I've been married for 22 years. When you've been with someone that long, sometimes romance fades to the background. This Valentine's Day, my husband and I are planning dinner at a favorite neighborhood restaurant to remind ourselves how much we enjoy each other's company. I usually dress casually, and that's what makes me feel comfortable. But for this night I want to wear something special.
That gave me the idea of putting together three looks for a Valentine's Day date. Personally, I'd choose the first look, which is a combination of casual and elegant, with the chunky choker necklace taking center stage. The second look is inspired by my friend Christen, who always pulls off edgy ensembles with such flair. The chain bracelet and earrings complement the outfit without overwhelming it. Finally, the last look is appropriate for a formal evening. The simple pearl pendant is classic but unique, and you can wear it every day, too.
One of the things I love most about what I do is creating pieces that work for a wide range of women. If you like outfit #3 but want a piece that makes more of a statement, why not try my chunky mixed pearl necklace. It works equally well for a romantic evening, a day at work with a dress or blazer, or a casual weekend with a basic white tee.
Other favorites for Valentine's Day are my clear cubic zirconia earrings, my wishbone pendant, and my turquoise bracelet.
And if you happen to be a man and are wondering about the perfect Valentine's Day gift for your sweetheart, e-mail me for suggestions!
Love,
Ruth
