Celebrate LOVE with an outfit


Looking Good doesn't have to cost a pretty penny to be classy, and sophisticated, worldly experts at the Refinement Institute show you how with our picks of what you wouldn't mind adding to your wardrobe this Valentine, looking your best for your love.






February month has a lot to offer despite being the shortest month of the year. And no matter which way the season unfolds, there are plenty of dresses to wear that could satisfy both the lunar new year and valentine's day. One thing for sure, we see plentiful dresses that satisfy the modern romance trend this month. From online stores, retail boutiques to VINTAGE affordable collections, there are new collections of romantic frills and sweet vintage-inspired slips (above) to vintage chintzy floral prints, you can dress like a modern-day high society TV show. The date starts hours before; when you're getting into the mindset for a date. So, whether you think the date will go poorly, or you think the date will go well,, you're right. The way to get into the right mindset for dating is by wearing an outfit that you feel great in.




These elegant picks will have you looking your best this Valentine




1. A Simple elegant Olive Slip Dress 

A Vintage affordable easy Slip Dress


Celebrate the power of LOVE with an outfit to make Cupid blush. Forget wearing red today or a heart-shaped pin on your lapel. None of these ideas are modern. Try something fresh and unpredictable.


2. Sweet-vintage dreamy aesthetic inspired Top




3. A midi length polyester fiber dress 




4. Alexa Chung Inspired Sexy Minidress



5. A Satin Slipdress (choose your best colour)


What exactly you should look like for a valentine date may vary from person to person. If you feel best in your pair of jeans, then jeans are the answer. If you're someone who keeps their outfits pretty low-key from day to day, show up as your authentic self in more casual yet polished wardrobe essentials like a white button-up blouse and flats. Just remember the outfit shouldn't be wearing you.

"As an image consultant and personal development coach, I talk to people after they've gone on dates, and what I often hear is ... "he was so great, I really enjoyed the date... but he did not call me for a second date again."  

My recommendation is to be well prepared and get into the task of finding a good date-night outfit that helps exude confidence. I can tell you from my years of dating experience, no one is 100 percent well prepared and ready for dating. Have a few fantastic date outfits ready and on hand. "Not having any clothes that are flattering, or that fit well, or that you're comfortable in could be yet another excuse for why you think you shouldn't go on a date. 

Not having any clothes that are flattering, or that fit well, or that you're comfortable in could be yet another excuse for why you think you shouldn't go on date.


Our recommendation is to have "three or four outfits that you feel comfortable in, that make you feel desirable, confident,- an outfit that helps you look and feel your best. Then, you are going to bring that confident, sexy, flirty, energy to the date. In order to ensure you feel comfortable and honour your personal style, is by testing it out in advance. 

Caution: Make sure you have a bra that is comfortable, not one where the straps are constantly falling off, and you're adjusting it, or your pants are so tight that make you feel uncomfortable. 

A date is all about bringing your best, most confident self, ... part of that is having an outfit that really makes you feel your best.

Why don't you?
While dressing in expensive clothes might give you a fleeting sense of satisfaction, real confidence is not just about the brands you wear or the look you give off.  To celebrate a love date is all about making basic preparations by knowing your look, and playing to your personal strength. Why don't you satisfy yourself with the modern romance trend during this valentine?
