Valentine’s Day is one of the few holidays with extremely mixed reviews. There are the cynics who loathe the day entirely, and then the collegiettes that are secretly counting down the days. Regardless of how you feel about the holiday, one thing all collegiettes have in common is yet another excuse to get dolled up to the max. Her Campus is here to give you flirty and sweet inspiration for Valentine’s Day, no matter your plans!
Makeup
Embrace the pink, collegiettes. Try a romantic rose gold eye look complemented with flushed pink cheeks and a pale pink lip. Also, give your skin a candlelit glow with a gold-toned highlighter! Check out these drugstore Valentine’s Day tutorials for product inspiration, here and here.
Hair
Think soft and romantic. My personal favourite tip for a special event is to add a braid to beachy waves. It’s a simple way to make it look as though you spent hours on your hair, when in reality it only adds a few minutes to your routine.
Outfit
Over the knee boots are the perfect Valentine’s Day choice. They’re bold, glamorous, and elongate the leg. Try pairing them with a basic dress and long pea coat matched with dainty gold accessories!
Happy Valentine’s Day, collegiettes. Enjoy your time with loved ones and indulge in all your favourite chocolates and sweets! xo
