The 1st day of February is here and it's the month for love! It's all about celebrating love for one another and most importantly ourselves. We also learn about the contributions that African Americans have made to our country. I am excited to say nonetheless. However, there is a major difference than the years before. We are still in the thick of COVID and the news is still dismal with reports of cases rising every day. Death toll statistics are presented every minute and every hour and it reminds me why I am still overly cautious to venture out into the world. This could certainly put a damper on any plans for Valentine's Day for sure. So what kind of plans can loved ones hope to carry out during this pandemic? Besides the obvious, there are those who still want to enjoy the build up to it if you will. Lol. I still fancy breakfast in bed, a dinner date, or watching a romantic movie. I found a great article with really fun and creative ideas. You can check it out here I listed my favorite 3 below.
Love Themed Baking: Because who doesn't love heart shaped cookies and chocolate brownies infused with liquor
Themed Cocktail Evening: Unwind with your favorite liquor of choice inspired by a romantic country you want to visit. Paris anyone?
Dinner Date: Invite your partner to a romantic dinner and get dressed up for the occasion
So what's a girl to wear with all of these choices? I have a few outfits in mind. Lol. A few of them come from our All Black Valentine's Day Collection The looks range from moderately sexy to overly sexy. The 1st one I would like to share is Aubrey. She is comfortable with her soft stretchy fabric. I love how this basic midi dress elevates to another level with the thigh high slit which can be adjusted with the adjustable drawstrings. I felt demure and sexy so I paired this outfit with my strappy sandals from Fashion Nova. The matte lipstick I am wearing is from UOMA and the color is 'Diana'. This brand is a new found love I happen to come across at my local Ulta's
What do you think of this outfit? Are you going to implement some of these ideas I've shared for your Valentine's Day? Comment below
