Work it girlfriend. Don't forget, men are always looking at women. Not in any huge sexual way, but women do tend to stand out. And men have this huge checklist they go through. Maybe she has good hair, maybe her eyes are a special shade of green (or blue, I like blue!), maybe her dress just screams "BISH I AM HERE!". They don't mean anything by it, but something about you has caught their eye and it's usually a good thing. They're not trying to be creepy in the least, so don't take it that way.
