Whether you’re celebrating with a partner or the girls, Valentine’s Day is the perfect day to have fun with red and lean into the joy of it all. If, however, you (like some of us here) are decidedly not partaking, it can be hard to ignore, but embracing the powerful colour in something fun might just be the antidote.
Here are a few picks for if you need to pick something up in time for Valentine's or just need some styling inspiration, including the obvious red dresses, burgundy and coral as an alternative to true red, interesting two-piece looks, and even jerseys. Take your pick!
The Bow Dress from Ziva Lagos, is a figure flattering and clasically feminine dress with its fitted bodice and full skirt in true red, and you can choose between a full length or above the knee version.
Bawsty's Ruby Fringe Maxi dress is fabulous and flirty, and made with ladies with a bigger bust in mind.
Rendoll's slip style Nymeriah dress with matching scarf is a classic silhouette but far from boring with its pink polka dots.
Andreah Iyamah's Anida dress brings the drama with its ruching, voluminous sleeves and mouthwatering colour.
The puff sleeves, cropped top and culottes in burgundy make M.O.T. The Label's Binta set a feminine and fun alternative to a dress.
Kai Collective's Kaili oversized logo t-shirt and their Yumi laser cut faux suede skirt in red are a perfect pairing for a more fashion forward and less traditional look.
Another fuss-free way to indulge in the colour is a tee like this graphic tee from FSS, with denim and bright accessories.
Severe Nature Femme Nature smocked jersey is a softer take on a sporty basic, with tons of potential for styling.
Vintage is always in, and Kai's retro style knitted jersey is perfect for borrowed-from-the-boys styling.
