Finding the right gift on Valentine's Day can be difficult, but figuring out what to wear can sometimes be even more of a challenge. Most Valentine's day themed clothing is cheesy and over-the-top, and it can be hard to find a red or pink top/dress that you love when time is running out. A simple solution is to get a little creative with what's already in your closet! Many times, a summery dress can be "winterized" just by adding a layer underneath. I blogged about this dress a few months ago when the weather was still bearable enough to wear by itself. Today, I threw on a black long sleeve turtleneck and tights, and the dress was completely transformed. Now, I'm able to be festive without sacrificing my warmth this Valentine's Day, and at no extra cost. Who doesn't like that?! Happy shopping loves! xoxo

Today marks the beginning of February, which means Valentine's Day is just around the corner. The status of your dating life doesn't need to determine how much red and pink you wear in the next two weeks though. Have a significant other? Awesome; here's a date night outfit idea with a little edge...Single? Just as well; here's an outfit to rock on Valentine's Day before you treat yourself to a nice bottle of vino...These red dress pants from Gap are probably the most comfortable that I've found, and I just snagged my BCBG pumps off the clearance rack at DSW for $20!! It was "shoe love" at first sight. I decided to pair these with a sleeveless maxi blazer. To say maxi blazers have been hot this season is an understatement, and they're an extremely versatile piece to have in your closet on top of that! If red pants aren't your style, try a black tshirt dress with red strappy heels for a pop of color, or a pink lace blouse with white destructed denim. Links to similar styles below! xoxo
