Valentine’s Day reminds me a little bit of New Year’s Eve– some people think it’s overrated, but it’s really just what you make of it, you know? I think it can be such fun to dress for different holidays, especially one so feminine. No matter what your plans are on February 14th, I put together some Valentine’s Day outfit ideas for you below!
The dress is (obviously) the statement here, and I think it would be perfect for the spring and summer. To make it work while it’s still winter, I pulled the chocolate brown accents into a cozy cardigan you can drape over your shoulders and shoes topped with grosgrain bows. The heel is very subtle– it’s more like a chunky kitten heel– to give you the tiniest bit of height!! The studs are the finishing touch, taking a classic (pearls!) and making them more modern.
This shirt! All of the embroidered details are just darling and I love how the hearts are more organic looking. The price tag is great too– I couldn’t write a Valentine’s Day outfit ideas post without it. There’s nothing that pairs better with a white button down than effortless jeans, and I couldn’t resist adding in more red through the heels (that come in SO many other colors!) and huggie earrings. I’m still on my journey of trying to wear more red, and this look would definitely accomplish that.
I’m all for a cozy Valentine’s Day in! Some people would be surprised by how many sweatshirts I own for a “fashion blogger” and chances are, I’ll scoop up some more this year. I’m a sucker for French phrases, and at $25, this sweatshirt is an easy YES from me. I just found out that Abercrombie offers “Curve Love” options for their leggings, making them wider in the hips and more narrow in the waist. Genius!! You can also choose your preferred length. No cozy day is complete without slippers, and these are a lookalike for a more expensive pair with great reviews. Oh, and those $6 heart socks– how could you not?!
A classic look with classic books 📚🧥 @jcrew updated their iconic trench with a longer, more modern length and I’m loving it! I love it paired with these black jeans and a simple white tee for a causal look and it would also look chic with heels and a cute little dress for a night out! 🖤 #injcrew #ad

one year in the books of BROTHERS FOREVER 🫶🏻 I can’t believe how big both boys have gotten in just one year…. My heart can barely take it. I can’t remember life without them and, truly, it feels like they’ve always been a part of me. #brothers
@ohmymahjong hooked me UP! Learning mahjong has been on my mind for a while and this year we finally made it happen! My 97 year old grandma Charlotte plays mahjong every week- and now that I have learned, I know what’s been keeping her so young! Mahjong is FUN and the perfect mix of luck and strategy. The rules can be a lot to learn (I’m still learning for sure) but it’s easy to pick up with a good teacher.
Thank you #ohmymahjong for all the fun goodies… chic tiles, a handy mat, great organizers! Everything we need for our next mahjong girls night! #mahjong
🏈🍴 As a #HoodPartner, I’m bringing my A-game with a chili bar featuring the ultimate all-star—@hphood Sour Cream. Made with real Hood Milk and Cream, every bite’s a win with high quality flavor!
When your toothbrush (@shoptrask!) is so cute you ALMOST don’t want to use it! I considered “saving” it (for what? I don’t know) and decided to ignore my instinct and enjoy it every day! I often have to remind myself about the number of stickers I didn’t use as a kid because I was “saving” them… or stationery collecting dust in a drawer because I was “saving” them… or candles that went unlit because I was “saving” them… or even a cute outfit I was “saving” for a special occasion. Trying to be better about using the things I have and love without guilt!!
I’ve been loving wearing my scarf collection and I’ve been getting questions about how I tie them! This is probably the way I wear it most- it’s super easy and the trick is to not be overly fussy with it. Go for it and zhuzh it up a little but don’t make it too perfect! Goal is effortless!
Fold the silk scarf across the middle to create a long triangle. Holding the two corners, twist the triangle back *towards* you a few times. While holding the corners, wrap behind your neck crossing behind you and pulling the corners back to the front of your neck. Tie once, then again to secure. I like to tuck mine into a button down!
PS I got this Hermes scarf as a souvenir while in Paris!
I’m all for cute and cozy! Thanks for the suggestions!

The French phrase is wrong 🙁 it should be written “mon chéri” or “ma chérie”
love all of these outfits. my only complaint would be the shoes. Can’t wear heels due to my balance issues (autoimmune disease)
As a floral designer, I will likely be leaning into the cozy Valentine’s Day look for the holiday!! Love all of these ideas! ❤️ Hallie
Love the J Crew heart top!
