How to Dress for Valentine’s Day

If you’ve landed on this page, you’re probably looking for some outfit inspiration for Valentine’s Day. It’s an opportunity to show off your aesthetic and to embrace your feminine side with a romantic look to celebrate the occasion. This blog post looks at the key components of any Valentine’s Day outfit to help you create one that works for your style and fits the occasion.

I’m sharing five must-have essentials for your Valentine’s Day look – from the shoes you should wear to the dainty jewelry that adds a feminine feel. All these items are an instant ‘add to cart.’

Kitten Heels

You might think Valentine’s Day is the time to pull out your skyscraper heels. I think they’re better kept at the back of your closet. You don’t want Valentine’s Day to be overshadowed by heels that are pinching your feet or impossible to walk in. Choose a kitten heel instead to give you an elegant look with a heel that you can walk and dance in all night long. The last thing you want to be worrying about is your footwear. It’s worth skipping velvet or suede shoes and choosing a patent leather in case you come across a spell of rain.

Blanket Scarf

One staple you want to have on hand for Valentine’s Day is a blanket scarf. You never know what the weather is going to be like in February, so you want to be prepared. You can drape it around your shoulders as a shawl or even use it as a blanket if the temperatures drop. With how busy Valentine’s Day is, you might find yourself eating al fresco or enjoying a drink outside.

Lightweight Jacket

Along with your blanket scarf, you want to have a lightweight jacket that matches your outfit. It’s best to choose a neutral color that you can slip on to wear when you’re walking from the car to the restaurant or venue. If you’re not sure what your Valentine’s Day plans are, then it’s always best to come prepared with a jacket. Unless it’s forecasting heavy rain, you’ll be able to wear a lightweight jacket to keep away the evening chill.

 

Choose minimalistic jewelry

You want to focus your jewelry on minimalistic and dainty pieces that add a feminine flair without being too much of a statement. Choose a pair of pearl earrings, a diamond tennis bracelet, or a pendant necklace to complement your outfit. If you’re celebrating Valentine’s Day with a significant other, you might end up with an extra piece of jewelry by the end of the night.

Bring a clutch bag

You don’t want to be carrying around a heavy tote bag on Valentine’s Day. Trust me. You’ll want to be carrying around the flowers your partner got you, instead of a Mary Poppins bag. Finish off your outfit with a clutch bag that holds your essentials, including your backup lipstick and debit cards.

If you’re going out for the day or want a hands-free option, look for a clutch bag that has a long chain so that you can wear it on your shoulder or crossbody.
