I really love Valentine's Day.
I just really love holidays in general.
The time leading up to the holiday is so much fun as plans are made and decor is hung.
I had all sorts of plans to decorate our little home in pink and red this year, but Hunter's books this semester costed more than ever, so I've been trying to cut back where I can.
We're also using a gift card we got for Christmas from my parents to go out to dinner (thanks mom and dad!) because Hunter's birthday is in a week, Oaklyn's birthday party is the next day, her actual birthday is two days later, and our anniversary is a week after that.
So... we need to pick and choose where we want to put our money haha.
This time is so crazy for us!
I'm so excited to go out to dinner with Hunter!
We rarely get time to go out alone.
And when I say it's rare, I mean RARE!
We don't have much family near us and we really don't want to pay for a babysitter.
Especially since I trust hardly anyone with Oaks...
So whenever we do get to go somewhere just the two of us, I get so excited!
I'm so glad Aro and Company made it easy for me to pick an outfit to wear... scratch that, TWO outfits!
I'm in love with both of these outfits.
I think I'll wear the striped shirt during the day, and the dress when we go out to eat :)
This striped shirt is seriously cute.
I'm a lover of all things striped and the elbow patches just make it that much more adorable.
This shirt is incredibly soft and comfortable, I could wear it to bed!
I don't know what it is about elbow patches, but whenever I see a shirt, sweater, dress, anything with them, I die.
Especially little man outfits! But, that's not what we're talking about here ;)
I paired mine with high waisted jeans because I'm a sucker for high waisted clothes and some booties.
I put my hair in a messy french braid and curled a few pieces.
I also added a little red lipstick to be that much more festive ;)
Now this dress, again... comfortable!
I used to hate wearing dresses... did I just say that?
Really though, I did!
Why?
Because they were uncomfortable to me.
I felt like I was always pulling them down and adjusting things.
Not this dress!
It's a midi length so you don't have to worry that anything is showing and the material is seriously so comfortable.
It has a cute cutout in the back as well.
The color is a deep maroon and even though it isn't a "traditional" Valentine's color... I still love it!
I'll be wearing this dress plenty more times.
What are your plans for Valentine's Day? Do you have any fun traditions? What are you wearing?
Make sure to head over to Aro and Company for a festive outfit!
