Valentine's Day is always a great excuse to dress up and wear the most stylish outfit you've been planning for I-don't-know-how-long. This special day screams hearts and red dresses for Valentine's Day, but in case this is not exactly the Valentine's Day outfit idea you're going for, your friendly little black dress got you girl!
Here are the reasons why you should opt for this classic dress this Happy Hearts Day.
1. It's a classy Valentine's Day outfit
Whether you're planning an intimate dinner for two, a Galentine's party, or just some alone time, the LBD is an obvious choice for Valentine's Day that calls for instant chic.
2. An LBD is a Valentine's Day dress that makes you look hotter
ICYDK, the color black has a slimming effect. Darker shades help you hide the little weight you've gained the past holidays, thus creating a slimming illusion. But hey, just so you know, you don't have to hide those extra pounds 'cause no matter what, you are beautiful.
3. It's a Valentine's Day dress that's easy to match with
Black goes with everything so even if you add different colored clothing items to your look, it will still look fabulous.
4. If you're clumsy, your date won't notice
When wearing a little black dress instead of a red dress for Valentine's Day, you wouldn't have to worry about spilling on yourself because black hides the mess so well. However, this doesn't mean that the spots are invisible, it will just be harder to notice so girl, leave the clumsy self at home, 'kay?
5. An LBD is timeless
The little black dress is not just the best Valentine's Day dress but also a wardrobe piece that will outlive any fashion trend. An you know what? I think it's worth investing in a high-quality piece that will last for years.

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, it's high time to prepare the perfect date night outfit. So if you still don't have any idea what to wear on the most romantic day of the year or you just need a fresh inspo for February 14, here's a Valentine's Day outfit idea that will definitely make your date swoon!
When it comes to fashion, there are pieces that just make sexy look easy. Among these is the classic no-fail red dress.
Here I'm wearing an off-shoulder red dress from Shein. What I love about this dress are its intricate details that make this Valentine's Day outfit idea unique. From the sleeves down to its hem, every detail is oh-so-stunning.
While red is an obvious choice for Valentine's Day, you can still spice it up a bit more. So what I did to make this Valentine's Day outfit idea stand out is style it with a pair of eye-catching white platforms. I'm petite so the extra lift really helps. I think this pair is going to be my new go-to heels since it's very comfortable when worn. Unlike other 5-inch heels, these pair of platforms were made for walking! With this, I don't have to worry about stumbling or tripping in front of my date.
Tips to Slay Your Red Valentine's Day Outfit
- Choose a piece that will both make you look and feel beautiful. Decide which piece of your outfit would you like to get attention on.
- Pair your Valentine's Day outfit idea with the perfect shoes. If you want to look sexier, go for sleek strappy heeled-sandals; if you want to look preppy and cute, go for a pair of doll shoes or sneakers.
- Wear the right accessories. Since you're already wearing a striking color, keep your accessories at a minimum so your Valentine's Day outfit won't be a sore to the eyes.
- Lastly, wear your best smile and confidence. These are the two most important things that will make your Valentine's Day outfit idea a win!

Let's face it, acne sucks! And treating it is a lot more challenging than defining your relationship with the guy that keeps you up all night (oops!). Luckily, I may just have the right product you actually need to stop that pesky pimples from breaking out.
Believe me when I say I'm not someone who's into skin care because I'm too lazy to do those day and night routines and secondly (and obviously), it's expensive. I used to rely only on soap and toner to clean my face at night but when these zits popped out all over my face, I panicked.
November 30 vs. December 11
The skin care newb in me went almost crazy because it seemed like nothing is ever working on my face. From the rejuvenating set to the pink drying lotion, I've already tried a lot of products.
Fortunately, Dr. S. Wong sent me their sulfur soap set meant to treat acne. Now I know this sounds sponsored (because it is) but trust me, these products helped my facial acne subside. Besides, I won't recommend products unless they are backed up by science and of course, experience. Thanks to Dr. S Wong's Sulfur Soap, I no longer have to search "how to treat acne."
What is Dr. S. Wong's Sulfur Soap?
Dr. S. Wong’s Sulfur Soap with Moisturizer is germicide, fungicide and parasiticide. It helps treat acne, pimples and other skin infections with its sulfur content.
Using it long term makes dark spots lighter (as seen in the photo) and scar fade because it helps exfoliate the skin. It has added aloe vera extracts to keep the skin moisturized and comes with a refreshing citrus scent.
Benefits of Dr. Wong's Sulfur Soap With Moisturizer: What it promises
- Kills pimples-causing germs
- Draws out excess oil
- Exfoliates the skin
- Unclogs pores
- Anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-parasitic
Dr. Wong's Sulfur Soap With Moisturizer Review
- It works on my skin! I've noticed improvements in just two weeks.
- Since I started using Dr. S. Wong's Sulfur Soap, my skin isn't as oily as it was before. Hence, minimizing breakouts
- Rating: 8/10
Dr. Wong's Sulfur Soap With Moisturizer Ingredients
- Sulfur
- Essence
- Aloe Vera Extract
- Sodium Lactate
Directions for use to treat acne
For better results in treating acne, bath with warm water, then soap thoroughly. Allow soap to stay on skin for 2-3 minutes before rinsing off. Pat dry with a towel and do not wipe. Do not apply to wounds. Avoid contact with eyes. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor.
