This week, we're channelling a romantic vibe with a pretty vintage edge just in time for a stylish Valentines Day. Whether it's a hot new date, a candlelit dinner with your current beau or a single night out with the girls, this look works.
You'll look gorgeous, feminine and sexy without looking like you've tried too hard as there's nothing worse than by-passing desirable and heading straight for desperate.
We've fallen in love with River Island's vintage rose-print dress which is very chic and very cute and is saved from any ‘twee-ness' thanks to it's fashion forward tailoring - an adorable sweetheart neckline, fitted waist and structured tulip skirt.
And for £44 your purse will still be feeling the love too.
Accessories are key here to keep the pretty-retro look together, so we've paired it with Topshop's fine-knit coral cropped cardi which is also a hot hue for spring and summer. Accessorize's gorgeous cream cross-body bag is just the ticket for toting around all your essentials in and again is a snip at just £15.
We've steered away from the obvious Valentine's hearts and bows which can look, frankly, a bit naff and definitely aren't the best fodder for a first date - however we couldn't resist adding a touch of kitsch with ASOS.com's brass heart and swallow necklace.
And finally - sticking to Mary Jane shapes when it comes to your shoes with keep your vintage vibe happy and tie the look together like a charm. We love Topshop's pretty pair in cream leather.
