Valentine’s Day is just days away, and if you’re like me, you’ve already got an outfit picked out.
I love being festive and dressing up for any and all occasions, and the fact that I’m not in a relationship won’t stop me from sporting red or heart-shaped patterns Saturday. But no look is truly complete without accessories.
Whether you’re going on a fancy date, seeing Fifty Shades of Grey with friends or just hanging out, here’s where to find the perfect addition to any V-Day ensemble. You’ll fall in love without having to break the bank. Who doesn’t love that?
If you’re looking for…
…something fun and trendy: Forever 21

Etsy has millions of interesting items that can’t be found anywhere else, and they’re 100 percent affordable and are sure to make a statement. This rope necklace is perfect with a simple fitted top and any bottom to make any casual look instantly more chic.

…any and all things red: Target
It’s Valentine’s Day, so red is a must, and Target has a great selection of essential items any girl needs. A plain infinity scarf can be worn with anything from an LBD to a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. For a more classic vibe, embellish a simple skater dress and boots with this skinny belt. And no matter where you’re going, you’ll need a place for your things; this crossbody bag will hold it all in style.
Like any holiday, Valentine’s Day fashion can get excessively tacky fast, but with a simple, refined outfit and a few of these chic accessories, you’ll be sure to steal some hearts. And who says you can’t wear red any other day of the year? We are Terps, after all.
Peace, love, and more love,
