Valentine’s Day Coord Ideas

Valentine’s Day is next week already and I’m sure many of you have had plans for a while. In case you’ve left some things for the last minute, here are some outfit ideas – however you’re celebrating!

Romantic Date with your Significant Other

It’s conventional to spend the day of love with your significant other. Whether you’re off on a dinner date, to the cinema or doing something unusual, you can bring the love theme to your coord. Depending on the activities, feel free to swap shoes for more practical ones. However, for a typical romantic dinner something elegant like this would be very appropriate.

Classy and elegant, acceptable even for the fanciest restaurant. And look at the heart lace on the JSK! Innocent World Lace Hearts JSK and headbow, Queen Bee shoes, Miho Matsuda bolero and Alice and the Pirates OTKs.

Valentine’s Day Meetup

Whether you have a partner or not, you can always go out for a meet with your Lolita comm. Many will be doing something themed for the occasion, so join if you can. A more friendly atmosphere asks for more pinks than reds, but you could also play with your favourite themes. Letters and sweets are appropriate for Valentine’s Day, but if you really love bunnies or crosses – show your love for that!

What’s more girly than pink and red? Wear this with cute pink socks or tights. Baby the Stars Shine Bright Strawberry’s Heart Drops JSK, Angelic Pretty blouse, Emily Temple Cute bag, Milk shoes, barette and hair clip.

Galentine’s Day

In case you haven’t heard of it, Galentine’s Day is a love-yourself spin on Valentine’s Day, usually celebrated with your female friends. And what common Valentine’s Day gift do most women love? Chocolate! So don your most chocolatey coord – or a casual version if you’re going out with normie friends – and enjoy. Being a woman it’s great, who can stop you from celebrating that?

Chocolate is what makes every gal smile! Angelic Pretty Country of Sweets JSK, Alice and the Pirates blouse and OTKs, Baby the Stars Shine Bright shoes, Innocent World beret and Milk hair clips.

Valentine’s Day at Home

This year Valentine’s Day falls on a Wednesday – inconvenient for most of us at work or in school. But who says you can’t dress up just for yourself? Whether you have something else planned for the weekend or not, wear something cute on the day itself and do something you love. Maybe a romantic film or a favourite book? How about writing out valentines for your friends and family? Whatever you do, you can look cute doing it, even if you don’t leave the house.

Comfortable enough for lounging, cute enough if you need to go out last minute. Mint and red gingham will cheer you up in the February weather! Angelic Pretty gingham OP, headbow, shoes and cardigan, Haenuli tights.

Who has plans for this Valentine’s Day then? What are your coord ideas? Have you fallen in love with any new dresses recently? Don’t forget to post a photo of your Valentine’s Day coordinate to Alice Holic – hurry up, the competition will be over in just a few days!
