Valentine’s Day: Date Ideas

Happy Valentine’s Day! Looking for Valentine’s Day date ideas? Try one of the fun and romantic dates below.

Dinner Date

If you want a dinner date, but don’t want to go out, try cooking at home. You can cook the meal yourself or cook together. Or why not make dinner at home, but go out for dessert? If you want to go out. wine tastings are something different than the traditional dinner date.

Ice Skating

Ice skating is a great date idea for the winter months. Find a local skating rink or an outdoor skating rink if you can.

Outdoors Date

Why not look at the stars together? Or watch the sunrise or sunset. Whether it is going camping, hiking or just finding a nice place for a picnic, going out in nature is a great way to spend time together.

Watch a Movie

Go out to see a movie or watch your favorite romantic movie at home. Make homemade popcorn with candy hearts.

Game Night

Why not have some healthy competition? Play your favorite game such as truth or dare. You can write down different truths or dares on pieces of paper or just have each other switch off between asking truth or dare.

Valentine’s Day: Nail Art

Nail art is a fun way to dress up for Valentine’s Day. These are some fun nail art looks to try out

Why not paint heart balloons on your nails? Use pink and red hearts. Jin Soon Choi created the nail art look on the heart shaped right.

The left nail art image uses a dark red color with a kiss mark on the ring finger. The right nail art look forms a lip mark when you put the ring finger and thumb together

Why not paint hearts in a different color other than red? The nail art on the left uses green hearts on the tips. The upper right uses pink hearts on a blue background. The bottom right nail look uses bright neon colors and leopard print hearts.

Valentine's Day: Fashion and Beauty

Ready to get dressed up for Valentine's Day? Try one of the looks below.

Pops of red or pink are perfect for Valentine's Day. Try adding a bright red skirt to your outfit paired with a lacey pink top. For something that will keep you warmer, layer a red coat over your outfit.

UHearts are a classic way to dress up for Valentine's Day. Look for items with printed hearts. The photo on the left is from Wendy's Lookbook. The outfit on the right, from Little Blonde Book, pairs a heart print sweater with red boots.

These items contain lip prints instead of heart prints. I love the bold pink lip prints on the left. The outfi ton the right pairs a matching red skirt with a lip print sweater.

For makeup, try a classic red lip with winged eye liner.
