Valentine’s Day Outfit Guide

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Lehigh chapter.

Can you believe it, Valentine’s Day is right around the corner! What are your plans for the most anticipated Sunday night of the year? An even better question… what are you wearing? Of course ladies, we want to put our best V-Day foot forward festively, but that doesn’t have to mean working your Grandma’s wool sweater with Cupid himself stitched on the front! No matter if you are heading out with your special someone for a romantic dinner, or just hanging out with your best girlfriends, you can rock your hearts, arrows, and reds anywhere! Check out my picks for the hottest looks this Valentine’s Day.

Night Out on the Town (of Sketchlehem)

The deep red color and velvet material makes this the perfect dress for a Valentine’s Night Out! It’s easy and can be suited to even the Lehigh Valley’s February chills (spoiler alert: It’s forecasted to be 17° Sunday night).  Throw on some black tights, black blazer, bold necklace and you’re ready to go!  Whether you’re hitting one of Bethlehem’s rustic restaurants, having some drinks at the bars, or just strolling around the town (North Side, obviously), this look is sure to impress in any atmosphere!

 

Genuine People $29

Romantic Dinner for Two

This dress has the max va-va-voom factor! The body-con silhouette and deep V-neck exude sexiness with the deep red screaming V-Day!  Don’t worry, the lack of skin up top will definitely be made up for with that “mile-long legs” illusion you’ll be rocking with this look! Throw on some sky-high stilettos and take that lucky guy’s breath away!

 

Nasty Gal $88

Ice Skating

This is the perfect outfit to heat up a new flame while braving the cold! The fabrics are breathable and give you enough flexibility to fly around the rink while on the arm of a new fling, but still looks super cute! The red and white heart sweater adds just the right touch of V-Day without overstating, and show me one girl at Lehigh who doesn’t own a pair of Hunter boots! Even better, they are super comfortable to throw on for a bite to eat after wearing ice skates for hours!

 

Genuine People $44

Night In with the Girls!

The ultimate comfy clothes look! Stretchy leggings and a big sweatshirt are perfect for curling up with your best friends, and keep you warm too! Personal suggestion: add some super fuzzy socks! The walk can be freezing (not to mention long) between dorms/houses.  Now throw on some of your favorite Rom-Coms, heat up some of your friend’s Easy Macs, and eat all of the Valentine’s Day candy they had left in the CVS! Give Gosling my love while you’re at it ;)
