Valentine’s Date Night

Holly — Mon, 13 Feb 2017 00:10:12 +0000

I’m not going to lie, typically B and I are homebodies and prefer to stay in and cook, especially on Valentine’s Day when restaurants are crazy busy. But, for those of you who love going out and prefer to leave the cooking (and the clean up) to the pro’s I thought I would share a little V Day date night inspo!

You may remember this skirt from this post I did back in the spring. It’s one of those pieces that I will hold onto forever as it pairs so beautifully with several other pieces in my closet like this lace top. The combination of the white lace and pink just screams Valentine’s day. I originally got the skirt from a boutique called Uptown Casuals, it has since sold out so I have linked a bunch of my favourite blush skirts! The top is from the website Shein, I order from frequently and I am always SO impressed with the quality of the stuff considering how affordable they are – this top is $21… shop here!

What are you V Day plans? Will you stay in get dressed up and hit the town!?

Winter Date Night Outfit

You guys. It is freaking freezinggggggg. This morning when I opened my weather app it said feels like -47 celsius which is about -52 Fahrenheit which really just means another indoor recess for the kids… ugh. Okay, I’m done complaining for now but if mother nature doesn’t turn this around real quick, it’s not going to pretty in my house… these indoor recesses are making me go insane!

Speaking of going crazy, a good cure to kick the winter blues is a date night! I know, you’re probably thinking what in the same hell do I wear when it’s sub zero temps?! Think in layers… I mean you’re not going to want to walk to your destination but this OOTN will keep you warm enough going between the car and your date night spot! Under the sweater I have a tank for extra warm and surprisingly the leather leggings are fairly warm as they are lined on the inside and cut the wind.

Date nights in the winter typically consist of a nice dinner and a few glasses of wine at our favourite local spots: Enso, The Creek in Cathedral Bistro, Flip and The Capitol!

Last night we had our annual Christmas GNO and, of course, it was an absolute blast! It began at Sprout Catering where Baba’s Food Spot supplied the most amazing perogies, sausage, and all the fixings and it was so, friggin’, good!! If you’re from YQR and you haven’t tried it yet, you need to drop everything, follow them on Instagram (here), and track that food truck down.

We then had a gift exchange, (I got the Earls cookbook #yass) and loaded the party bus for some dancing, scream singing to Justin Bieber, and photo ops. We ended the night doing some more dancing at Lot Club. The night was filled with LOL’s, dancing, a few cocktails, and delicious food… it was perfect! With every year that passes I am more and more grateful to have such an amazing group of women in my life! What better way to celebrate than a night out on the town!?

GNO’s are always super fun to dress for, it’s a night where anything goes! I’m not going to lie, I was pretty pumped about this little BCBG Max Azria dress I found at Marshalls a few days before. I had planned on wearing an old dress and jazzing it up with some jewellry but when I found this gem I couldn’t leave it! The bling on the collar is perfect for the holiday season… so is the loose fit if you know what I mean

Last minute I decided to throw this gorgeous vest on for some warmth… Brrr! I needed it!

Stay tuned for more holiday wear inspiration, I will be posting more throughout the next few weeks!

Will you be heading out with your gf’s to celebrate Christmas?! If so, what will you wear?
