Be mine, Valentine. (Or not.)

V-Day

Long sleeve top / Mango quilted jacket / Erin Fetherston printed pants / RED Valentino black flat / Colorblock handbag


So unfortunately I'm doing absolutely nothing on Valentine's Day. I know.. bummer. Henry works all day (and into the night) and I'll be in a whole different state anyway. So, Todd and I will probably just canoodle on the couch and watch sappy movies that night. He's actually a pretty cute date. There will also be chocolates involved. (None for Todd, don't worry.)

Even with the absence of a date night, I do dream of stereotypical outfits to wear. This is kind of my "perfect Vday outfit" for going out and being romantic. I chose pants because a lot of times, our special nights out involve movies and maybe it's just me, but sitting in a freezing cold theater in a gross popcorn-covered chair, in a dress, just isn't for me. Pants win every time in that scenario! Also, I'm on the hunt for the perfect chambray shirt so I had to throw one in there and of course, a simple leather jacket and leather flats for some edge. Oh, and is the bag not so kitschy and cute? I had to.

If you remember, a while ago I wrote a recap of Erin Fetherston's Spring 2013 RTW line and I was GAGA over this lipstick print. It's actually all of her team's lip prints, made into a printed fabric just for Fetherston's line. Amazing. And if anyone wanted to buy me something in this print (the dress is cute too!), I wouldn't be mad... like.. actually the opposite of mad.

Lilac & Orange

Lilac & orange


Lilac shirt / Full Tilt studded bra / Flying Tomato / Charlotte Russe wedge heels / Mango bangle bracelet / Topshop spike earrings / Topshop bracelet / Rosegold bracelet

I have Spring fever already! I'm so ready for the warmth, longer days, and so many birthdays! Including mine and also, Todd's!

This color combo has been on the forefront of my mind lately and actually I have no idea why. I don't think I've seen it anywhere. And if you know me, this outfit is actually pretty feminine for me usually, but I'm so attracted to sheer blouses and fun shorts right now! I toughened it up with the studs in the accessories and on the bralette, and that made it feel much more suitable. Since the top and shorts are so loud, I kept the rest of the pieces neutral. And the black cuff keeps it weighed down for that added edge, instead of the whole thing being so light. You could always nix that piece. I just prefer a little weight to my spring time outfits. In my mind, you'd never know we have two whole months of blistering cold coming. Blah..
