People like this must have something to prove to others...haven't figured out the use of these posts, and I see them all the time. He made this thread for advice, and being so mean as to use that thread to discourage him from going out his first time (smiley at the end or not, regardless) is just utterly pathetic.
Now to the question....wear whatever you feel best in. Even if its kinda crazy, if it makes you feel better, go for it. The biggest thing here is to let people think you know all about this sort of thing and that you're the life of the party. Of course if you're not a big talker, this can make things a bit more difficult, but if you act completely cool and loose and like you've got it all under control, people will simply think you do too. Then once you see that they're accepting you, you'll feel find and have a good nite after that. Its as simple as that: just let them think you're confident in yourself about going to this party and everything you do tonight: don't look at the ground, keep your head up and make eye contact with the people near you, greeting them with a casual "hey how you doing". Don't speek softly or quietly, make sure you're firmly saying your words. All these things are simple clues that let others think you're confident, even if you're not. Not very hard to fool people. Good luck! Post back with results/how the night went.
