A romper is a fun combination of a dress and shorts without the worry of potentially flashing your date when you bowl. Opt for fabrics like jersey or silk, which are comfortable and date-night appropriate. A solid-colored romper in basic black is classic, while cobalt blue adds color. Look for interesting details like a ruffled or beaded neckline and highlight your waist with a thin leather belt. Accessorize with a bold cuff and sequined flats for a flirty look that can take you from the bowling lanes to a late-night dinner.

A pair of black or dark wash skinny jeans with minimal distressing is a versatile option that can easily be dressed up for a bowling date. Pair skinny jeans with easy layers like a basic V-neck T-shirt and a leather jacket. Black or brown leather motorcycle options with minimal hardware add edge, while colored leather is unexpected and injects personality into the look. Wrap a thin scarf loosely around your neck and accessorize with an oversize watch. Balance the edginess of the look with laid-back loafers embellished with small studs or rhinestones.

Leggings are a basic foundation that can be paired with easy separates for a cute bowling date outfit. Black leggings are the most flattering so experiment with bright colors and prints on top to dress up the leisurely vibe. A fun tribal print or a flirty floral print on a loose tunic creates visual interest and balances the slim fit of your leggings. For definition, wrap a thin belt around your waist and layer a boyfriend cardigan over your tunic. Accessorize with a chunky necklace or oversize stud earrings. Visually elongate legs with black riding boots.

A dress can work for a bowling date, but stick with a hem that is not too short and layer with tights for coverage. Leave the little black dress at home and keep it casual with a sweater dress or shirt dress. A solid-hued sweater dress adds texture for a subtle and stylish ensemble when worn with neutral tights in black or gray. A shirt dress is another option that complements tights for a casual and comfortable date look. For those who prefer a statement-making look, opt for separates in similar shades, such as sheer gray tights with a charcoal sweater dress or shirt dress. Add chandelier earrings and ground the look with heeled ankle booties.
