Top || Skirt || Heels || Handbag
Whether you say love, amour (in French), amore (in Italian), liebe (in German), or karlek (in Swedish), February is the month for you! Maybe it’s being in the city, but this is the first Valentine’s Day in a long time that I’m actually in the spirit! Mt husband and I have never been big to celebrate the day, but I’ve found myself grabbing each and every red item in my closet to style.
Who knew that nautical could also be so romantic? I am no stranger to sharing my favorite navy and red combinations, but this ensemble may actually be the best yet! This red skirt, from H&M, has become a closet staple recently. The elastic waist band and pleated design makes it as flattering as it is versatile.
The real show-stopper is this top from Boden. I mean honestly, can it get anymore perfect? Any shirt with navy and white stripes instantly wins my heart, but the glittery lip print really puts me over the edge. It’s obviously perfect for Valentine’s Day, but I venture to guess that it can be worn all year long. For example, in the summer you can pair it with this crisp pair of white chino shorts from J. Crew. At under $60, it’s a great little tee to add to your closet for a touch of sass and making a statement!
Two more days until Valentine’s Day means two more days of showing off red, romantic looks. I’ve really underestimated how much I love wearing red and may need to swap it to my signature color!
Love from NYC,
Katie
