Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate love than with a special date night! If you want to step outside the box and give your partner an unforgettable Valentine’s Day, we’ve got you covered with creative date night ideas. And, of course, we’ll help you find the perfect date night outfits to make your day even more memorable. Putting together gorgeous outfits for any occasion is kind of our thing, after all.
Cook Dinner Together
Skip the crowded, expensive restaurant and create a culinary masterpiece together at home! Enjoy picking out a recipe, shopping for ingredients, and whipping it all together with your partner. Whether you’re a gourmet chef or a takeout connoisseur, you can find easy-to-find recipes, or splurge on a pre-made meal kit. For a cozy yet stylish look, consider donning matching aprons over your favorite casual jeans and cozy sweater. As far as date night outfit ideas go, this is about as easy – and as comfy –as you can get!
Have An Indoor Picnic
Staying in can be incredibly romantic, especially when you create an indoor picnic with your partner’s favorite meal. A picnic is easy to set up, but the thoughtfulness and closeness you’ll feel will make a lasting impression. Use this opportunity to show off your favorite dress that’s perfectly on-theme for Valentine’s Day but may be a bit too chilly for the cold February weather. Add a cute cardigan or shawl to this date night outfit for added coziness.
Go For A Hike
For an unforgettable Valentine’s Day adventure, take a hike! Pick a scenic trail or a waterfall destination you and your partner will adore. If the weather allows, rest on a bench or a blanket and soak in the sights, sounds, and smells of nature. For a successful hike, make sure you are prepared with the right gear. Trails may be snowy or icy depending on where you live, so make sure you pack reliable hiking boots. For your base layer, choose a brand that provides moisture-wicking properties, like Vevo Active™ Tech, to keep you cool, dry, and comfortable on your date.
Recreate Your First Date
Take a trip down memory lane by recreating your first date! Wear or recreate the outfits you wore, go to the same or similar places, and reminisce about the date that started it all!
Plan A Photo Shoot
What could be better on Valentine’s Day than looking into your partner’s eyes and capturing those beautiful moments together with a photo shoot? Not only will you create lasting memories, but you’ll also have your holiday card photos done months in advance! Coordinate your outfits with your partner by choosing complementary colors or prints. Showcase your love and your unique style!
Get Crafty
Throw it back to your elementary school days and make each other some old fashioned Valentines! We’re talking markers, stickers, pipe cleaners, and LOTS of glitter. Not only will the two of you get to enjoy creating something together, but you’ll end up with a handmade piece of art from your special someone to treasure for years to come. Don’t have any craft supplies at home? Visit your local pottery painting studio and make each other matching mugs or plates! You’ll feel the love every time you pull these unique dishes out of your cupboard. For this date night outfit, we’d recommend a tee shirt and jeans that you don’t mind getting a little paint or glitter on.
Visit a Local Museum
If you and your partner appreciate art and culture, consider spending your Valentine’s Day exploring a local museum. You’ll spend a few hours together learning and doing something you’ll both enjoy. Opt for a smart-casual look that combines style and comfort: a pair of well-fitted jeans, a chic top, and fashionable, comfy sneakers will be perfect for a day of cultural exploration.
Have a Movie Night
A cozy night in is always a fantastic option. Snuggle up with your partner, grab a bowl of popcorn, and put on your favorite pajamas or comfy sweats. Bonus points for matching pajamas! Create a lineup of the cheesiest romcoms or your favorite action films—whatever you’ll love watching together. This date is all about relaxing and enjoying each other’s company.
Go to a Wine Bar
If you’re looking for a more upscale experience, head to a wine bar to elevate your date night style. A curve-loving cocktail dress will make you feel like a million bucks while you sip fine wines with your loved one. Pair with some stylish heels to complete the classy look.
Try Something New Together
How many times have the two of you talked about wanting to try something someday, whether it be a new skill, a fancy restaurant, or a local tourist attraction? Well, “someday” is this Valentine’s Day! Check out that axe throwing place in town. Get a reservation at the brand new Korean barbecue spot on the corner. It doesn’t matter what you do, as long as you do it together! Even if you end up deciding that axe throwing isn’t really your thing, you’ll still have the memories of trying to figure it out with your special someone to look back on. This date night outfit will depend on what activity you choose, but comfortable sneakers and jeans are a reliable option for all types of outings.
Valentine’s Day is the perfect occasion to show your partner how much you care about them with a thoughtful, memorable date night. Whether you choose to cook together, embark on an adventure, or have a cozy night in, the most important thing is spending quality time with your special someone. Plus, with our suggestions, you’ll not only make lasting memories, but you’ll look and feel your best while doing it! Cheers to love and unforgettable date nights!
