February is here, and it’s the month for love! Whether you agree with that or not, the month is one of fashion-forward outfits. Whether you’re heading to the movies with friends, a candlelit dinner with that special someone, or a romantic picnic with your girls, a cute outfit may just make the night perfect.
At the end of the winter season, color is your best friend. It’s the perfect excuse to wear those bright colors you may not be brave enough to any other time. Pink has continued to stay a solid trend for this season as soft pastels and ballet pinks are rising in popularity. If you want something a little more bold, bright red is making a statement in everything from runway shows to racks of everyday stores. The darker reds, like maroon and burgandy are the perfect vibrant, chic, and bold mark of a good outfit. Bold reds can help you stand out amongst the crowd while soft pinks help you fit in with the month’s theme of love.
A Date Night in
For a casual night, maybe a comfy movie or a night in, comfort can be essential to style. For those nights in, a matching set can be the perfect choice. White Fox is the go-to brand for those comfy sets that make everyone look like that instagram model it girl. Their sets come in all kinds of fun reds and pinks perfect for Valentine’s Day dates.
For those nights where you stay in, maybe for a movie or a simple dinner, oversized is the way to go. Baggy, oversized jeans can be paired with a warm colored going out top or a baggy zip up. Or, an oversized zip up or crewneck could be paired with a simple pair of black leggings. Pair any of these with a cute pair of socks and some basic brown Uggs for the perfect cozy vibe.
Dinner Dates out
If you want an outfit for those dinner dates, you may need something more sleek and elegant. Sleek satin slip dresses are the sophisticated option for those nicer dinners. If you need to keep warm on those colder nights, the perfect choice is of course a fur jacket. The real ones can get a little pricey, but faux fur options can be found at local stores like Garage.
A cute top in red or light pink can be easily paired with a black coat and some kitty heals to dress up for any nice dinner date or night out with the girlfriends. The key to any of these nicer outfits is to match any of these outfits with a touch of loving color and popping accessories.
Dates Outdoors
Finally, for those outdoors dates—maybe a picnic or romantic walk—layering is essential for this time of the year. A flowy dress can be paired with a cropped cardigan on top or a pair of fleece lined tights underneath. For a more girly, romantic look, pair these looks with a pair of ballet flats. For a more practical look, a pair of white sneakers or simple mini uggs are the perfect choice.
For our final thoughts on date night fashion, we’ll wrap it up by saying this months outfits are all about combining color, confidence, and comfort and balancing it with the occasion. Whether you’re keeping it casual with your friends or going out with your date, incorporating loving colors with fun styling can make the perfect outfit. So, if you want that date to be extra special remember to dress up, have fun, and let you’re outfit do the talking!
