Here it is, the obligatory Valentine's day look. I'm a week early, but I wanted to get this out there in case anyone needs an outfit idea. The great thing about this one though is that it can be worn year-round. It's only a slight nod to the holiday. In the past I've gone all out with the pink and red, but now that I'm getting older, I think subtlety is better, don't you? Instead of bright red, how about burgundy? And in place of a vibrant pink, how about lilac or blush?

I am incredibly lucky to have so much love in my life. Not because they love me, but because I love them. On days where I feel like I'm spinning out, I try to pause and remember something about each of the special people I know. It could be a song that reminds me of that person, or a memory we created together. I've never been afraid of telling people how much they mean to me. Life is too short for that! So whether you're celebrating V-Day with your significant other, friends, or even alone, don't forget to reflect on the good in your life.

  2. This is such a pretty, classic date night look! And burgundy and blush are one of my fave combos. I think we need to work on making burgundy more accepted as a a year-round color. Those nude pumps are great too...that's a piece I still don't own but wish I did!

  3. your outfit is classic and beautiful, on point like always.
    If it wasn't for blogs I would forget about Valentine's Day, hehe. We have our dating anniversary and then my birthdar right around the same time so we get overloaded with dates to remember
