soooooo, i thought it'd be fun to do a little sort of kind of v-day fashion thing. dressed up for those of you fancy people heading out to a swanky bar with a fancy martini oooor dressed down for those of you cash, caj, cas (like, short for casual?) people doing a movie and popcorn or dinner at a pub. equal opportunity, folks!
i'd have to say, the dressed down is more my speed. we'll see what valentine's day holds though. (right, steve?! WE WILL SEE WHAT VALENTINE'S DAY HOLDS.) one thing's for certain... last year's valentine's day will not be hard to top.
do you have some crazy plans? or a special outfit? or are you a v-day hater? i know... it's a thing to hate v-day. and, i mean, i get it. but i still want a chocolate covered strawberry or two or ten.










































love it all. that purple dress looks awesome on you.
ReplyDeleteI adore both looks.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! :)
I am definitely more of a caj girl myself. It'll be a good v-day if the baby sleeps through dinner (or at least lets us put her down for a bit) so my husband and I can sit and have a meal together for once. We usually have to tag team dinner these days :)
ReplyDeleteI love both outfits! I will probably be doing a more casual outfit :) my boyfriend and I will be making dinner at home!!!
ReplyDeletehahaha... in a recent post i was trying to write 'caj' too and couldn't figure out how to spell it!
ReplyDeletehappy v-day :)

The only thing we've got planned is a dinner out at a tapas restaurant, but nothing to wear. I could use that purple dress KTHNX.
ReplyDeleteI love the casual vibe! Perfectly put together..all the best for the 14th! Hope it's more of a success!
ReplyDeleteDiggin the caj look, but also the swanky one. I don't really know what we're doing. We alternate years planning stuff and last year was my turn, with a scavenger hunt and homemade quesadillas in a fort in my dorm room. All I'm saying is that Ben better bring it this year.
ReplyDeleteThat purple dress is my fav.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm loving the boots. Where from?

@erin, i remember those days! don't worry - they don't last forever!
ReplyDelete@jackie, that's so fun. hope he does bring it!
@desert girl, famous footwear - old, but i'm pretty sure they have similar things now! by carlos santana.
we are delaying our valentines day celebrations do no dress up or dress down for me on the day...oh well
ReplyDeletebut i love the casual look--i am more that sort of girl i think.
dressed down, definitely.
ReplyDeleteas for v-day, i still like it. i am not about going out for dinner on the day of though, crowded restaurants, set menus, no thanks... but give me some home made chocolate covered strawberries and a bottle of wine and i am set.
Love both looks but the dressed down one is particularly awesome!
ReplyDeleteLove the red tights with the purple dress, but the skirt is really pretty too.
ReplyDeleteHope you will have a nice valentine day regardless of the outfit :)
I love the casual look. I always think I love going fancy but then when we get there I feel out of place. I'm definitely a pub girl - or even make dinner and open a nice bottle of wine at home girl.

I love to dress up and go to a fancy restaurant. But most of all I love getting them chocolate-covered strawberries. Hubby gets them for me, every year:)

dressed down hands down!
Love the casual look....especially that red skirt. It looks long on you, so I'm sure it would be dragging on me...short girl problems! :) happy valentines!
ReplyDeleteLoving the purple and red together!
ReplyDeleteI feel like people shorten casual to "cazh"... not that that makes any more sense!
ReplyDeleteLoved your outfit choices!
ReplyDeleteA dress and tights always made a good combo for me while in the States ;)

I love how you look in those maxi skirts, makes me want to give them a try. I'm short so not sure if they'd look as nice on me though. What type of shoe do you pair with a maxi skirt?
ReplyDelete@krista, maxis are theee best! this time, cowboy boot but anything--flats, boots, sandals...

ReplyDeleteLove the outfits, both are adorable! Anything can top our Valentine's Day from last year too because my hub was in Afghanistan and we didn't get to talk but this year it'll be great just to hang out, give each other our homemade gifts and snuggle up on the couch to a rented movie! Hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteah!!! I remember reading about your v-day last year.
ReplyDeleteshitty. (laugh.)
Simon had to stay late and do a cs and I was unreasonably pissed.
So .... cubic Z this year, maybe?
hope its better for you guys!!!
(and you know you look bomb! how could you not?)
I vote down.
ReplyDeleteAlso I'm guessing that jacket is no longer available?
Not that we have a Target...duh.
Dressed down is totally me too! Love that! Is that skirt recent?? I'm gonna hit up Target at lunch SINCE I"M FINALLY BACK TO WORK AND EASTON BACK TO SCHOOL!!!!! hooray hooray hooray! Hopefully that was our germ quota of the year!
ReplyDeleteAnywho...love them both. And...our valentines...Hockey Game-GO PREDS! Not exactly what I had in mind...but it will have to work.
I hope Steve hits a home run this year with Valentines! ;)
Love both looks on you but my fave is the dressed down option. You can seriously rock a maxi skirt like NO other!
ReplyDeleteloving that maxi look!
