What to Wear for Valentine’s Day: Fashion Bloggers Tell All

For first dates/Tinder dates:

“For a first date, I would take a more casual approach when it comes to picking an outfit. You don’t want to look like you’re trying too hard, plus it’s good to keep some killer looks in the arsenal for later. I also think it’s best to go with whatever makes you feel most comfortable and confident. For me, it’s denim. I’d rock something chic and fun for the first night out—black skinny jeans, a black and white striped top, white moto jacket and pumps. I think this is the perfect effortless ensemble to make your man swoon and leave a lasting first impression.

For your first Valentine’s Day together:

“I love the idea of something sexy that doesn’t scream cliché Valentine’s Day. Red is so expected, which is why I love this black and blue lace top. Rocking an off-the-shoulder style is sexy and sophisticated. Non-traditional colors with romantic lace is the winning outfit combination for your first Valentine’s Day with your main squeeze.”

For long-term and married couples:

“Once you’re married anything goes, right?! Actually, quite the contrary. When I’m putting together my outfit, I think of the outfits that I receive the most compliments on from my guy. What outfits does he always compliment me on? What styles does he love? My hubby loves simple and classic so I love this white shift dress for our upcoming Valentine’s date night. I’m as big a fan of the little white dress as I am the little black dress and this dress is so on trend with it’s beautiful, embellished bell sleeve. It shows just enough leg and a sexy lace up heel is the perfect target for Cupid’s arrow.”

For first dates/Tinder dates:

“Carefree yet polished is the look I thought about for a first date/Tinder date. Comfort played a huge role in choosing this particular outfit; however, the low-back leotard is subtly sexy. I chose to wear simple pumps because they are easy to walk in—you know, in case the date sucks and you need to run away! My advice to any women headed out on a first date/Tinder date this Valentine’s Day is don’t worry too much about wearing the usual reds and pinks. Just choose something you know you look and feel great wearing.”

For your first Valentine’s Day together:

“Teenage love is what I think of when spending that first Valentine’s Day together. That’s why I put together a denim miniskirt and a pair of black booties. This look makes me feel pretty because of the pink velvet but edgy because of the rips on the skirt. To top it off, I decided to add in the necktie. It’s a nice alternative to the typical choker but still on trend. However, you’ll want to check in with your date and dress for the occasion.”

For long-term and married couples:

“For this look, I chose something sexy. This dress makes me feel confident and risqué. If you are in a long-term relationship or are married and wondering what to wear for Valentine’s Day, I say go all out! Wear the dress that will make you turn heads, and make your significant other feel special to be your date. It is easy to get lost in the routine, and this is your chance to spice things up!”

For first dates/Tinder dates:

“For a first date, I would go for a rocker chick look. The red dress with lace accents says, ‘I’m friendly and approachable.’ But the leather says ‘I’m not naive, so don’t try to mess with me.’ Especially on a first date, I think it’s important to let your outfit reflect who you really are. This dress is simple, but the accessories really make it pop.”

For your first Valentine’s Day together:

“Classic yet trendy is what I accomplished with the high-waist trousers. This outfit makes me feel bold and to some extent, sexy. Aesthetically pleasing color combinations are crucial to any look. For women who are headed out on a first date, just be yourself and push your limits. If you think something is cute but too bold, go for it!”

For long-term and married couples:

“The ensemble was inspired by a celebrity red carpet look. When I see a collar jumpsuit, I think black-tie formal attire. Adding the blazer was only natural. I needed a pop of color to contrast the black, so I chose a cobalt blazer with matching pumps. I added a metallic belt to attract attention to the collar. If you and your sweetheart have been together for awhile, they already know your sense of style, so this outfit isn’t so much about making a statement as it is taking his breath away.”
