Men’s style: what to wear on Valentine’s Day

 

Valentine is only once in a year, yeah just one chance to show her how much you truly love and care for her. You want to send her a flower with a greeting card or better still take her out on a fancy date. But what should you wear on such a special day?
Put in mind that a
Valentine’s Day outing is rarely formal rather it is casual and you don’t want to wear something outrageous or attention grabbing instead you should tone things down a little.
A smart looking outfit fit for a Valentine’s Day outfit should consist of the following;

1. A smart looking Blazer: Go blue, green or gray. Avoid wearing red or wine colored blazers since the day is already known to be red. Complement your blazer with a rose paisley pocket square or a simple red one. There might be rare cases where you might need to be formal, for example if you were invited to a formal occasion on Valentine’s Day. If the dress code is formal, go in a suit or tuxedo.

2. A fitted shirt: A French cuffed white shirt is however the most recommended for such an occasion as the Valentine’s Day night out with your date. Very traditional and predictable the French white shirt is, I must add; why not re-invent your style by wearing a pink or navy blue dress shirt? Ensure your cuff links are classy ones. A turn off is to wear multi-striped shirts with lots of colors making you look like a circus clown, go for a simple striped shirt instead.

3. Trousers: khaki, chino, jean or dress trousers great for valentine’s Day, but ensure it complements with other pieces on your outfit is of great importance. Remember it’s a night out with your woman and you want to impress her, make a wardrobe mistake and see the date go sour. Khaki, chino and jean go well with your dress trouser tucked in properly. Your dress trouser goes with a dress shirt to a casual shirt.

4. Shoes & Belts: A very important piece of your outfit. It is the first thing the eyes meet when it looks down on your figure. Formal shoes in black or brown are best recommended. Monk strap or loafers are also appropriate. Ensure your shoes are in good conditions and shining. It is not necessary the colors of your shoe and belt matches, try mixing things a bit.

5. The Valentine smell: looking sexy is also as important as smelling sexy too. You can stay on top of your game with classics like D&G, Armani Code, Chanel bleu, Marc Jacobs and many other fantastic fragrances.

Whichever way your style is, never fail to impress her. Tell us what you will be wearing on Valentine’s day.
