When you’re getting ready for your date with that special guy, do you wear what makes you feel attractive or something that you know he likes on you? If you’re wearing something that you think he likes, it may be a good idea to check if he actually likes it first. Chances are he only says he likes it on you because you like it. Think about that hideous T-shirt your guy likes to wear, you told him it looks great on him but inside you’re wishing that the laundry monster eats it one day. Same goes with your guy and what you’re wearing.

According to the guys I talked to, here are some of the biggest offenders:

• Platform heels-That means your wedges! I know they’re in style right now and you love those extra inches, but some guys aren’t really into them. Embrace your petite size; it’s much sexier than trying to balance on those things.
• Lots of jewelry- Dangling earrings, three necklaces, six bracelets, four rings…sound like you? According to some guys, this makes you look like a Christmas tree. Avoid excess décor and stick to just one area instead. If you have a lot of jewelry that you really love, rotate it!
• Loads of makeup- I know you’ve all heard this one before. Men prefer a fresh face over a made up face. Let your natural beauty shine; otherwise, they’re in for a big surprise one day.
• Bermuda shorts- It’s summer time and these are a classic. I totally get it and even own a pair, but surprisingly, not many guys like them. Unless, however, they’re paired with stilettos. You get to wear your breezy shorts and still look sexy. Besides, heels always make our legs look amazing!
• Chipped nail polish- You may not think your guy notices your nails, but it’s actually one of the things they look at the most. Guys like to see that you take care of yourself, including your nails. So head to your manicurist and make them beautiful. (OK, maybe they don’t say they like your chipped nail polish, but they really don’t like the disheveled look.)
• Acrylic nails- This goes back to the natural look. You don’t want to end up like Will Smith’s date in an early episode of the “Fresh Prince” (she ends up removing her hair piece, color contacts, and press-on nails). Let your nails grow out, coat them with a clear or light shade of nail polish, and you’re all set.

Next time you go out shopping with your guy, ask him what he likes. I’m sure he’d be more than happy to let you know what he truly loves on you. Your guy is sure to appreciate being taken into account.
