If you're like me, you'll no small amount of time making sure your outfit is just right for a special night out (whether it's with a new beau or a tried and true love).
Of course every style differs when considering both the occasion and the individual, but hopefully this example above will provide a basis that you can build on to create your own personal look.
I picture the
Shadow Roses Dress from Kensie a perfect medium for a date dress. It toes the line between sophisticated and sexy, and the sultry floral print is fun with a hint of mystery. What's more - it's not the sort of dress where you'll have to mindfully avoid flashing your bits to the public every time you bend over, thus allowing you to put full focus on your date.
Statement shoes are a big 'do' this season, and these
Sergio Zelcer Pumps absolutely stand out. The patent has been polished to a high gloss (with a mirror-like shine at the heel) and the rounded toe combined with a kitten heel looks positively coquettish. These pumps are ultra comfortable too, so if your plans include dancing the night away you can do it without worrying about a heel hangover the next day.
Since your next dinner date is bound to be in celebration of V-Day, you just might be getting something glittery to go around your neck, but for now you'll just have to fall in love with
Nashelle's Silver Swank Necklace. It features a garnet stone which matchess the Shadow Roses print almost perfectly, plus the dusky blush of the stone inspires such lovely thoughts of romance.
And finally, and girl who insists on carrying a bag only big enough to fit a lipstick tube is not thinking sensibly. Sure, it's cute, but it's no good for carrying those little essentials like mints, gloss, and even a tiny sewing kit in case one of your buttons jumps ship. Opt instead for a medium small bag like the
Juicy Couture Easy Rider. It's compact but filled with handy little compartments to keep you organized.
