Dear Gentlemen,

It’s a proven fact that women love a well dressed man, even men love a well dressed man. But regardless of your sexual persuasion it is an unequivocal fact that dressing better results in doing better, especially when attracting some romantic interest. Whether you’re celebrating Valentines day for the first time or re-kindling your love, dressing up is a must. Don’t get us wrong, “dressing up” need not imply defaulting to something extremely formal, by “dressing up” we merely mean making that extra effort in looking your best for that special somebody.

Check out what some of our stylists picked as their go-to Valentines Day outfit either for themselves or their significant others.

Rob and Mallory

Mallory: This Valentines Day my boyfriend and I are going to a concert. An evening dancing to the soulful stylings of Justin Timberlake dictates an outfit that is both cool and comfortable. I love these Yo sox and Saxx because they’ll keep him kissable once we get home from the show!

This Valentine’s day, my lovely lady and I will be going out for dinner and night out on the town. The burgundy accents add a fun touch and embrace the valentines day spirit and the double breasted suit is a great addition to my existing wardrobe.

Max and Shae

I prefer boys who break the rules. Date night doesn’t mean you have to feel stuffy. Pair tailored jackets with elements of street style. I want my man to be comfortable drop crotch and all. Of course relationships are all about compromise so that sport coat and tie, all for me.

Oliver and Tia

Through the years, it is evident, we have lost the true meaning to “Valentine’s Day”. Let’s just be honest, it is happening whether you like it or not. This being said it does allow us another day to give extra appreciation to your special someone. With celebratory days come celebratory outfits! So while you’re out on this seductive day dress your best but most importantly, have fun with it. Trust me, who doesn’t want a piece of arm candy.
