10 Valentine’s Day Outfit Inspiration You Can Copy!

 

10 Valentine’s Day Outfit Inspiration You Can Copy! Outfit inspiration is what you’re looking for? I’ve got you covered! 

I wanted to put together outfits from my Valentine’s clothing rack that I shared the other day on Instagram. You could view it HERE if you missed it. It’s a great way to help you create outfits fast and use pieces in your closet you forget about. I’ll talk more about creating a seasonal clothing rack at another time as I know from all the feedback, this is a topic you want more of. (remember I did one for Fall and Christmas) 

 Creating Valentin’s outfits can be as easy as grabbing your red and pink items and adding fun accessories. I’ve shown below outfit creations from old pieces I’ve collected over the years and added new pieces. These outfits were created to be easy for you to copy by shopping items in your own closet. However, I did link the outfits if you wanted to add in a few new pieces. Some items may be sold out or no longer available. If that was the case, I linked similar items. 

Under each outfit, I broke it down to a “menu,” if you will, to help you grab the like items and style the look from my inspiration. I hope this inspires you to go into your closet and create a fun look or two for the month of love.

Valentine's Day Outfit Inspiration

Clothing Menu:

Jumpsuit cropped blazer, beret, heart necklace, and sexy heels. (jumpsuit is Eliza J and from last year)

Hoping to help you get the most out of your closet, use the above closet menus and start creating your festive outfits. Did you notice some of the pieces on repeat? Good, I wanted to show you ways to wear the same item of clothing. It’s important to get multiple uses out of your purchases.

What I am actually wearing this Spring…. Living in What I am actually wearing this Spring…. Living in Utah as a over 50 Wife, Mom, COCO and content Creator💋

Utah Weather in the Spring 🌱
Calls for layers….

Spring weather here can be “Schizophrenic” from a blizzard  To sunny and 60 in a day!

Although we’ve had an unusually strange winter this year, Spring still calls for layers.

Bundling up for the morning, and being able to take pieces off throughout the day, makes a great tip for Utah Springs.

I like classic pieces, in light colors and weights, yet work when layered to keep you warm.

Pieces you can mix and match, great wardrobe builders and add some texture.

- lighter weight & color long Wool coat , looks chic over shoulders, yet not to hot when on (I have a rain coat too) 

-Classic trousers are still trending and a great option to look more polished, shades of cream, tan and camel are great for Spring (works well with pastels too)

- Light weight, thinner ribbed mock neck turtleneck. I love the feel and fit of these. Affordable too.

- Vest are a great Spring layer, and the large Plaid/check in neutral shades keeps in classic and add interest. Yet, light enough for spring for layering and not sweat to death 😂
(I love linen vests too) 

- Adding texture with a fluffy & light fur on one shoulder (well still be seeing fur details for Spring)  Draped on one shoulder does add heat, like wearing around your neck does.

- Classic jewelry in gold & silver mix… and yes, I layered and stacked it on… classic pieces & yet layered gives your look a little edge. 

- Western suede pointed toe booties, elongate the leg, add more texture and keep your feet warmer but not too warm. 

Do you need layers in the Spring where you live?

❤️Follow for more Spring layer Outfits…. I have several style, color and on trend. While classic looks coming your way….
