Hello beauties. Today’s post features some ideas for a Valentine’s date night. Of course, these are not limited to Valentine’s alone. You can pretty much rock any of these on any date night out!
Look 1: Casual versus Dressed Up
Casual-Chic Option:
- Features a pair of white distressed jeans with a blush wrap sweater or lace top.
- I’ve heard people tell me they are afraid to try white jeans because they think it’s only for really slim people. NOT TRUE. Myth-busting here and now! Don’t knock it until you try it so please, get a pair and give it a go!
- To keep the neutral look going, you can pair with an open sweater, nude pumps, and a clutch.
Dressed Up:
- The second look features a nude and silver midi dress.
- You can pair with grey or nude heels and a silver envelope clutch.
- You can add an extra touch in a number of ways. For example, for a cinched waist, belt the dress. I show a grey wrap belt option.
- This will help define you waist. Great for all shapes and sizes, my dear!
- The grey duster coat also adds an easy breezy touch. Just because it doesn’t come with a belt doesn’t mean you can’t belt it:-)
Look 2: Red accessories versus Neutral
Red accessories:
- Red accessories like the clutch, shoes and belt pictured above, give a nice pop of color and contrast against the nude dress and belted coat.
- Some red lipstick completes the look and makes a bold statement.
Neutral accessories:
- If the pop of color is a bit too much for you, try nude accessories.
- For example, you can opt for grey or nude heels and a grey belt.
- A nice grey coat pairs nicely. You can also belt the grey coat to give it a sophisticated look.
