Calling all romantics! Valentine’s Day is approaching and if love (for shopping) is your thing, then this one’s for you. Sure, for a lot of people, Valentine’s Day is just another excuse to spend money and buy cards that eventually get tossed. But, if you love love and look for any excuse to “get cute,” then February 14th is the best holiday of the year.
From casually dating to married forever to in a “situationship,” I’ve rounded up ‘fits for the 14th that would even make Cupid want to add to his cart.
Dating
You’re officially “off the apps” and seeing a special someone on the regular. Whether you’re dropping the “L” word or still newly exclusive, you’re going to need an outfit that’s super cute, but not over the top. I love a drapey red blazer that you can pin and wear with a lacey bra underneath. Paired with jeans and a fun silver heel, it’s the perfect look for a fun and flirty night!
Situationship
Just Friends—No, Seriously!
As much as your friends and family may want you and your buddy to take the friendship to the next level, you are certain: THAT’S NOT HAPPENING. This look is perfect for a night at the movies or chilling together at home eating Chinese food straight out of the takeout containers. Because impressing is not on the agenda…comfort is!
Married Forever
It’s been a million years of being together and there’s a good chance you and your spouse didn’t even exchange cards or kiss each other goodbye as you shuttled the kids off to school in the morning. But, you and your boo managed to score a babysitter and are determined to keep your eyes open past 9pm to have a glass of wine and a dinner that doesn’t involve children. This outfit is put together and chic while remaining comfortable enough to let you roll right back in bed!
Galentine’s Day Girls’ Night
Who said Valentine’s with the gals had to involve pajamas and sweats? Nope, you and your girlies are single and ready to mingle—or maybe even taken, but ready to hit the town! Either way, this look is perfect for a pop of hotness. Sheer tops are trending right now. Paired with wide-leg jeans and a red lip, this is a fun look for Galentine’s Day and other girls' nights out!
Valentine’s Day Party at School
Considering the other moms think you only own yoga pants and sweatshirts, the Valentine’s Day party at school is a good chance to remind them that you “still got it.” Fool them a bit with a cute black and white striped cardigan and trendy red mesh ballet flats. They don’t need to know that the minute you get home, the bra is coming off and the bun is going back on your head.
