Valentines Day. Another excuse to wear nice clothes and do your makeup for a special occasion (but then again, who needs an excuse!?) Whether you’re like me and are just staying in and treating it like any other day (I’m actually planning on filming my first ever YouTube video!), spending a girly day with friends, or going out with your boyfriend/girlfriend, I thought I would show you an outfit idea that I had for going out on that special day.
I thought about what style of outfit I would go for and I eventually decided on girly and cute but with a slight feel of a more ‘dressy’ look.
I think jumpsuits are a
great idea for this type of occasion, especially if you want to be super
comfortable and still look just as good as you would if you were wearing a
short body-con dress for example. The one that I am wearing is from Next and it is in this
beautiful navy blue colour. I love the intricate detailing on it coming from
the grey dots and the incredible white and pale pink flower details. I feel like
this gives the jumpsuit a bit more depth to it and also gives it more of a
‘dressy’ feel instead of an everyday casual look. The way that it pinches in at
the waist also gives an extra dimension to it in a similar way that the
detailing does.
I also chose to add this
white cardigan on top of the jumpsuit to give something extra to the outfit. I
think that this is perfect for this look as the lace detailing on the back lies
where the cross-over is on the back of the jumpsuit so it is almost like it fills
a blank space. The cardigan was from New Look however I got this a few years
ago but there may still be similar ones available.
For shoes I chose to wear
a pair of tan, suede wedges from New Look which you will have seen in some of
previous posts. I love these wedges as they make the outfit instantly look more
‘dressy’ without wearing a huge heel. They are super comfortable and easy to
walk in so you don’t need to worry about falling over in front of your date! As
the wedges are a neutral colour, they go with this jumpsuit well as they don’t
need to tie into any other colour which I personally love. I also love how the
suede gives the shoes and extra bit of depth and something a bit more
interesting to them rather than juts an ordinary shoe.
For my makeup and hair I
decided to go really simple and girly. I left my hair down and flicked one side
over into a side parting with a slight bit of volume like I would usually do on
an everyday basis. I didn’t straighten or curl it as I felt like this would be
a distraction away from the rest of the outfit and I wanted the jumpsuit to be
the main focus. For makeup I kept it really neutral using a few shades from the
Urban Decay Naked 3 palette on my eyes and the Revlon Lip-Butter in the shade Berry
Smoothie which is a really pretty pinky-nude.
I hope you all have an amazing Valentines Day however you are spending it and I hope that this post helped you if you were struggling for outfit ideas. If you recreate this look or take any inspiration from it be sure to spend me photos of it via my social media.
