15 Summer Date Night Outfits For The Romantic In You

I know most say that winter is “cuffing” or relationship season, but summertime is definitely dating season. Dates become more frequent when you’re not worried about the cold or getting stuck in the snow. In order to help you prepare for this fun and important time, here’s a list of summer date night outfits that will have you excited to get your romance on.

1. Cut Out Black Dress:

Everyone loves a little black dress. You’ll definitely be able to find a romantic black dress that’ll fit your date night activities and your own personal style. A perfect way to bring in the warm summer season into your dress shopping is to pick a black dress with an interesting neckline. Either a cut-out or a plunging neckline would look great. Also, go for short sleeves and a shorter hemline if you want to show a little extra skin and combat those hot nights

2. Touch of Velvet:

Velvet is so soft and touchable, I can’t think of a better place to wear this kind of fabric than on a romantic date night. A single velvet piece with an otherwise all-black outfit would look amazing for a summer date. You could wear this look in the form of a blazer, top, skirt, or even shoes. So, despite being a soft fabric that many wear only in the cooler months, it’s versatile enough to be worn all year round.

3. Short Wrap Dress:

Wrap dresses are cute, flowy, and look great on all body types since you can kind of make the waistline look however you want it. What more could you ask for in a romantic date night outfit? Also, these dresses are usually light and airy making them perfect for summertime. A soft color like blush, lilac, or a light tan would be amazing for this style of dress.

4. Backless Blouse:

A backless blouse paired with dark jeans or a black mini skirt is definitely a look. Pair it with some choice jewelry and the perfect lip and you will look irresistible. This is a blouse that you could probably only wear on a summer date night so why not bust it out on your next one? Your date will surely appreciate it.

5. Sparkly Mini Skirt & Thigh High Boots:

Thigh-high boots are definitely the unofficial/official flirty date night shoe. It doesn’t matter the color or if they have a huge heel but just be sure to wear them for your next date. You could pair them perfectly with a cute sweater and skinny jeans but these boots were made to accompany a mini skirt. If you’re going to wear a mini skirt out on a romantic date night, why not make it a sparkly one that will be sure to catch your date’s eye?

6. Off the Shoulder Top & Skinny Jeans:

A perfect summer look for any occasion is an off the shoulder top paired with some skinny jeans. This look would also, of course, be perfect for a casual date night. Just because the date is casual doesn’t mean you can’t look completely adorable and ready for all of the romance. Pick a neutral-toned top and pair them with light wash jeans for the ultimate summertime look that will leave your date wanting to see more of you.

7. Two-Piece Velvet Set:

For a late-night date, definitely go for a soft velvet two-piece ensemble. This outfit would be perfect for a night in a restaurant, theater, or club where you and your date will be in close quarters. Believe me, this velvet fabric is so soft that your date is going to want to be touching you or dancing with you more than usual.

8. Flowy Red Mini Dress:

Red is known to be the color of romance. I feel like by now that fact is almost common knowledge. This means that for a romantic summer date night you should definitely choose to wear a flowy red mini dress. Not only will the fluidness of the fabric give you that romantic and irresistible feel, but you will never go wrong with the color.

9. Short White Dress:

For another classic summer look, go for a short white dress. You can wear cute white dresses for any occasion and at any point in the summer, which would make this dress a staple in your summer wardrobe. But it would also be perfect for a relaxed date night like dinner at your favorite restaurant or a stroll along the beach. Go for a dress that has a lacey look or crochet pattern to really embody the feeling of summertime date nights.

10. Black Top and Ripped Jeans:

Get ready to look a little edgy for your summer date night with a black top and ripped jeans. You will look relaxed, mysterious, and ready for a fun date night with this look. Pick a black off the shoulder top or a tank top in order to keep the heat from raining on your fun evening. Black tops always look great with anything so it doesn’t matter what kind of jeans you wear. They could be a dark wash, light wash, white denim, or even black for a monochromatic look. No matter what ripped jeans you wear, you’ll look great for your date.

11.  Long Pleated Skirt:

If you want a more soft and feminine look for your date night, then go for a pleated skirt. You can rock this look in any length, but it’s best in a midi length or ankle length. The great thing about this skirt is you could really dress it up if you and bae are going out to a fancy restaurant but it can also be dressed down a bit for a more relaxed date or a walk in the park. No matter what date you go on, you are sure to feel comfortable and relaxed in this flowy skirt.

12. Short Velvet Dress:

A velvet dress will always be a good idea for a date night no matter the time, date, or season. You could also pick a color that goes more with summertime like gold, orange, pink, or blush. Some tried and true colors are of course black, navy, red, and dark green. It doesn’t matter what color you wear so long as you feel great while wearing it.

13. Floral Jumpsuit:

For an effortless summertime date look, go for a jumpsuit in a floral print. You’ll look as glamorous as you would if you were wearing a floor-length dress, but you’ll also have the ease of pants. What could honestly better for any night let alone a romantic date night?

14.  Lace Top:

Summertime and lace go hand in hand. That’s also the case for date nights since lace is one of the original romantic fabrics. When in doubt, pair a cute lace top with light wash skinny jeans and a neutral crossbody or clutch. You’ll then be more than prepared for your romantic summer date night anywhere.

15. Flowy Maxi Dress:

Having a maxi dress in your closet is a summertime wardrobe staple and for good reason. Maxi dresses are versatile and having one in your closet can serve a whole variety of occasions including a romantic date night. Any kind of print or style would be perfect for a date night maxi dress but some great ones to always have in your closet are black, white, floral printed, red or blue. These colors can go with a lot of different accessories, seasons, and a whole lot of dates,
