7 Perfect Low-Key Ways to Dress for Valentine’s Day
I’ve rounded up 7 low key style tips to help you dress for Valentine’s Day without compromising your personal style.
I have never been the type of person to dress for a holiday, especially if it was valentine’s day and I was single. It felt a bit cringe to be decked out in hearts or roses, but in this new fashion era of mine Iβve decided to embrace a different perspective. Instead of completely shying away from festive attire, Iβve opted for subtle yet chic touches that reflect the essence of Valentine’s Day without being over the top.
The key to achieving this aesthetic is with accessories. Think a red baseball cap, a pair of heart shaped earrings, or a sleek red clutch. These understated accessories allow me to nod to the holidays theme without compromising my personal style ethos.Β

A red baseball cap is the perfect accessory to subtly dress for valentines day. To style wear your favorite pair of jeans with a basic t-shirt or sweater in a neutral tone. Add in some simple gold or silver jewelry, nothing over the top or flashy. For your shoes you can take the look a step further with red sneakers or make it more dressy with a pair of black leather booties.
