jeans and a t shirt.
dont try to impress them just be yourself.
if you try to impress them then theyll expect you to be that way everytime you see them and youll never show who you really are.
but do be polite. use please and thankyou.
lol

YOU DON'T WANT YOUR BOYFRIEND'S PARENTS TO THINK YOU'RE A PRUDE??? I don't know what kind of family he comes from but last time I checked a guy's parents don't want to think he's dating a slut. Look classy and be polite. Goodness.

Wear something nice- maybe a nice shirt or blouse, black or khaki pants, and a low pair of heels. Put your hair in a messy bun or curled and wear a pair of nice earrings. I'm sure they'd prefer a prude over a slut, lol.

Compliment the mom on her outfit, jewelry, or something in her home.

Ask the dad sincere questions- what his job is, what his opinions are on a current event. Dads can tell when you're being fake, so no phony compliments or fake laughs.

Smile, act polite. Shake hands with the dad, follow what the mom does for greeting. Be prepared to answer strange questions. Don't do anything more than holding hands with your guy (even that's pushing it).

Just be on your best behavior, act like a "good, nice girl" and they'll like you.

Just wear something cute + simple. Or something that matches your personality. Just be and dress like yourself I guess.

Lets see. I'm really casual, but I still like looking nice. If it was me, I'd probably just wear some jeans, my white Roxy shoes [ or flip flops ], & a polo. And curl my hair out. I don't know if I'm helping you at all or not, lol. We probably have different styles...

Anyways, just dress in something you like, something that looks nice & something appropriate.

Aw, this can actually be fun! I don't think parents would mind if their son's future/current girlfriend was "prude." Infact, I'm sure they'd be more comfortable to see a conservative, classy young lady. You can start off in your wardrobe: don't wear anything too revealing, tight, or offending. Wear something reserved, but something within your style. When you meet them, smile, speak up & tell them "It's nice to meet you Mr. & Mrs. ___." Be respectful & polite & be sure to carry on a convesation. If you are unsure of what to say, you can ask a question or make a compliment. Have confidence when you speark; don't be too shy, but don't be obnoxious. When you leave, thank them for having you over. & most importantly, just be yourself. It's not as bad as you think. You'll do perfectly fine! Good luck! :)

Gabrielle: Hun, Hun, Hun! DON'T WEAR A SKIRT, LONG OR SHORT!! I had to point that out right away! That means you are showing off to them. It depends what you are doing. If your going out, wear black pants and a floral or striped shirt. If you are staying in, wear khaki( tan ) pants and a black or brown solid color shirt, and for shoes, if your going out, wear heels that aren't too high. Staying in, wear high heels that you can be comfortable in, only if you are sitting or lounging. Make sure you bring an extra pair of shoes for any surprises. And now for your hair, put it up into a bun, rock some twists, or just keep it out if you have the right hair. Make-up is easy be neutral, A light pink lipstick with a shade of clear gloss ontop and a nice light color eyeshadow to match your top.

Danielle: Kimono Sleeved Top and a Knipped Waist. Kimono Style tops are most flattering when they're fitted in the middle. Just add accesories in all the right places like a braclet with a ribbon ties the look together. Perfect for this kind of date. This top can be paired with leggings, or tight fitting jeans. Spice it up with a pair of really hot heels and put your hair up in a bun with two chopsticks. All you need is the perfect shade of lipgloss and you are good to go. Make sure to pair this outfit up with a pair of super cute earrings and a beaded clutch.

mwalnutss answered Saturday February 17 2007, 2:07 pm:
hi! i personally would wear like a polo or a button up shirt with jeans and like clogs or sneakers. unless like the guy says to wear something a little more fancy, then go with like cordoroys(sp?!) or a kind of pants that arent jeans. but i would stay away from skirts, dresses, things with leggins, and low cut tee shirts. hope i helped.

xY0M0MMAx answered Saturday February 17 2007, 1:14 pm:
well, don't wear any shirts extremely low cut or that show your stomach.
don't wear really, really short shorts.
as for jeans, don't wear ones that are very, very, very low.

don't over do it though.
like don't wear a skirt or a dress or anything.

put on maybe a plain, solid colored shirt that's not too low with some nice jeans.
then just wear maybe a nice necklace or bracelet with it.

oh & be polite -- like say yes ma'am, no ma'am, yes sir, no sir. =]

good luck!

Wear clothes that aren't revealing...no midriff or cleavage and something that's comfortable for you as well. Don't dress up too much, just wear something casual. I wish you the best of luck!
