Valentine's Day Outfits

With Valentine's Day right around the corner having the perfect outfit for any occasion is a must. I came up with three different looks that are comfy, casual and of course, cute (the essentials for Valentine's Day, right?!). So whether you're cuddling up with your crush or having a girls night out, February 14th will be a day full of fashion.

Outfit #1. For this look I wanted something simple with a little sass! I began with a basic white long sleeve (Old Navy, $4.00) and a pair of LEI jeans (Goodwill, $5.00). For the sassy part, I added a pop of red (scarf, Dollar Tree $1.00) and tan booties (Gift). This outfit is great because all items can be found in your closet and dressed up to your desire.

 Outfit #2. This outfit is for all you girls that want to be super casual. I started with striped shirt (Charity Shop, $1.00) and dark wash jeans (Unknown). To finish up this look, I paired my red converse (Goodwill, $3.99) and a red beanie (Dollar Tree, $1.00). I like that this outfit can be worn anywhere and you still look put together and cute!

Outfit #3. I've been really into quilted vests recently so of course I created an outfit that include one! So to start off with a red vest (Charity Shop, $1.00). I added a chambray button up (Charity Shop, $1.00) underneath and paired that with black jeggings (Walmart, $4.00). To pull the look together I threw some red flats (Goodwill, $3.99) in the mix. I love how preppy this outfit it, by far my favorite! It keeps you warm and comfy but still looks chic!

3 Easy DIY Scarves

 Supplies Needed:

Scarves

Yarn

Needle (Optional)

Acrylic Paint

Paint Brush

Glue Gun

Pom Pom Ribbon

 Scarf #1.)

I took a gray circle scarf I got from Old Navy ($1.00) and embellished (fancy word for hot gluing) it with pom pom ribbon I found at Michaels ($1.39). This is a tedious process but in the end it's worth it. So Cute!

 Scarf #2.)

This cream colored scarf, found at a charity shop ($0.25), was in need of a serious upgrade. Adding a whimsical print like the hearts, via red acrylic paint, is just what it needed. I free handed mine, but feel free to use a stencil for the perfect heart. Also, this could be really sweet for the upcoming holiday (hint, hint)!

 Scarf #3.)

 Animal print is a trend that will forever be in style. However, this Old Navy ($1.00) circle scarf just wasn't doing anything for me. Cut in half and enhanced with fringe, this scarf is now worth every penny! Here's a tutorial on how to revamp a drab scarf to fab, in minutes, so easy!
