DRESS TO IMPRESS ON THE

 FLIRTIEST DAY OF THE YEAR.

MEN

<<Be handsome. Go for a sleek and sophisticated look with dark colors and sharp cuts. Be classy and let your outfit show that you're a gentleman. Don't just love the one you're with, love what you have on.

Impress with shoes. Try something different by wearing sophisticated shoes that will dress up your outfit. Don't worry, she'll notice.

Go for a grandpa cardigan. Take some advice from an old folk and look rich in a comfy cardigan that will invite a little snuggling.

Basic is best. Resort back to a classic button-up, but find one that stands out and is in a strong color.

Pair it with a watch. Wear a watch that looks more expensive and isn't your typical hiking watch. Let it look sleek.

Get comfy in cords. If you want to be semi-casual, wear corduroys in a color that will compliment your outfit instead of clashing with it.

WOMEN

>>Be pretty. Be flirty, but classy. Be careful on how much skin you show and don't wear the same attire you'd wear out to a club. Show him your softer side.

Try ruffles. Only choose one item in your outfit that has ruffles so you don't overdo it.

Say Yes to red. It's cute to be playful with V-DAY colors and rich patterns that celebrate the day.

Add accents of lace. There's no better day to wear a little lace than on the Day of Love.

Be comfortable. Don't look like you can't move in your outfit. You can still look beautiful by trying silky dresses that have movement.

Don't be afraid to be daring. Jumpers are the latest and greatest of the trends, but there's no reason to avoid them on V-DAY. You can still look sexy and sleek.
