Date tonight and would like to go Curly?

I was planning on just flat ironing my hair but I realized the top I was going to wear is very flowy and romantic and that some soft waves or curls would look better.

Here's the problem, flat ironing I can do (and with awesome results) curls......not so much. Here's what I have: small set hot rollers (not enough to do whole head), blow dryer, 2 curling irons in large and small and a triple barrel roller....don't ask me why, I have NO CLUE how to use it, it's just been sitting in my cabinet for the last 8 months. I'm also short on products, I have some mouse, some surf head texturizing stuff (never got the hang of that either) and hair spray.

I'll be washing my hair so I'll be blow drying it, thing is, unless I straighten it afterward it tends to look stringy and separated. My hair is in VERY good condition, I rarely heat style (I think the last time was new years) and deep condition regularly so I know it's not a side effect of damage (although I could use a trim).

Anyway, tips on how to go from wet to sultry hair?
