Whether you’re going out for a romantic
meal or spending time adventuring outdoors, I’ve come up with the ultimate
style guide for dates in 2019.
Flirty fine dining
Sometimes we love to treat ourselves with a
spot of fine dining. It might be a restaurant that you and your other half have
been wanting to visit for a while, but you’ve been saving it for a special
occasion. With some fine dining venues operating a strict dress code, what
should you wear?
Choose a floor-length dress if you want to
amp up the formality of your look. Many
women go for a fancy look when they’re heading to a posh restaurant so it’s
unlikely that you’ll look out of place. If you feel overdressed, pair yours
with flat shoes and a short jacket. Alternatively, you could pair a midi dress
with heeled boots and a stylish clutch. Go for a statement print and flirty
frills to channel Valentine’s vibes — but remember to avoid overly bright
tones.
Date-night drinks
For weekend date nights, you might fancy a
few drinks together. Go dressy with one of your party
dresses, keep it flirty with a pink mini dress, scarlet lacy bodysuit or a
bold ruby-coloured jumpsuit. Or, stay classic in an LBD and accessorise by
adding a pop of colour to your outfit with red accessories. Elevate your
ensemble with statement stilettos or barely-there block heels. Finish the look
with dainty jewellery such as heart-shaped earrings and a pendant necklace.
Cosy cinema date
Perhaps you’ve decided to go on a cute
cinema date for your next night together. Of course, you still want to make an
effort, but you need to be comfy when you’re snuggling during the film.
Pair black skinny jeans with a bright
Bardot top and cute tote bag (perfect for hiding snacks as well as looking
stylish!). Bring some colour to your outfit with animal print ankle boots or
chunky printed scarf.
Eating out first? Opt for something
dressier like a loose-fitted T-shirt dress and over-the knee boots.
A night in for two
Make a candlelit home-made meal for two
followed by popcorn and your favourite film. You can still dress up, even if
you do want to get changed into your pyjamas straight after dinner!
Since you’re staying in the house, you want
to be comfy. You could opt for an accordion midi skirt, paired with an
off-the-shoulder crop top. Or, choose an unstructured jumpsuit that’ll look
great if you decide to head out after eating!
Make up for it with accessorising — hooped
earrings and a matching bracelet are the perfect finishing touches.
Romantic stroll
If you’re exploring with your special
someone you need to consider practicality. You don’t want to be falling over on
your romantic date so walking shoes or appropriate footwear are a must. Add
layers to your outfit with a cosy fleece, padded puffer jacket and a cute
bobble hat. If you’re planning on going out to lunch on your way home, consider
wearing a dressy top under your layers, just in case your other half wants to
snap a photo of you as a memory of your perfect day.
What’s your next date night? Make sure your
style-prepped with our different date style guide.

It's March and that means spring aka the blossom season is soon here. And who doesn’t love spring ? A reminder and a lesson for us to learn that no winter ever lasts forever. It's not only the best time to soak into the glory of mother nature but also one of the best times to photograph it in its happiest colourful form. The Tulips of Netherlands, the Cherry blossoms of Japan, the yellow spring of Sweden all beautiful and stunning. Excited for spring travel? So here are my 5 favourite places to wander, marvel and take photos of during this spring time.
1. Japan - The land of the rising sun becomes ever so beautiful covered with sakura the Cherry blossoms. Experiencing spring in Japan is definitely a must in ones lifetime.
2. Netherlands - Think Netherlands, Think Tulips. Love the symmetry of the Tulip flower. Fields and fields of red, yellow, orange in Netherlands. It seems like the earth is exploding with colours. Mid April is the peak season for tulips and if you want to avoid the crowds of the famous Lisse head to Hillegom.
3. London - My favourite city in the world is no less stunning than the best during spring. That is the thing about London. It does justice to every season. Hyde Park, Regents Park are beautiful but Greenwich Park is the most stunning during spring. Lined with rows of Cherry Blossoms. My favourite London Neighbourhood, Notting hill looks particularly picturesque. The flowers against candy colour houses there make great pictures. South Kensington has some blossom trees at great spots too. Also London shops and cafes do beautiful spring flower installations that make great pictures.
4. Yunnan, China - China is so huge and diverse and it has so many different flowers and colours. Vaibhav visited Kunming last year and he was in total awe of the variety of flowers he experienced there. Kunming is also known as the spring city of China.
5. Sweden - Yes Sweden is cold and that's why at the hint of warm temps the nation gets real excited for spring. People want to dine in the open and just want to stay in the outdoors at every opportunity possible. The nature gives Sweden a carpet of yellow flowers in spring. The most luminous of all the colours of the spectrum signifying enlightenment, sunshine, creativity and very rightly Spring. Head to Malmo, Sweden to experience yellow in its natural glory.
These are my favourite spring destinations? Love to hear from you about your favourite spring destinations and experiences. let me know in the comments below.
