Forever 21 blazer, vintage skirt (into a dress), Zara belt, Nine West platform heels

Just some shots of the outfit I wore before I took Pilot, le boyfriend, out to a small celebratory Valentine's Day dinner yesterday (my treat!). Red is a color I've never really gravitated to, and as I always like to be appropriately attired, I donned this vintage skirt and pulled it up to make a dress, complete with flirty skater pleats. Nothing too fancy or flashy here, just a classic dolled up date night look!

So what are your plans today? It's my mother's birthday, so Pilot and I are taking her and my father out to a dinner and show tonight, which was why we had a tiny celebration yesterday, rather than tonight. Although I vehemently agree with Leslie Knope that Galentine's Day is a very real holiday (because I love my ladies and you, of course!), I disagree that the actual Valentine's Day is for romantic love. I think V-Day is a day for overall love (i.e. love to your less annoying co-workers, to the neighbor that doesn't take your parking space, to my best friend aka my cat, etc). And if that doesn't make you feel better... remember that tomorrow is 50% of all those tacky pink and red wrapped candies and chocolates! xo

  1. Hiii Sabrina! Finally have a chance to write or comment you back! :D Thanks for your sweet awesome words you left on my blog! ♥ :)

    Happy Valentine's day to you & your bf! Cute look, and that's pretty cool that you turned the skirt into a dress, I think it looks better worn as a dress than a skirt. :) Also love the belt. And oh wow 2 holidays in one day! Happy Birthday to your mom! :D And LOL GALENTINE'S DAY IS SOOO GENIUS!!! LOL LOOOOVE PARKS & REC!!! I laughed when I read the image, I love it! :D ♥

  3. Awww Sabby pooh! You look fabulous! I love the red dress and the red lipstick. So glad you are playing with colors because you look lovely in them...and did I say red is your color?

    I agree with you on V-day...and I think it's just a silly man made holiday/commercial gimmick to make money and to make men panic (lol)....but I guess it does remind us to love our loves ones and don't take them for granted. It goes for our pets, our parents, our friends and our SO. Speaking of parents, I'm so glad to hear you and Pilot is taking your mommy out for her b-day. Hope you guys have a lovely evening! :) xoxo
