THE PINK AND RED COLOR COMBO

Newburyport, MA

The pink and red combination started to percolate on my Instagram feed several springs ago and while I tend to forget how pretty the pairing can be, February feels like the right month to give it a try. After all, the color duo reminds me of candy hearts (yum!) and is truly perfect for Valentine's Day style.  It's equal parts bold and energetic! Plus, it demands attention in all the right ways, for all the right reasons, especially if you're looking to give your FaceTime date outfit a boost.

Don't be daunted by this power duo and just do what I did with this outfit here. Pick up pieces that combine the two tones already to make things simple on yourself. This cozy Anthropologie sweater is approachable and great for a takeout date or cozy movie night. For an easy way to test out the pink and red color mix, I've paired similar sweaters in varying price points at the end of this post.

DATE NIGHT STYLE (MINIMAL EFFORT REQUIRED)

Arts District, Los Angeles

Whether you're heading out with your latest match on Bumble or grabbing dinner with your longtime sweetheart, it's always fun to dress it up a bit on date night (especially this time of year). And if you're like me, you've probably spent one too many nights tearing through your wardrobe to find the perfect look. You know, that "I didn't try too hard but I'm here to impress" kind of ensemble? That's what we're all looking for—the little effort, big wow outfit. 

So what are some of my easy date-night looks? Honestly, I look to Reformation for all my inspo lately. From jumpsuits to sweet little dresses and tops, they have styles that are classic yet undeniably sexy. This ruffly velvet top works really well with ripped jeans and if you're going on a day-to-night event, toss on a dress like this with a cropped denim jacket and booties. Need an office-to-drinks ensemble? This jumpsuit I wore in a previous post is just perfect.

While I can't guarantee that your date is going to be great, I can tell you that these looks will make you feel 100% every time. Amen for Reformation!
