If you’re spending Valentine’s Day having dinner at a fancy restaurant and seeing a local play, you need a more refined outfit than if you were going to a regular dinner-and-a-movie date.

If a pricey dinner followed by a cheesy box office movie sounds too cliché for your latest Valentine’s Day tastes, go for a cheaper, more romantic version by cooking with your cupid and renting from the local video store–all without leaving your humble abode. Now, just because you’re not stepping foot into the outdoors doesn’t mean you should look ragged. Au contraire – take this opportunity to look a bit sexier than you could outside your house.
Fashion Formula for a Romantic Night In = Kimono Shrug + Sexy Lingerie-as-Top + Brown Bermuda Shorts + Peep Toe Wedge Shoes.
Pleated Kimono Cardigan | $69 at Bebe
Silk Georgette Halter Babydoll | $68 at Victoria’s Secret
Rubbish Pleated Back Pocket Bermuda Shorts | $38 at Nordstrom

Reminiscing about your ballerina days is as easy as dusting off your old black leotard (or buying a new one if you threw it away), pairing it with light-colored ripped jeans, and a pair of (real or pseudo) ballet slippers.
Where to sport this look: If you still attend ballet classes, you can wear it to the studio, but for those who’d rather look like a ballerina than act like one, wear this casual look while shopping, getting your hair cut, or having lunch with an acquaintance.

Shorts in the middle of winter may sound ludicrous (especially if you live in a windy, foggy, snowy, and/or rainy city), but with some heavy-duty tights and major confidence, you can pull it off without looking like you missed the memo about winter.
Where to sport this look: Just because you’re in shorts doesn’t mean you need to frolic in a field of greens. This sophisticated look can be worn to a chic restaurant, the theatre, an art/fashion show, but never on an ice-skating date with your new man (even opaque tights can rip).

I’m usually not a fan of the ubiquitous short frilly skirt, but I have to admit, this particular version has me smitten.
Why is this skirt special? For me, it’s the combo of the fitted top layer and the frilly asymmetrical underlayers. Even better, the skirt is versatile enough to go from cute to glam to trendy to sporty. This week, we’ll show you how!
