For the second look of my Valentine’s Day miniseries, I decided to go a bit edgier. While my previous blog post featured a look that was more sweet and demure, I wanted to style another that was appropriate for a chic girl’s night out. Again, in efforts to find pieces that were less blatantly geared towards the upcoming holiday celebrations, I had to be a bit more strategic with the items I gravitated towards. It wasn’t long however before I saw this floral mesh top, and while I was hesitant at first due to the vibrant colors, I was confident that I could make it work. I immediately decided that this sheer beauty would be the focal point of the look and thus, chose to keep the rest of the pieces neutral. I recently purchased this pair of trousers in a light taupe wash with leather side panels and thought they would create an interesting juxtaposition against the bold print. One thing I like about these types of ensembles is that while they are simple, the garments themselves are so eye-catching you literally look put together without even trying! To keep everything cohesive, classic black pumps seemed like the easiest route to go in terms of footwear. In efforts to keep things streamlined, I also pulled out one of my archive pieces; an over-sized tailored vest from an exclusive collection that launched a few years back. Though my look was nearly complete, I couldn’t help but add a few more pops of color with a hot pink handbag and a bright red lip. I’ve always loved the mixture of classic and casual elements and fully embrace how these types of contrasts continue to shape my style. So, with that being said, what will you be wearing this Valentine’s Day? Comment below and whatever you’re doing, whether single, out with friends, or a loved one, make sure to stay lighthearted and enjoy yourself! Until next time!
