OK gents, with the big day around the corner... Actually it is right in front of us at this point, it is time to talk key wardrobe elements for Valentine's Day date night.
Let’s keep it simple and
classic this year. Whether you stay in and entertain your loved one at home or
bring them out to the cineplex to take in an Oscar nominated flick, these no
fuss, must have items will help you freshen up your style for
the big night. Remember a little effort goes a long way. Read on to find our
Valentine’s Day dressing suggestions and what wearing them will tell her. Oh and if she
wants to know what to get you for a V-Day gift, just send her this post and tell her it’s a gift guide.
First up the sweater. That pesky groundhog seems to like the
cold and has ordered up a wintry February, so make sure you have a warm one.
Don’t worry, she can peel it off you later. Keeping with the colour scheme of
Valentine’s Day we love these red toned sweaters from retailer
Tristan.
Left - “I’m
taking you to your fav casual candle lit restaurant.”
Centre - “Hey
sexy, I want to kiss all night.” (insert mischievous smile.)
Right - “Hey hun, I’m ready for whatever you want to do.
Tonight is all about you. Let me grab your coat.”
Bonus, they are ALL on sale. Hit them up in store or online
here.
Next up are your shoes. It is a known fact that women check
out a man’s shoes the same way a man checks out a woman’s… smile. Either of
these pairs from
Ecco will help you step out for the evening on the right foot.
Top – “I’m going to be your urban prince charming tonight
and I look forward to eventually meeting your mother. When is she in town next?”
Bottom – “You, me, that pizza place around the corner we
keep meaning to try and all your favourite toppings. Then back here to watch your
favourite chick flick. PS, I brought you a cupcake.”
Don’t forget to add pops of colour and bring a little
extra power.
Express has the perfect accessories to finish off your look. From
socks, to watches and even portable power cards. They have you set.
Socks – “What, you thought I was going to wear boring black
socks? No way hun! I know what I'm doing here.”
Watch – “I’m going to be on time and I’m feeling a little
funky. Hey scrap the movie, let's go skating at city hall and hit up the modern
art exhibition at the gallery.”
Ultra Thin Power Card – “Damn, you look extra gorgeous
tonight. Let’s take a thousand selfies. I want the world to know you’re all
mine.”
Finally, we don’t know about you, but we
do wear our
sunglasses at night. OK well maybe not really. Grab a pair of these
Leisure Society sunglasses from
Josephson Opticians for Saturday morning when you run out to
Starbucks to grab her frappa cappa mocha whatever before she wakes up. Just
make sure you leave a cute note on the pillow so she knows where you have gone.
Top – “I’m feeling cool and confident and here comes my secret move.”
Middle – “I’m kinda bad ass. Well you let me pretend I am.”
Bottom – “Your killer sense of style is rubbing off on me.”
Happy Valentine’s Day gentlemen. Make Friday night special
for her, because she makes every other day of the year special for you.
