How was everyone’s Valentine’s? Ours was decidedly low-key, we wanted to keep it easy and simple. So simple that it involved pizza that neither one of us prepared. But one of us did order it…from an app. Okay so we are not great at romance but we do love each other and we do love watching The Office on Netflix together while splitting a pizza and a bottle of wine and if that isn’t romantic, then I don’t know what is. We are date goals, I know.Â
While we didn’t go all out with roses and chocolates and gifts, I did however dress for Valentine’s because any day that I can rock pink, I will. It is especially welcome on Valentine’s. Â I couldn’t resist this precious pink sweater with the pleats underneath when I saw it. I feel like an adult ballerina which is always a good feeling. A lightweight sweater is always a nice transition into spring, for those days that don’t quite cooperate with my preference of 75 degrees and no wind, no rain, and limited humidity so my hair works. That’s not asking too much now is it? I don’t think so either.Â
Back to winter to spring transition dressing, I’ve been reaching for all sorts of lightweight jackets lately like this off white one. It’s such a nice transition from winter coats; sometimes I feel as if they cover my whole vibe. Jackets seem to add to the vibe of my outfit, rather than take it away. I love having that extra layer in those in between seasons, for warmth of course, but if I’m being honest it’s mainly for style. Let’s be honest — it’s always about style.

Sounds like a good Valentines! I think low-key, unexpected things are better than the all out “romantic”thing! Love the pleats and the rose color 🙂

My hubs and I spent Valentine’s evening making paninis & watching The Office as well! Because what is more romantic than Jim & Pam?!
Also, LOVE cupcakes and cashmere. You might have persuaded me to get this jacket. 😉 So adorable!
The pleats are adorable on this top!

Girl, we drank a bottle of Champs while eating eating pasta and watching the slam dunk contest on Saturday night. I high-fived my husband and told him we won Valentine’s Day. (On actual Valentine’s Day? We made a quiche and took a nap. #romance)
Absolutely love those layered pleats — and the feminine hues with that pink background! Gorgeous!

Aw, that actually does sound like date goals to me! I think the roses and chocolate are sweet as a tradition, but, I would pick pizza and Netflix over that any day. Love your pink look, and glad you both had a lovely V Day 🙂

I love this look so much – light and airy, and perfect for transitioning weather. A few days ago it was -12 up here in Boston and now it’s going to be 50 degrees. Queue outfit panic mode.
Love how girly and chic this outfit is! The color of the sweater is gorgeous!
