Valentine’s Day Outfit Idea: Red Dress + Black Boots.

Dressing up? A Valentine’s Day outfit for a night on town.

Now that we’re out of January (bless!), February 14th is just around the corner. Which means it’s time to start planning that Valentine’s Day outfit. If you’re going the fancy route– be it with your main squeeze or a group of pals– let me suggest something of the burgundy variety, like this dress from H&M. (It’s last season, but I’ve linked so many killer alternatives at the end of this post.) The swingy tassels and ruffles add some fun, while the slouchy tie waist means you can clean your plate and not have to worry about an obvious food baby. The lightweight fabric needed some warming up to make it winter-ready, so I layered tights on underneath (not pictured: a heavy shearling jacket) and a pair of cool pointed toe boots.

Shop the look:

Although this dress is lighter in weight (which makes it ideal for early fall, spring, and brisk summer nights), the color and longer sleeves make it a great pick for a Valentine’s Day outfit. Just don’t forget your coat!

Stay tuned: next week I’ll be sharing a more casual Valentine’s Day outfit for those keeping the festivities lower key.
