Hello, ruffles and florals and tulle and lace. If you picture soft, feminine details and flowing fabrics when you think of Valentine’s Day, you’ve come to the right place.

Cute and Comfortable

@clairerose

Are you staying in this year for dinner at home? Maybe you’re cooking together or planning a sunset picnic or fun game night? Whatever your plans, keeping it low-key doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style. Choosing an unexpected sweater or classic cute-top-and-jeans still makes the day feel special while remaining comfortable enough for any activity.

Don’t fret. We saved the best for last. Your GNO vibe is all about fun—think bold color, chain details, embellishments, and cutouts. Whatever makes you feel your best and allows you to dance, dine, and laugh comfortably. This hot pink Cult Gaia top was made for a night out on the town, while the Alix NYC bodysuit is guaranteed to get compliments. Get ready for a night of photos, fun, and memories with your friends, which is always worth celebrating.
