Date Night

Jackets-(Faux Leather)Forever 21 (Jean) Abercrombie & Fitch, Dress-French Connection (similar one here), Belt-J. Crew, Shoes-Dolce Vita, Clutch-Club Monaco, Ring-YSL, Earrings-H&M 

Inspired by my new Who What Wear book. I decided to ask on Facebook what looks you would like to see me style and I got a plethora of different responses. One look that many of you asked for was "date night". I can understand why this particular look would be in high demand, it's tricky. There are also a lot of different kinds of date nights. Is this a first date or a date with your significant other? I went with a little of both. For me, date night is a chance for my boyfriend and I to get out of our routine--a break from the endless nights of pajamas and dishes.

On date night you should feel stylish and pretty. I gravitate towards dresses since they make me feel flirty and feminine.Whether it's a first date or your weekly night out, this is a time you should feel sexy--so don't be afraid of high heels and shorter hemlines. If your going short on the bottom cover up on top and vice versa. Also, keep your look pretty and natural. This isn't the time to try a new hairdo or beauty routine. Last but not least make sure to have fun (check us out above).

Cute taylor!! I adore this looks!! That dress is amazing and i love how you made it boy friendly with a leather jacket and jean jacket. I feel like guys like girls who look pretty but approachable and feel like the jackets totally make this dress approachable. Just perfect!

this dress rocks! i totally agree with being covered up on either top or bottom and showing a little more skin on the opposite side (whichever you choose). love these tips and this look! it's always fun to be goofy :)

BrooklynBlonde said...

Ahh you look gorgeous in that dress showing off your killer legs!

Pamela said...

I'm delurking to tell you that a) this look is way hot and b) I love that you rock short skirts that show off your muscular legs. I'd love to see more posts about your exercise routine, because girl, you're doing something really right. :)

Roxy Te said...

Love the outfit! Perfect parts flirty and effortless. In an effort to run with the "dress for your man idea," I tried letting A pick my outfit for date night once. It was like watching a 5 year old trying to match but failing horribly hahaha I did keep some of his suggestions :)

Ronisha said...

Love your outfit... Nice!!

Va-va-voom! Check out those legs! You look amazing in these photos: beautiful, healthy and happy!

Leather, sequins and denim? Yes, yes and yes! I love how you styled this dress. I probably would have kept it simple feeling that the sequins was flashy enough, but I adore this layered look!

Meredith O'Brien said...

Awesome look!!! Love the color combo, mix of leather/sequins, and all the layers! Juxtapositioning goodness!

Tara Y. said...

Love this outfit. I admire the way you have been layering your look lately. Very inspiring and a great way to use more pieces in your closet!

Lemon Drop Love said...

Yippy! The date night look made it on the blog :) I love this look. The sparkle brings just enough flirty to the ourfit without being over the top. This definetly fits the bill. Classy, flirty and casual all at the same time. Love it :) I like the rule of: if you are showing legs that cover up a little on top and visa versa.

Great post! Thanks.

I am loving this date night feature! Love how much thought into it. Date nights are hard because you really are trying to impress your date but maintain a sense of self and style while you're at it.

The double layer jacket look is cool. Thanks for sharing. It tones down the sequins and still looks dressed up.
