Come February 14, couples everywhere will flock to their nearest movie theater to see the final chapter of Fifty Shades of Grey. While we’ll have to wait to see what becomes of Anastasia Steele and her Christian Grey (judging by the trailer, married life isn’t without a few bumps in the road) there is no question that the franchise’s leading lady, Dakota Johnson, has Valentine’s Day style down pat. The actress has been linked to Coldplay’s Chris Martin as of late, but even before she hooked up with the musician, she was mastering date-night style for every occasion. So on the most romantic day of the year, why not dress the part?
Perhaps you have plans to play hooky and go for brunch with your other half. In that case, hit a flirty note in Mango’s floral maxi dress and a major Gucci cross-body that will leave your hands free to hold onto your partner. Or maybe your relationship is still within the more casual stages, in which case, you can’t go wrong with a leopard topper by The Kooples and George Keburia cat-eyes as you cozy up to your cutie over coffee. Going for drinks? Saunter up to the bar in red satin mules from The Row that will put you eye level with that certain someone, then match it to a silky blouse and coordinating trousers to make a red-hot statement from top to toe. Or if you’re that fun couple who goes all out and follows up a romantic dinner with dancing, simply shimmy the night away in Roland Mouret’s spangly minidress. It’ll give new meaning to silver screen siren.
