You could try extracting the date part in a String variable and then create a new instance of Date with your format.

String ExtractedDate = '2015-07-27';

list<String> lstSplitDate = ExtractedDate.split('-');
Date myDate = date.newinstance(Integer.valueOf(lstSplitDate[0]), Integer.valueOf(lstSplitDate[1]), Integer.valueOf(lstSplitDate[2]));

Home this will help you ;)

You already have a date 'as a date', not as a string. The format you are talking about (2014-01-20 00:00:00) is just a visual representation of a value contained in variable of a DateTime type. If you want the date to appear in the specified format (1/20/2014), just output it using format() method:

Datetime yourDate = Datetime.now();
String dateOutput = yourDate.format('dd/MM/yyyy');

Salesforce date fields can be manipulated by the DateTime class. Try using one of the "format" methods provided to convert the date field into a string, in your local timezone and desired format, and then you can concatenated the dates.
