Trailing the heels of our Valentine’s Day gift guides, we thought we would switch it up and show you the best way to celebrate the evening as a single girls’ holiday, dressed to impress. Think brave, bold, embellished and most of all fun. For a night out on the town, classic wardrobe pieces like a LBD and statement jewellery go a long way. Opt for old school glamour to channel a romantic vibe, updated with youthful details and frills to keep the look fun and flirty. Incorporate twists on the traditional romantic red, with pieces like Talula’s Yula dress in ‘Lobster’ from Aritzia, or Zara’s gathered shoulder jacket in coral. This year, drinks and dinner with your closest crew never looked better – just make sure to finish the look with a killer pair of heels.
