What to Wear Now: The Boyfriend’s Parent’s House for Dinner

The decision of what to wear at the boyfriend’s parent’s house for dinner is always a stressful one. The funny part is that you really only have to worry about his mother. I mean, you have breasts and legs right? Well then, in the eyes of the dad, you’re as good as gold.

As for his mother, ladies, calm down - I mean, no matter what you wear, Mrs. Russell is still likely to call you a “no good, gold-digging hussy”. That said, even if she will, you don’t want to give her justification to call you a slut. So, the number one rule is to keep it toned-down. Boring? No. Opt for a pair of full, high-waisted trousers from Zara (www.zara.com). Theses say practical, conservative, and un-prissy - all of which mom will like. Keep the top simple and don’t go overboard on the jewelry. Doing so will incite thoughts of a spoiled, high-maintenance, little princess in her head, which we definitely don’t want her to share with your boyfriend. Finally, throw on some gorgeous (brown, please!) Prada shoes (www.saks.com) and a GF leopard print tote (www.designerhandbagworld.com) to show you have a bit of personality!

So, I have given you the tools to succeed. But remember, getting dressed is only half the battle - Goodluck!
