Whenever I collaborate with Megan from Diary of This Girl I have way more fun! This is why we are bringing you two Valentine’s Day looks this week – one causal and the other dressy.
I love how Megan went for a non-traditional Vday look, but still managed to look girly and romantic. Her polka dot quilted jacket is super cute and flattering. I like how she choose to wear a flowy white tank underneath. Her black & white printed clutch and sweet bow flats add some flair to her monochromatic look.
I went the traditional route and wore pink. Although this sweater is not the most flattering on my frame, I couldn’t resist it. I love peplums and liked how this one came in a structured knit material.
In my goal to wear more brooches, I added my rhinestone bow brooch and a sweet thrifted button bracelet. I layered on a few dainty rings and made sure to include my heart-shaped one. For some extra glam, I attempted to do two dutch braids in my hair and wore my not-so-secret weapon, Ardell false lashes. I went with distressed jeans and rose gold ballet flats to keep things causal.
Visit Megan’s blog to see more pictures from this shoot, and be sure to swing back here on Thursday for our second look.

Hi Asa! I don’t think the sweater is unflattering at all, the colour suits you particularly!
