Valentine’s Day Beyond Red Romance

Love just makes the world a happier place. From cupid and chocolates to soulmates, in 2020, there’s so much more beyond the known trajectory of ‘boy meets girl and falls in love’. 

Way before Taylor Swift sang “loving him was red”, the colour has always resonated with the feeling and meaning of love. Love is beautiful; love is also imperfect. But is love monochrome? The pride flag paints a veritable rainbow to define that ‘love is love’. Starting the first red stripe that means life, orange for healing, yellow inspiring the sunlight, green that is nature, blue for harmony and purple for spirit. That said, love is all the colours that you see on the spectrum; including black. Because, why not! It’s deep and also sensuous just like red. In the world of glam, black unapologetically replaces red for Valentine’s like an elevated game. So, show some love to black this Valentine’s to be a trailblazer. Trade red sweatshirts for a black leather jacket, because love can be rebellious too!

Moving on, this holiday dedicated to ‘love’, Valentine’s Day is special for everyone. After all, who doesn’t love some love in the air? Whether y’all are new blossoming couples, hopeless romantics, single self-loving women or just someone who rolls eyes at the mushy affair surrounding Valentine’s week, it’s guaranteed you’re heading out to revel in the celebrations. Be it a romantic dinner at your favourite restaurant, candlelight set up at the backyard or simply a girl squad vacation, we’ve scoured the looks that will make your beau swoon on this eventful day. 

Dinner Night

If you’re expecting him to pop the question at the dinner, dress your glamorous best for the big surprise. Slip into a sexy form-fitted dress for the night and slide on your tallest heels to win him over! 

Dreamy Backyard Setup 

With such a whimsical and romantic setup and waltzing across the lawn to your favourite love tunes: it just can’t get dreamier! Go for an embellished skater dress to look equal parts sexy and playful for the special date. 

A Romantic Escape 

Nothing gets better than a romantic getaway exploring the city or simply sipping coffee at a gipsy cafe with your better half. A flirty top and skirt guarantee your date will have eyes only for you! 

Valentine’s Eve
