Wardrobe consultation

I asked The Roommate and Jake for help with a Rock Star Date #2 outfit. Here are some excerpts:

The Roommate: I think you should go with hot pants and a crash helmet. Maybe some clogs.

Me: No, he'd never let me go home without a snog if I showed up in that.

The Roommate: Didn't you have some fringed shawl thing you wore once tied on your hip? That was hot.

Me: The sheer black one? You really thought that was hot?

The Roommate: I did. And big earrings, because you look good in them.

Me: Shawl thing only works with jeans, and I wore jeans on the first date.

The Roommate: Oh, scratch that. Have any miniskirts? Dudes love miniskirts. With tights and the suede boots.

Me: You don't think the mini with the suede boots would be too much? Like "fuck me now" too much? The boots have a serious heel.

The Roommate: They do? Oh, no then. Too bad you don't have the red boots in brown or black.

Me: I definitely don't want to look slutty.

The Roommate: No. But you DO want to look sassy.

Jake: It's dinner in the LES -- cords, boots, and tits are the order of the day.
