love is our true destiny.

It is almost time! Not quite...but....Valentine's Day is on the way. Shoppers are in a tizzy making sure there is enough chocolate and candy on hand for the big day. That the chick flicks are ready to go. And the perfect outfit is planned from head to toe. This year I am not doing a whole lot for the holiday. Minus cooking dinner for my husband. Despite this, I have my hair, outfit, and makeup all picked out. I can't help it! Any excuse to get glam. Especially at the moment. The winter months are usually full of baggy sweaters, sweat pants, and lounging around in the apartment. So I will make the most of this chance to dress up. At least a little. 

Valentine's Day fashion can be a lot of things. It can be casual, girly, glamorous, sophisticated....and everything in between. That gives you a lot of options. What I love to do? Play with colour (pink and red are always a good idea) and print (heart shaped everything or even cute Cupid arrows). Which is what inspired the outfit below. It is my idea V-Day look. A simple red dress. A cute heart shaped accessory. A pair of glamorous heels. What more do you need? It is romantic, flirty, and fun. 


Like I said....Valentine's Day fashion can be a lot of things. This is just one example of a holiday inspired look. Want a few more ideas? Check out my latest YouTube video for the creation of beauty is art. It features three different outfits. Perfect for a night out or a night in! Take a look....


It is coming up quick. Valentine's Day is almost here. I cannot wait for it. The kindness, the romance, and of course, the fashion. What a wonderful way to celebrate.

What will you wear on Valentine's Day? Which outfit do you like best?

  5. I'll probably go with a classic red and pink shirt with my leggings and some lipstick. I'll walk around town and make the boys swoon! I really love that outfit with the skirt and graphic tee. I like that it's casual but also girly and fun!
