Happy Valentine’s Eve! I’m posting this video/outfit post because this is the ideal thing I’d wear on a Valentine’s day date! Now, don’t get me wrong, I love the traditional pink and red outfits- but to be honest, there are times where I don’t want to be gimmicky, and I’d rather go for a bit of class! In my opinion, the subtle pop of pink of holiday-ish enough for me! There’s lots of gems sprinkled within this outfit. The first being this sequin shirt. I love how I can layer it, wear it on it’s own. Dress it up with a skirt, or dress it down with dark denim! The second gem is this gorgeous skirt. I wore it last week with a denim shirt and loved how flowy and fun the outfit was… but it’s so versatile that I can also feature it as a statement in this romantic outfit! What’s your ideal Valentine’s outfit? Traditional pink or red? Or something glam/romantic? Thanks so much for reading!
p.s. special thanks to my wonderful Husband, J for filming and editing the video. He is truly a natural talent and I’m so lucky to have an aspiring photographer/videographer for a soul mate.

    hello! I don't like this outfit. It makes you look much older. But the rest of your blog posts are ace. I really like your sequin jumper like a few posts down. I like the name of your blog, its kind of inspiring. Kind of I'm following you :)and would be most appreciative if you would check out mine 🙂

    also do you know how to make the link into like a clickable thing? Rather than a copy and paste thing. Help appreciated 🙂

    The volume on that skirt is gorgeous! I love the shots of you turning around with the skirt billowing away. This was a great Valentine's Day look!

    I think this is my favorite outfit of yours!! I almost thought I was reading Atlantic-Pacific for a split second. You need to let me take pictures of you! And tell the husband he is really killing it with that camera. Missing your guts already…and I hope J doesn't hate me for my movie choice!! Ha ha!
