Shop with Me! (#3)

 

With Valentine’s Day coming up, I’ve been thinking about what I would want to wear on a nice night out with my husband.  You know, if that were to ever happen, haha!  Seriously, once we became parents Valentine’s Day  pretty much took a back seat to spending time with our little one, but I think we are both at the point now where we are realizing that we may have been overdoing it, and that one night out won’t hurt anyone.  (Tell my deeply attached Momma heart that and she’ll “humph” at you, but my Momma brain completely agrees with me.)  Just in case my Momma Brain wins this battle I’ve been putting together ideas for how I’d like to look that night.  I haven’t purchased anything just yet, just daydreaming, but that’s half the fun right?

With spring right around the corner, and pink everywhere these days, thanks to Pantone’s color of the year, I can’t seem to escape floral patterns and blush tones.  Honestly I don’t want to, which is why I chose all of the above for this weeks “Shop with Me!”

I prefer long flowing gowns, so for me, this beautiful floral gown from Anthropologie, paired with these nude sandals from Nordstrom are the perfect pairing for a special night out.  Each piece will come in handy on their own over the warmer months too.  Pair the dress with some flats for a more casual approach, or dress up a casual outfit with the sandals.

Accessorize your outfit with simple jewels such as this beautiful pair of earrings, and gold bangle.

Have you been paying attention to Hollywood’s award season red carpet looks?  If so you might have noticed that the “less is more” approach is all the rage when it comes to cosmetics right now, so I’ve chosen some subtle colors that should give you just the right amount of color to get the look for yourself.

Of course you can’t forget your signature fragrance.  My go to is Flowerbomb by Viktor and Rolf!

There you have it!  My idea of the perfect Valentine’s Day date outfit.  So how about you?  Do you celebrate by going out, or staying in?  Will you be getting dressed up, or spend it in your pajamas like I usually do?  Haha!  Whatever you do, I hope you enjoy it!!
