" Sometimes my friends tease me for dressing a little too conservatively. In the fall and winter, my classic style doesn&amp;#039;t seem out of place, but as the weather starts to warm up, I start to feel a little left out. My friends&amp;#039; skirts get shorter and shorter, but not mine! I like my style, but I admit it doesn&amp;#039;t get me noticed by guys\u2014which is becoming more and more apparent now that I&amp;#039;m single.  To push myself to go outside my comfort zone, I dragged my mom to the mall and instructed her not to hand me anything that she would feel comfortable wearing. A few miniskirts and many sequins later, my closet is more equipped with party outfits. St. Patrick&amp;#039;s Day weekend was a great time to debut my new mini skirt. I definitely got a lot of attention in it, but instead of feeling confident, I felt self-conscious. I was worried guys were just talking to me because they thought I would be willing to makeout with them. Suddenly, I missed my covered-up style! I want to be noticed by guys, but not if it means dressing scandalously. Wondering if that&amp;#039;s the only way to get noticed, I asked two of my guy friends what they thought. Both said the number one thing they look for in a girl is confidence, and no matter what a girl is wearing, they can tell if she feels comfortable. For some girls, that means flaunting what they&amp;#039;ve got! As for me, I&amp;#039;m going to stick to my khaki trench dresses and hope that my personality speaks for itself. If I wear my gold mini, I&amp;#039;ll do it because I want to, not because guys like it.  Isabelle :) Isabelle blogs for Seventeen about dating every Thursday.
