I will likely be having a super low-key Valentine’s Day. I might get together with a few of my girlfriends to go see the new 50 Shades movie that week, haha! But otherwise no real plans.
But… if you do have plans and want a red dress. This sweater dress is gorgeous! It’s actually a great dress option for any day, Valentine or not.
I picked this coat up last year during an end of season sale. I had been searching for a camel top coat for a while and when it went on sale, I couldn’t resist. I mostly wear it with dressier outfits and almost always when I have to wear something a little more professional. Definitely a coat I’m glad to have in my closet. They have a slightly darker version out this year, although it’s sold out in most sizes and here’s the Factory version in navy (all sizes). And if you really want camel, here’s a gorgeous one from Lauren Ralph Lauren.
Sweater dresses are always comfortable. Draper James makes a great one– I love the navy one I have from last year so I knew this one would be just as great. It has a nice stretch to it and lays in such a nice, smooth way. Plus the detailing on the sleeves is so sweet.

Such a cute dress! Seeing 50 Shade’s with friends is definitely a real plan! I actually have nothing yet planned with my husband, but our trick is to celebrate the day after, so we don’t have to compete for reservations!

I love how classic this outfit is. The red is a perfect pop for Valentine’s day but the classic black pumps, bag and camel coat are just such timeless pieces. Thanks for the inspiration!
That is the perfect Valentine’s Day dress! I love the flared sleeves and skirt!
