Ask MG: “What Products Will Get My Skin Date Night Ready For Spring?

15 Apr, 2013 | Ask MG, Beauty Babe, Date Night Beauty

Dear Midtown Girl,

This winter has been awful for my skin & nails. After putting on bb cream & powder, my face still flakes. I want that glowy look (not shiny) so I can feel good when I’m out on a date. I get manicures often but my cuticles are a mess (I work in the medical field, so I wash my hands multiple times a day). What products can I use that will help me look fresh for spring?

First Date Style: “What’s A Cute Spring Date Outfit?”

8 Apr, 2013 | Ask MG, Date Night Outfits, Date Outfits

Dear Midtown Girl,

I’m working on getting my body back in shape after letting myself go during the winter months. I’m not far from my goal weight, so I want to start dating again. What kind of date clothing would be flattering while I’m losing weight? Since the weather is warmer, I can’t cover up in jackets/blazers anymore. What would look cute for a spring date?

Ask MG: We had a great first date, when will he ask me out again?

4 Feb, 2013 | Ask MG, Dating Advice, Dating Dilemmas

Dear Midtown Girl,

I had a great first date last week. We had dinner, cocktails & then he walked me back to my apartment. Our date lasted about 3 hours and conversation was so good. Literally we could talk for hours. When he walked me home, he gave me a hug (A HUG?) and then told me to have a great weekend. What does this mean? I haven’t heard from him since. Should I text him? How long does it take for a guy to ask for a second date?

Ask MG: “I’m Moving To New York, What Clothes Do I Need?”

28 Jan, 2013 | Ask MG, City Girl Essentials, NYC Style

Dear Midtown Girl,

I’m moving to New York City! I’ve been a west coast girl forever, but recently I was offered a position in Manhattan that I just couldn’t pass up. So now I actually have to buy a WINTER COAT (what kind?). Plus, most of my wardrobe consists of high end basics, skinny jeans and boots (pretty much west coast casual). But I want to update my wardrobe to be New York fabulous, what clothes do I need?

Ask MG: “How Do I Know If My Boyfriend Is Cheating?”

21 Jan, 2013 | Ask MG, Dating Advice, Dating Dilemmas

Dear Midtown Girl,

I’ve wanted to email you for a while and decided to do it now because I need your help. I’ve been with my boyfriend for 6 years and things are not going well. The last few months have been tough, it’s like I’m living with a roommate. Lately he takes forever to answer my texts/calls and he started to hang out with his friends more. I asked him if there was someone else in the picture and he said no. We went to a family wedding last weekend and he barely spoke to me but was on his phone the whole time. On top of that, he was wearing a new suit which I didn’t even know he bought (he hates shopping). Are these signs that he could be seeing someone else? How do I know if he’s cheating on me?

Ask MG: “My Friend Flirts With My Boyfriend. What Should I Do…?”

15 Jan, 2013 | Ask MG, Dating Dilemmas

Dear MG,

I’ve been friends with this girl for a few years. We aren’t exactly best friends, but we hang out a lot and I share personal stories with her. She’s very sweet but every time she’s around my boyfriend & I, she gets really friendly with him. Especially if she’s had a few drinks, she starts getting very flirtatious with him, saying ridiculous things like “if you were single, I would grab you in a second” and to me “you’re so lucky to have found such a cute guy, let me know if you guys ever break up”. I’m not the insecure or jealous type, but the last time all of us got together (with other friends too), she grabbed his hand and started dancing with him. What should I do or say to make her stop without looking like I’m jealous (which I’m not)?

Ask MG: “Is it ok to text a guy after a first date?”

8 Jan, 2013 | Ask MG, Dating Advice, Dating Dilemmas

Dear Midtown Girl,

I had a first date this weekend that I thought had gone really well. Our date started with cocktails & tapas in Tribeca and ended with a walk around Madison Park. I had such a good time that after he dropped me off at my apartment, I waited a few minutes and texted him “Had such a nice time tonight. Get home safe.” He responded almost 30 minutes later with “Me too. Thanks”. I saw him Sunday afternoon and haven’t heard from him since (I know it’s only been 1 day but still..). What’s the deal with his text? Should I have not texted him first??
