Eight Date Night Outfits for Ladies and Gentlemen

 

February is a busy month for pastry shops, fashion stores, restaurants and florists as many celebrate love. Red colours define the skyline or so we think as many people gravitate towards the colour of the season. As you rearrange your wardrobe for work and date nights this month, let’s walk you through a maze of ideas to spark some chemistry and self-confidence.

 

Hot Chocolate 

 

Create a collection in your wardrobe called ‘Hot Chocolate’ comprising silk shirts or crop tops and chocolate midi skirts. If the weather is freezing where you live, get yourself cream-coloured sweater, dark chocolate pencil skirts and a chocolate coloured suede bag,  elongated box bag or acrylic clutch purse.

 

Red Hot

Red outfits for male and female

Little red dress is booting up for a comeback this month. Ladies love them with frills on the hemline, asymmetric slit shoulder and well, bodycon which by the way is only suited for ladies with slim waist. If you are large around the waistline, try a short balloon red dress or  pleats please. Gentlemen, try a red loose-fit quilted jacket with white t-shirt and a black pair of trousers.

 

Black Revolution 

 

Sometimes, you just don’t want to join the bandwagon. Your dress code as a professional forbids you to appear in red. Ask a lawyer. Or better still a judge. Then, you can create a black ensemble: mock neck applique detailed dress, romantic black chiffon dress, ruched black dress, mesh tie-neck ruffle dress, black sequin skirt. For gentlemen, white shirts still work with black pants or stick to the black on black code.

 

Lace and Leather

Pair a lace blouse under a leather jacket for an edgy look that can be worn from day to night. Try a lace blouse with leather pencil skirt for an elegant look. Guys, mesh and leather pants are the next look of dudes.

 

Denim Deviants 

 

Call this collection ‘Denim Deviants.’ Metallic denims give luxury vibes. They are rare finds in most stores but you can get them at…not telling. No free ads. Paris coated denim skirts or pants sure look good on young and young-at-heart women.

 

Embellished Ensemble 

 

The fear of losing pearls is one of the reasons why many don’t like to jump on this trend. Pearl-textured knit sweaters, rhinestone dresses, beaded blazers, embellished midi coats and skirts are great for a classy look- like a lady raised in a swathe of countryside. 

 

Geo print

This trend will run side-by-side with animal print for next spring and summer. Geometric patterns feature different mathematical objects, shapes or elements such as lines, squares, a triangle and a circle. Geometric print is more alluring in shirts or shirt dresses than blouses. But that’s just this writer’s opinion.

 

Go Tiger!

Fashion bloggers are predicting that zebra print will take over 2025. Leopard print is the flashy feline pattern that’s been the toast of celebrities and street style stars thus heralding the rise of the zebra print.
