Look Book: Valentine's Day

Valentine’s day is fast approaching and for some romantics it is the biggest day on the calendar. So we thought we could help take the head ache out of deciding what to wear. To all the Valentine’s Day lovers and haters, whether you’ll be spending time with your man doing what love birds do, or just hanging out with girlfriends celebrating singledom, we have a few great ideas for this 14^th of February.

  

OUTFIT 1:

For us this first outfit represents everything about Valentine’s Day. The blush tones and floral print of the dress create a flirty but romantic and feminine look. Paired with simple accessories, the dress is definitely the star of the outfit.

When planning for a date stilettos are often the first shoe of choice that comes to mind, however, they do not come close to wedge shoes when considering the comfort factor. Aside from it being a comfy alternative, a primary benefit of wedges is its versatility. The perfect pair of wedge shoes can take you from a casual date to a romantic dinner date. The tan colour of these particular wedges complements the soft hues in the dress and make for a perfect Valentine’s Day date outfit.

 

OUTFIT 2:

A perfectly fitted sheath skirt will do wonders for your midsection. Hugging in all the right places, this beige lace sheath skirt allows you to flaunt your body in a classy manner. Remember, when putting together an outfit keep it balanced. When wearing something fitted on the lower half, opt for a looser top and vice versa. Here we have paired the skirt with a looser sheer top which balances out the outfit and keeps it from being overly saucy!! The fuchsia colour adds a bright pop of colour and provides a nice contrast with the clean beige of the skirt.

 

 

OUTIFIT 3:

The final outfit is very Rachel Bilson-esque. Whether you dress them up or down, capris or boyfriend jeans make for a relaxed and casual look that is still incredibly chic. This comfy alternative to our much loved skinny denim means we no longer have to wriggle our way into our jeans.  The embroidered detailing adds the right balance of femininity to what is otherwise a dressed down look and prevents it from crossing the fine line between casual and daggy! The pearl earrings and brown sandals also help add a girly touch and offset the relaxed look.

 

 

 

Hopefully with these fabulous ideas, no matter who you're with and what you're doing this Valentine's Day, you'll be doing it in style!
