The Post for All The Lover's Out There...Valentines Day Edition

 

  I know everyone is gathering there Valentines Day plans. Whether you hate the holiday or love it to pieces, there is almost a 99.9% chance you feel a certain way about it. If you are with someone, or have chosen a Valentine you are expecting a romantic gesture from that lucky person. If you are single for the holiday, this probably amplifies the number of talking balloons, giant stuffed animals and roses you may see floating about. So J Culture is here to bring comfort to the single fashionista and the fashionista that may be "seeing someone". We will explore haute fashions for the "single and celebrating" and "the dating and loving it individuals".

 
  You know what looks completely lonely, and sends out the total opposite signal of not desperate on Valentines Day? WEARING ALL BLACK!!! Single people, the bitter thing on Valentines Day is PLAYED! It has been done to death! And in an age where people are getting married at an older age, you should enjoy your singleness. If you are an older fashionista who follows this ritual, you should have this down already. You probably have your comfy pants and slippers ready, some chic flicks, sweets, and a bottle of sparkling something that will leave you more depressed and probably a couple pounds heavier. What would we suggest? Although this is a fashion blog, there is something that we can tell you. Your wardrobe and overall look from head to toe sends out a strong signal. And yes, that signal broadcasts as much inward as it does outward. People like being around happy and positive people. So ditch the depressing colors (i.e. black), lets find more vibrant bold colors appropriate for the season (i.e.) purple, green, blue and yes RED! Bold Hues have been very popular on the red carpet and everyone should take good use of them during the holiday season. Marc Jacobs and Michael Kors were two of the many designers who made bold references for the season.

  If you are dating you will most likely be hitting a fancy restaurant or for the less creative gentlemen (please be more creative and ditch this idea) the movies. This is your time to step out with your A game in tact. It’s Valentines Day, which is a great excuse for you to wear a well planned outfit.  It’s a romantic holiday and because romance is the staple of this day, fabrics that are flowing are totally appropriate. Romantic waves and curls for your hair (think Taylor Swift) would pull in the look perfectly. 

  Are you single? Well more than likely you will be hitting a club with another if not a few other single girlfriends. What are our suggestions? What’s more vibrant than sequence? It is definitely still in, and it is definitely appropriate for the club, lounging, or partying.  Super sexy stilettos will accent sequence well. It gives off the vibe of fun, you appear to be enjoying yourself before you even open your mouth. Try a haute red lipstick to tip off your party look. Sassy, Sexy, and Single is definitely the look. You should attract people with just the look alone. How to keep them? Well, fashion can only take you so far. But it will definitely get you in the door!
