What Men Should Wear For A Valentines Date

You always want to look your best for a lady, but on Valentine’s

Day there is added pressure as this is the day of love, the one

every woman looks forward to each year. Not only do the date,

the card and the gifts need to be extra special to impress, so do

you. Whether you are taking the lucky lady out to a suave

restaurant or to the theatre, having a more casual night in your

favourite cosy pub or opting for a dark and romantic cinema trip,

here is our guide on how to dress to impress on a Valentine’s Day

date.

The First Valentine’s Date

It can be very tempting to try too hard on your first Valentine’s Day with a new partner because of

that pressure to impress, but don’t let it get to you. They may even say that they aren’t that

bothered about it, and that it’s just another gimmick, but this could just be a test so play it safe and

plan to do something with them on the night anyway.

And the dress code for a first V-Day date? Go for something that looks like you are serious and

interested but if they turn out to genuinely not be bothered about the day then you just look well

dressed for a typical date. Opt for a casual and smart mix of jeans and tailoring, such as a shirt with

no tie and a men’s blazer from Austin Reed, somewhere that shows you mean business.

The ‘Settled In’ Valentine’s Date

You have been in a relationship for a few or more years now, and you are starting to get comfortable

and relax, but that doesn’t mean you should lapse on the V-Day front. You should know by now your

partner’s true thoughts on the day, just how serious they take it and what they like to do.

If they prefer swanky and suave venues, then opt for some impressive tailoring. Treat yourself to a

new suit rather than opting for an old worn out one or one that you drag out for everything,

weddings, funerals, the lot. Most women take this day very seriously so you need to show the same

enthusiasm.

If your partner is more of the type who enjoys going somewhere quant and casual then opt for

something with understated appeal. For example when going to the pub or cinema if you typically

wear your jeans and a normal t-shirt, step it up slightly with a casual shirt or smarter t-shirt like polo

shirt, or a jumper over a shirt always works well and looks both smart and casual for an understated

groomed look.
