Dress Up Games: One Day Dare


Looking for a way to keep your sanity through another round of summer school? Why not play a bit of truth or dare, only without the truth or the slumber party. This version of a daring game can only be done if both people are ready and willing to give their fashion sense a run for its money and feel a surge in their creativity. The one day dare is tough; there is no doubt about it.

The One Day Dare
In this dress up game, you and a partner agree to play together for the day or you can play as a group if everyone picks a name. You can only dare one person at a time. Then you’ll need to head to a local thrift store or your own closet. If you can sneak into your mom or dad’s closet, that will make the game great fun, too.

Your goal is to find a single item of clothing or an accessory that is so horrible it looks like something that might be oddly fashionable. For example, a vest your mother wore twenty years ago might seem like something almost stylish again – but it’s so obviously not.

Bring that item to your friend the night before the dare. She has the rest of the evening to use that item in an outfit for the next day, and then she must wear it – without speaking of the dare, the entire day. She must do her best to play it off as though she choose that item as part of her normal wardrobe. You might be laughing at her wearing a horrible vest, but you’ll be too busy trying to look cool in her mom’s old elastic waist pants to even try.
