Dress Monday

#DressMonday

I don’t know about you but I wake up on Monday and know that I’ll be at my desk putting out fires and then at some point having to put my “man pants on and be the “CEO”.

Many of us work in masculine industries or the gender-neutral tech space, where it’s easy to forget about being a girl. Whether we choose to or not we have to “wear the pants” – but we don’t have to wear pants while doing it?

Ladies, it’s time to reclaim our femininity with #DressMonday.

Wouldn’t you like to start every week feeling pretty and polished?

Dress for the Date is launching #DressMonday so that us girls can feel like girls again.

Every week, if you are like me you’re navigating through a man’s world .You battle illnesses, survive breakups, help friends move and kill bugs in the kitchen and send out way too many emails with the header saying “Following up”.

You handle life’s struggles with a woman’s strength. But all too often, instead of feeling powerful and feminine, you feel… Flat. Exhausted. Worn out.

Dress for the Date is creating #DressMonday as a new antidote for you to feel like a woman again in today’s fast past modern world.

It’s simple. Wear a dress on Monday.

Start the week off in a pretty dress that makes you feel good about yourself – and makes you feel like a woman. Whether your style is flouncy and full or sleek and sophisticated, wearing a dress on Monday is a positive way to begin the week, #DressMonday may feel so good that wearing a dress even spills over into Tuesday and Wednesday.

Let’s do this! Tell your friends about the idea, and post your pics on Instagram, Pinterest and Twitter with the hashtag #DressMonday. Oh yea, and fellas, you can wear a dress too and join in the celebration of femininity.

To be feminine is to be powerful and strong – we all know this. Being a woman is something to take pride in, and to showcase to the world. You can start each week with #DressMonday!

DressfortheDate.com Offers Fashion Advice for Dating Success

Dress for the Date


“People eat with their eyes first, and first impressions on a date are really important.” Founder and CEO of BadOnlineDates.com Jennifer Kelton offers intimate, one-on-one fashion consultation through a new dating and fashion service website, DressfortheDate.com, to help daters make great first impressions.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) April 30, 2013

The right outfit can help daters make a great first impression and get a second date. That’s the premise behind a new online fashion service for daters: DressfortheDate.com (DFTD). The site is the brainchild of Jennifer Kelton, author and founder of the famous pioneering website BadOnlineDates.com. In an effort to help daters feel and act confident while avoiding becoming a subject for Bad Online Dates, the site helps both men and women project the image they want and walk out the door feeling secure in their individuality.

“I’m like your best girlfriend who goes shopping with you in person and, through tech, into your closet to get what you need to look your best. I don’t mind saying I’ve been told I have great taste,” Kelton laughs.

Kelton created the fashion-service-for-daters website when she realized many daters weren’t heading out the door to dates with their best foot forward. “People eat with their eyes first, and first impressions really are important,” Kelton explains.

A New York University study shows first impressions are formed in the first seven seconds of a meeting, and appearance is a large part of that impression. DressfortheDate.com operates on the idea that daters don’t need to shoulder the massive responsibility themselves, and can defer the artistic aspect of getting gussied up to a practiced professional. Kelton said her inspiration goes back to art school and high-school home economics in the 80’s.

“I think we always feel better when we wear something that looks smashing,” said Kelton. She admits to scheduling her own Dress Mondays, just to feel the power of “putting on the ‘DRESS’ to feel like a woman looking good. Not only does dressing well help you nail that first impression, but it will make you feel confident and well prepared for a night on the town.”

The new service is a fitting companion to Kelton’s popular five-year-old dating site that soothes the wounded sensibilities of people who have had bad dates: BadOnlineDates.com. Kelton also is known as author of the book, Don’t Use my Sweater like a Towel, a book about dating. Providing dating fashion advice through Dress for the Date is her way of turning to a new page of dating that now includes her fashion passion to help others through fashion and dating dilemmas.

“I reached a milestone in my own life last year and decided it was time for me to focus on what I love best,” Kelton explains, “and that has always been fashion and helping others.” Because of her expertise in dating through BadOnlineDates.com, she said she is asked daily for dating fashion advice.

DressfortheDate.com services don’t give customers a major makeover as other sites and services do. As theDressfortheDate.com “About” page says, “We’re not out to change you. We’re out to express you. If you are a dater, you likely will want to retain your own sense of style and personality, but there are ways to bring it together for a sharper-dressed version of you.”

With prices starting as low as $20, practically anyone can receive good dating fashion advice and have money left over for a date somewhere nice. The online or in-person advice sessions focus on creating outfits and/or wardrobes to fit any dater’s budget. Consultation categories include:

The Hand-Hold: 30-minute live online consultation using Skype, Google Hangouts or FaceTime
The First Kiss: 60-minute live online consultation using Skype, Google Hangouts or FaceTime
The Touch: 2-hour in-person consultation and shopping trip with Kelton
The Hug: 4-hour in-person consultation and shopping trip with Kelton
The All-Nighter: 4-hour in-person consultation and shopping trip with Kelton, plus a one-hour happy hour to discuss dating strategies and additional fashion advice
The Ultimate Date: 5-hour consultation including a shopping trip, happy hour and one-hour follow-up video call

The site also offers a blog with pages of free advice about dressing for dates. Currently, in-person dating fashion advice is only available from Kelton in the Los Angeles, California, area. However, Kelton plans to take the advising service nationwide by hiring stylists from coast to coast over the next few months.

About Jennifer Kelton

Jennifer KeltonI did not wake up one morning and say “hey I think I’d like a man use my sweater like a towel, write a candid dating book, become a dating expert, the CEO and founder of a social dating site and have three blogs.”

All of this has happened in a slow burn and here I am. The good, the bad, the mistakes, way too many tears shed to count, lots of wine and oh my goodness a huge learning curve that leaves me much of the time saying, “I’m sorry but this is all new to me.”
