Last Minute Valentine’s Day Outfits

Not sure what you’re going to wear yet?? Here’s a few ideas:

I might be wearing this American Apparel Lace Print Nylon Tricot 3/4 Sleeve Dress in Red which is currently on sale for $27.

Or I’m super tempted to pick up this American Apparel Belle De Jour Dress because it’s on sale for $33:

This cute pink short sleeved H&M jersey dress is on sale for $12.95

www.blushinginhollywood.comIf you’re not into red/pink/black this H&M green sleeveless dress is gorgeous and $29.95:

This long-sleeved jersey dress by H&M would look great in black or burgandy and could be worn for tons of occasions and it’s $24.95

Do you see a theme here? I think that classic, body-hugging silhouettes are super sexy and feminine. A lot of times even if you’re trying to cover something up a fitted dress will disguise your “flaws” and overall be more flattering.

If you’re somewhere cold I highly recommend these Spanx Haute Contour Tights which are pretty expensive at $42, but they are opaque, super nice quality, and they won’t stretch out throughout the night which is a huge plus in my book. In my opinion/experience, Spanx with the shorts to smooth your butt and thighs just flatten your butt and are usually too long for the majority of my dresses. Plus this is a way to get some smoothing and not feel like Bridget Jones when you’re taking off your clothes after the date.

Forever 21 is a surprisingly great place for heels that are both cute and comfortable. I have my eye on these Forever 21 black Metallic Ankle Strap Heels ($30):

There’s also a version with a lower heel that comes in Taupe. These Forever 21 Faux Suede Ankle-Strap Heels ($25) would be very versatile for spring:

If you’re going to wear the tights then you’ll need something closed-toe like the Forever 21 Faux Suede Platform Pumps ($23). Fun fact: I bought a similar pair to these (also from F21) that were patent and 6″ tall for Halloween and they ended up being my favorite heels.

And if you’re going on a picnic or if you just know you’re going to eat a lot 😉 there’s Francesca’s Collection Leigh Lace Dress ($48)
