in-law's prized pet cat — oh, wait. Maybe we saw that in a movie once…. But it doesn't sound fun does it? And, while we can't help you avoid an embarrassing Meet The Parents mishap, we can help you circumnavigate an embarrassing wardrobe disaster. Because before you blow your future family away with your sharp wit and simply shining personality, you've got to dress to impress and get their attention.
Since we know a thing or two about winning over Mom and Dad (and, you know, good style), we've put together three parent-perfect outfits guaranteed to show off your best assets without raising eyebrows. Whether you're meeting 'em for a casual weekend brunch, hitting the town at an oh-so-glamorous resto à quatre, or (gulp!) joining the fam for Thanksgiving dinner, our foolproof guide has you covered. So, while you may not end up feeling like the daughter they never had, at least you'll look damn good trying.
Brunch
For a daytime meal, you'll want to keep things casual but still pulled together. A nice sweater and an It bag will show that you put some thought into your ensemble, but laid-back cords give off that low-maintenance vibe.
