Be My (Warm) Valentine

Hi, y’all!  Valentine’s Day is coming up fast and I want to discuss a couple of tricks I have to stay warm this holiday season while still being able to wear the perfect outfit.

Let’s be honest- Valentine’s Day is in the middle of February and many of us live in frigid climates where the thought of bare legs or arms makes us want to grab a fuzzy blanket and cuddle up on the couch.  But who doesn’t want to wear their favorite skirt or dress, put on some nice heels and head out like it’s summer?  I know I sure do!

One thing I always put on when I’m wearing a skirt in winter is nude tights- adding even the thinnest of layers keeps you much warmer.  Nude tights also have the benefit of making your legs look perfect and airbrushed- no splotchy, white winter legs for you!

I also make sure to add a nude cami under my top- I do this all winter and it makes a huge difference.  Adding a tight layer keeps your body heat in and it’s so fitted you don’t even know you’re wearing one!

So this Valentine’s Day I dare you to bring out one of your favorite skirts, pair it with one of you favorite tops, grab some pearls and heels and walk outside like it’s not freezing!  With my couple of tips you will look amazing while remaining warm and comfortable.

I hope y’all have a wonderful Valentine’s Day!  What special outfit do you plan on wearing?

P.S.  My top is from J.Crew- you can find this year’s version here.  I made my skirt but you can find a very similar style from ModCloth here.  I originally bought my pearl cluster necklace from Charming Charlie- you can find a similar style here.  My shoes are Betsey Johnson from Macy’s and can be found here.  I have also blogged about these shoes before found here and here– can you tell that I’m obsessed with these shoes yet?!
