Fabulous (Iridescent) Find of the Week

Iridescent Oblong Ring from Forever21

This week's fabulous find is from Forever21. A few months ago I talked about this sparkling statement ring in a post about glittery jewelry. I originally saw this gorgeous ring on Forever21's website but did not buy it. Then while I was shopping at the mall the other day I found it in the store and bought it for only $3.80! This ring pairs nicely with a lot more than you might think. I've already worn it twice since I bought it two days ago. You can purchase this ring in size 6, 7, or 8 and in two colors, pink or ivory right here

Did you get asked on a last minute V-day date? Before you go out and buy a whole new outfit take a look at your favorite items in your closet first. Here are some fun, flirty, and feminine ways you can update your favorite essentials into a charming Valentine's Day ensembles. 

Update: Your Favorite Little Black Dress


Start with your favorite LBD, whether its fitted, flowy, short, or long. Add shiny red lipgloss, classic red pointy-toe pumps, and a gold, sequined clutch and you have yourelf a simple yet glam Valentine's Day outfit perfect for a night out.

Update: A Casual Denim Shirt or Jacket 


Get this feminine, casual look by starting off with your most lived in and loved denim shirt or jacket. Layer under this shirt or jacket a fun light pink graphic tank. Throw on your fave dark wash or black skinny jeans and a girly pair of sky-high wedges. I love these ones because the color and bow detail are perfect for Valentine's day. To top off your flirty casual look put some volumizing mascara on your upper lashes only. 

Update: An Edgy Leather Jacket


Take your favorite faux leather coat and a pair of skinny jeans (red ones would look awesome). Accessorize this basic combo with a fun scarf, high-heeled ankle booties, and dark red nail polish (the name of the one shown is Valentine!). This pairing will give you a romantic, edgy outfit.

3 Valentine's Day Looks Under $100 from H&M

I absolutely love the dressing room feature on H&M's website. It is such a great tool for me to use to share fun looks with you guys. I have shared a few outfits using this tool before but, today I decided to share three looks under $100 that would be perfect for Valentine's Day. 


School Day - from H&M

I love this look because it is so comfortable without being sloppy looking. The black skinny jeans are classy and super cute paired with a pink shirt and polka dot flats. The silver bracelets add a touch of sparkle and the denim vest adds interest and some edge. A messy bun and, smokey eye makeup, and nude lips add to this overall edgy look.


Girls' Night Out - from H&M

 This look would be perfect for a night out with your friends on Valentine's Day. The lace top is feminine and the dark wash skinny jeans are dressier than a pair of light wash ones. The flats are stylish and a more comfortable option than heels. The spiked necklace adds edge and the clutch is big enough to fit all your essentials without getting in the way of having fun. A messy bun and hot pink lips are fun and festive touches.


Dinner Date - from H&M

PRODUCTS IN THIS LOOK:

2-pack Tights 40 DenierPumpsDressBeltDenim Jacketwww.hm.com

This outfit is more of a formal look but definitely not over the top. The black tights matched with black high heels will lengthen legs and slim you out. The color of the dress is the perfect hue for a Valentine's Day dinner. I added a skinny leopard print belt to highlight the waist and add a little bit of personality. The denim jacket will keep you warm and will also keep the look casual. Top it off with bouncy curls and red lips for a lovely V-Day dinner date look.
