12 It Girl–Approved Looks That Are Perfect for Valentine's Day
And just like that, it's Valentine's Day again. Hopefully, you already have a reservation somewhere or plans to celebrate at home, but if you haven't even thought about what you're going to wear yet (*raises hand*), you've come to the right place. You still have a few days to order something if needed.
What better place to look for Valentine's Day outfit ideas than It girls, who always seem to have an occasion to dress up for? Wearing red and pink on Valentine's Day is the obvious route to take, so I chose a few looks with splashes of it. However, it would be far more interesting to wear something unexpected. That said, I love sweet touches like a bow in the hair or a romantic dress on the day of love, but the most important thing is to dress in a way that makes you feel comfortable and confident.
