Whether you’re planning a candle-lit dinner date, a night out with friends or a ‘me’ day in the city, we know you’ll take a shine to something special in our edit of Valentine’s Day outfit ideas.
FALL IN LOVE WITH OUR DESIGNER OUTFIT IDEAS
The most romantic day of the calendar year is approaching and the cold winter is warmed with feelings of love and romance. Store window displays are decorated with red and pink hearts and Valentine’s Day cards are flying off the shelves. While some may revel in the joy and fuzzy feelings this holiday brings, there are many who haven’t yet been struck by Cupid’s arrow, but that’s perfectly fine, too. Whether you have a reservation at that new restaurant in the East Village or you’re going out with your gang in SoHo, dress with confidence on February 14 with DOORS NYC’s cute outfits for Valentine's Day.
An Art Gallery Exhibition
A gallery is a great low-key choice either solo or with a date on February 14; you can quietly admire the paintings or strike conversation over abstract masterpieces. New York winters are notoriously cold, so it’s important to invest in a warm, well-made coat to complement all your luxury outfits. Opt for this two-in-one reversible shearling jacket by Ukrainian brand KULAKOVSKY, which is suitable for temperatures as low as -68°F. Practical and on-trend, KRIS MARAN’s cargo pants complement the warm hue and are perfect for walking around the city.
Treat Yourself to a ‘Me’ Day
Regardless of your relationship status, this is a date for one we can all get on board with because self-love is the most important love of them all. Take some time to yourself to indulge in some retail therapy, have a facial or relax at a spa. Who says you can’t squeeze in all three? When shopping for the daytime, opt for classy Valentine's Day outfits that are both stylish and comfortable, such as NOCTURNE’s double-breasted jacket and pants suit. Tuck in a simple white T-shirt, switching it for a cami top in the evening.
An Evening Out with Friends
Valentine’s Day shouldn’t discriminate and we’re here for all kinds of love and relationships, from platonic to romantic and everything between. If you have plans to hit up happy hour with your gang, why not make a bit of extra effort? Who knows, you may even be struck by Cupid’s arrow and meet the future love of your life. OMELIA’s denim shirt is reworked with sparkling diamanté fringing for a touch of glamour and the oversized fit falls nicely over these bike shorts by French brand MARINE HENRION.
A Takeout for Two
Even if you plan on ordering takeout to your apartment, who says you can’t dress up for your improvised candle-lit date? We’ve chosen something cute and playful for this Valentine's Day dinner outfit, which ticks all the heart-shaped boxes. There are endless styling possibilities for this pink sweater by New York knitwear label PH5, we’ll be tucking ours into baggy high-rise jeans with sneakers on casual days. On this occasion, we have paired it with ETÉREA’s faux-leather pants which feature fun heart cutouts. A spritz of A.N.OTHER’s unisex woody fragrance will ensure you smell good as well as looking great.

For those planning a weekend getaway, February 14th gives you an excuse to swap the city for the fresh countryside air upstate.
