Cozy and Casual Valentine’s Day Outfits
For those of us with cozy, casual plans, these separates are great options. For the tops, pair them your bottoms of choice and you’re good to go! As far as jeans go, I am loving these mid-rise horseshoe jeans from Gap (I have them in three colors!) and these barrel legged jeans from Ruti. Either would work with these tops, with the Gap style offering a more casual vibe.

For a slightly more elevated option, I love the Doen Henri Top. I have it in black and love it — so easy to style, and you can dress it up or down. It’s pretty true to size, but size up if you prefer a looser fit.
Dressy Valentine’s Day Outfit Ideas
If you’re planning a fancy night out for Valentine’s this year, here are four of the dressier options you might enjoy. The Hill House Ellie Nap Dress is a go-to of mine for just about any occasion, and this pretty red style is perfect for Valentine’s Day. You can read my full review of this Hill House dress with sizing details here.

While I definitely tried to stick with reds and pinks for this Valentine’s Day style guide, I wanted to include a few great options in other colors, too. Obviously, I gravitate towards blues and greens (my favorite color!), so this Abercrombie & Fitch mini dress caught my eye.
Valentine’s Day Beauty and Accessories
Last but not least, here are a few great beauty, accessories, and lounge styles you can incorporate into your Valentine’s Day look this year. If you’re a fan of bows like I am, I just love the simple Hill House Ashley Hair Bow as a final touch on any date night look. Pair it with some pretty jewelry (like these earrings!) and you’re good to go!

As for beauty, I have been loving this Valentino blush lately. It is a blush and eyeshadow two-in-one, but I just use it as a blush. It pairs nicely with my regular makeup favorites, and adds a bit of whimsy, especially when I use it with this blush stick. Lastly, while I generally opt for green nail polishes, I do love a good oxblood color, so this OPI We the Female Nail Polish is calling my name!
