So how to celebrate? A chic little soiree for two at my apartment, catered by moi.

It seems the perfect time to try out spring’s boudoir-inspired pieces, so I snapped up the Urban Outfitters tap pants I have been coveting for ages. I think I’ll pair them with a cozy sweater that falls off my shoulders to show that perfect bit of skin. I can forgo shoes, and instead treat my toes to a pedicure this week, which feels absolutely decadent given it’s the dead of winter. And that my fashionable friends, is the best Valentine’s Day present of all. What are you planning to wear for V-Day?
