Hi my loves!

I'm finally back from my extended vacation, and currently re-experiencing the winter blues (stay tuned for my post about my trip to Dubai!). BUT Valentine's Day and Galentine's Day are right around the corner, and no matter how you're celebrating, I have the perfect outfit inspo for you! Picking what to wear on Valentine's Day is always such an issue for me. I don't particularly want to be all glammed up (confession: I find V-day to be extremely cheesy), but I'm pretty much always looking for an excuse to wear pink. And since Valentine's Day is on a Wednesday this year, we have two reasons to be rocking pink!

So after A LOT of searching, I've decided upon this one wardrobe staple that's not only perfect for Valentine's Day, but basically all year round: The Pink Duster Jacket. I bought mine from Necessary Clothing in SoHo last year, and I cannot even begin to count how many compliments I've gotten on it.

Why I love it:

• This duster jacket is so versatile it can be styled a hundred different ways. I've literally never worn it with the same outfit twice! 
   
• It looks flawless on almost every body type — at least 4 of my friends have borrowed mine, and loved it. And some have even bought their own after! 
   
• Dress it up or dress it down! It's chic, comfy, and works for just about any occasion. Wear it to work, a casual girls' night out, a cute date, a happy hour with co-workers or friends, or even for a night on the town! 
   
• It's a wardrobe essential for EVERY season. I've owned this duster for just over a year now, and I've managed to wear it in during all four seasons. 

This duster jacket is especially perfect for Valentine's Day because it adds the perfect pop of pink to your outfit. It's elegant, yet flirty. AND if you're going to your Valentine's Day plans straight from work like I am, it's an amazing day-to-night piece!
