14 Valentine’s Day inspo looks to fall in love with

As Valentine’s Day beckons and plans for the day and gifts are lined up, the next thing to cross off your list is the OOTD. Red and pink hues would be the popular choices, traditionally being tied to romance and love. We find that the best way to nail the flirty colour is with soft fabrics like tulle and feathers. Not a fan of the girly hue? Fret not, we’ve got you covered with our list. Below, 14 fresh trends spotted on the streets illustrated by the most fashionable crowd.

#1 Flounce about in tulle

Lightweight, playful and cheekily sheer, pink tulle adds sartorial romance to your special #OOTD.

#2 Howdy, partner

Unleash the cowgirl—pair leather ranch boots with short shorts. Not your first time at the rodeo? Complete the look with a wide-brimmed hat.

#3 Fisherman’s friend

Love hats but looking for something more pared-down? Bucket hats to the rescue!

#4 Crowning band

Here’s a trend that even Blair Waldorf would approve of. Bring back the childhood accessory with a sartorial edge—choose one with a wide band for a grown-up twist.

#5 Shine bright in neon

If you haven’t already heard, neon is the new black. Go with highlighter brights for an eye-catching ensemble.

 

#6 Stand out in monotone

Pulling off a fully colour-coordinated outfit is next level chic. Instagram‘s Head of Fashion, Eva Chen does it like a pro in beige, with a knitted sweater, fringed blazer and wide-leg trousers.

#7 Living in harmony

One-up colour-coordination with hues from the same colour family. Moss, forest green and lime make a wonderful trio.

#8 Gaga for logomania

Pledge allegiance to your fashion bae. Model Ming Xi struts the streets of New York with a Fendi bustier layered over a turtleneck and high-waisted trousers.

#9 Soar in feathers

For a touch of luxury, reach for the feather trim. Vanessa Hong elevates a basic suit with pink plumage at the sleeves.

#10 Direct the gaze

Eyes up here! Statement dangly earrings will surely grab all the attention.

#11 Play matchy matchy

If there’s one day to get away with matching ensembles it’d be Valentine’s Day—and the newfound rule doesn’t only apply to SOs. Single ladies, if you’re out with your gal pals, create a theme for the night! Pictured here, Sisters Reese and Molly Blutstein double down on tie-dye.

#12 Clip it on

‘90s barrettes are making a comeback. This pearl-studded pair is a fresh take on the nostalgic trend.

#13 Roar in fierce prints

Whether you decide on tiger, cheetah or zebra, there’s no denying that animal prints serve up the heat.

#14 Pile on the bling

On this special day, more is more. Flaunt all your assets with layered jewellery — gold medallions are hot on trend.
