Fun frocks, floral prints excite for date night

Pencil skirts, polka dots, red dresses add to ‘wow’ factor on Valentine’s Day dinners

It’s that time of year again: a romantic night out for those in a relationship, a first date with someone special or a girls’ night out for those celebrating “Singles Awareness Day.”
It’s Valentine’s Day weekend. That means it’s time to break out that “wow” outfit to impress your significant other or someone new. Here are some romantic and fun ideas to get you started.

A fresh spin for Valentine’s is to go for a bold print, whether it be polka dots or florals. The black polka dot dress isn’t for everyone, but in a flattering shape and paired with bright shoes and some cute accessories, it can signal that you are fun-loving and a potential girlfriend.

If polka dots aren’t your thing, stick with the classic Valentine’s Day color palette with trendy florals in a light pink, red and black combo. If you want to shake it up a little, ring in the beginning of spring with teals, pale green and the ever-popular coral.

Another easy option is a black, knee-length fitted pencil skirt with a bright top tucked in. This outfit gives off a chic and flirty vibe at once. The little black skirt is universally flattering, and a sleeveless top in deep purple or a bright hue adds a pop of color. The perfect accessory is a pair of black heels (not too tall) and a lot of confidence.

The standby classic is the solid red dress. It can be worn in many different shapes: strapless with a cinched center, a one-shoulder variation (a very hot style), a floor-length number for a more upscale night or a simple knee-length style with a thin strap. Throw on a cute cardigan or blazer for a chilly night, and you have the perfect outfit. To put a little edge in your style, throw on a black, worn, fitted leather jacket and some black heels.

Lastly, for those who aren’t looking to get glitzy, there is the option of an oversized sweater with leggings. The goal is to look nicer than if you were just heading out to class in yesterday’s leggings, though. Go for a fitted look with a wide or skinny belt at the middle, layer some necklaces and throw on a pair of boots over those leggings. This look is sure to catch any guy’s attention, showing you can be casual while still looking stylish.


The perfect Valentine’s Day accessory is some light pink gloss or a red lip, sure to wow your date.  So this year, pick your style from above, and wear it with some attitude.
