Wow, skirts? Bra's? Speaking of comfort zones, I'm waaaaaaay out of mine.
You should just try dressing like yourself and being yourself, and if he doesn't like that, fuck him (not literally) You don't need to change for anyone, especially someone that gives you a business card.
In my neighborhood
(which I think is also the neighborhood of the person I asked out)
guys like girls who would rather go to the neighborhood pub, don't they?
Most if not all of the guys I know are like that. Sometimes its nice to go just a tiny bit more upscale (but definitely not swanky) for the first couple of dates. The Silvertone is good for that.

yeah you have no idea. when a girl gets a date with a new guy, the very first thing she does is buy new underwear. it's not necessarily just in case he ends up seeing it, it's that it sort of signifies to yourself that you're a girl, trying to get with a guy.

and yes I agree about being yourself
yeah it's more about ourselves...not like black lace and leather shit that hurts...it's about pretty and NICE underwear that are secret confidence boosters.

hmm I don't know about pencil skirts. I have a very round gut and a lot of curves. and I've always seen pencil skirts as very business-like. It's not very "me." Plus, don't they say on What Not to Wear that chunky women should wear things that flow away from the body?
Chunky? like how chunky ( you can PM me if you aren't comfy with this topic)
I don't think that What Not to Wear is a very good source. they want every plus woman to wear drapey stuff...that totally dates you and says "HI! I think I am fat!"
I like pencil skirts because if you have hips they make them go POW...and I have a butt too! (well normally I do)
you can wear them with a shirt and cardigan for a crisp look...or with a shell/cardigan...always go wtih a thin cardigan tho - so you don't add bulk

It's downtown, at the end of Franklin, before Tremont. Good place.
Definitely won't stick to the floor in there- and I'm pretty sure the girls who hang there won't try to STEAL YOUR dude!! WTF is up with that?? My God!!

I meant not the leather stuff...not til later. HAHAHAA
I don't know what your size is but I am in LOVE with cacique bras!! (you can get them at Lane Bryant) my normal size is 38 DD and I think they go as small as 36 C...but I am not sure...they sell plus size bras.
also, Victoria Secret doesn't have such good bras, generally they are for women that need filler.
there is another company that I like but I can't remember the name...

I tend to agree with that. for example, they always tell the chunkier women to wear empire tops. I look HUGE in those things-sure it covers the stomach, but it makes me look 10 feet wide!

oh I have a smaller chest. I'm like a 38B or maybe now I could possibly wear a small C but generally 38B. I don't need "filler" but I need shape. I'm pear/apple shaped- Huge ass, huge hips, enormous thunder thighs, stomach like a pregnant woman (round, not flabby), tiny boobs.

okay they have that size - I have seen it.
also no offense, but you might need filler. to give some shape back UP from your bottom portion...and you said earlier about the empire tops - see -its like hiding something in a swing coat...no foolin anyone.
besides, it's all you - so wear it out!
how tall are you? because this would tell me if you should heel it up a bit. thicker square heels so it doesn't look like a top is balancing on pins.
and try capri pants that are a little fitted, with a shirt that maybe has a bit of stretch in it so that (if wearing the right bra) it can cling to your good bits..a little low in the front so that you can wear a necklace piece or something. and skirts with a little flair gives a pretty good impression - of confidence - not like - henrietta hippo skirts...something that has a feminine hem...maybe lettuce?
try Soma bras too!

lettuce???
lol: henrietta hippo skirts. I have a few of those- couldn't help it, it was all the gap was selling this year and the gap is the only place I fit! (too small for plus sizes, too big for most other normal sizes).
yeah I usually wear padded bras, but not like, miracle bras.
I'm pretty damn short. A little over 5'3". and my legs are really disproportionately short. I'm not a huge fan of capris- they have to be just right or I look like a soccer mom. I'm better with bermuda shorts (the straight leg minimizes my enormousness). and I NEED pockets on my ass. If I wear heels though, they have to be REALLY casual, or else you look like you're trying way too hard.

pockets on the ass? hmmn, fitted capris in light wool look good (I wasn't talking about chino pants.)
you need heels - but if you get some that are not pumps, and have nice square heels you should be fine - trying to hard only applies if you can't walk in the shoes. the best way to make sure this doesn't happen is to walk around at home in the heels until you are confident. nothing like tottering to offset the image you are trying to project (and thus become)

don't chunky heals make your legs look fatter?
light wool...kind warm and business-like? I also can only wear lower-cut pants. I look like a giant exercise ball in anything with a high rise (which is one reason among many I don't shop in the plus shops).
Oh man, this thread has gone from worse to worse ....
'I want to hurry home to you
put on a slow, dumb show for you
and crack you up

by the way - strappy only works in a shoe if you can walk in them...i am serious...nothing pisses me off worse than a girl in strappy shoes teetering like a newborn.

hmm. I see what you mean about the "square" heel now. yeah that second shoe wouldn't work at all. I'm kind of a very casual person though- I don't like looking like I'm going to a business meeting in my free time. what's wrong with cute sandals and/or wedges? they are more casual.

right, but you need to have at least one really good business, no nonsense shoe.
sandals YES, wedges NO. not for your legs (as you described)
they have some really good sandals with a strappy sense but a square heel... go with that. minimize the image of a tottering chick.

only like a knockoff because those are 500 bucks.
see the heel? it is thick and easier to walk on...but not CHUNKY...
see how it would be high enough to give your legs a muscle boost?
this shoe wouldn't work for you because it MAY be too thick - and that would lose the definition from your ankles which you would get from the height

I really like shoes...oh the power of a good stiletto! the awe induction of a well placed square heel!!!
aaaaahhh shoes.
and bras...they are a weakness
we're talking about what to wear on a date which follows naturally from how to get a date.

see: http://www.solestruck.com/donald-j-pliner-gisa-brown-brown-kogi-sport-suede/index.html
there are exceptions to every rule - and a wedge is okay if you have the heel go in and not out...so that it doesn't look like you have corkboard on your feet...instead it has a side contour...
see: http://www.solestruck.com/chinese-laundry-kiss-me-brandy/index.html
oh my sandal wedges don't look like that. the are wooden on the bottom, not cork, and they aren't platform and have a much smaller heel.
I agree with the 2nd part.;)
If I had to think this much about EVERY little fucking detail of my life ... so would I
I do agree though the conversation is fascinating. These threads are like train wrecks... LOL
