I don’t know about you, but I’m SO happy it’s Friday! I’m also excited to share my very first style collaboration with you all! I recently had the pleasure of meeting and becoming fast friends with the beautiful and stylish blogger Alina of Style by Alina. Being the fabulous creative that she is, Alina had the genius idea of coming up with a great collaboration for us to work on together. With Valentine’s Day just a month away, it’s never too soon to start thinking about what you’re going to wear for that special night. So whether you’re going out on a first date right after work, or on a date night with your husband or boyfriend, Alina and I have got you covered! For our style collaboration today, I took the day look and Alina took the evening look. I’m happy to be presenting both looks to you today!
To be very honest, first dates make me SO nervous! I always want to make a good first impression so I usually over-analyze which outfit to wear. Conservative vs. Sexy. Hair up vs. Hair Down. It can quickly become stressful, and to add another layer of difficulty, as a woman in the work force I don’t always have time to head home for a quick change before going on a date. So for my look today, I wanted to give you an example of a professional, yet sexy look that transitions well into the perfect date look!
Here’s my day look, along with a sneak peak of Alina’s evening look:
*My photos were taken by Ashleigh Lynch
NOTE: The first picture in this set is INTERACTIVE and SHOPPABLE (head over to Alina’s blog for more details on her outfit)
With this look, I can easily go from the office to my date with no worries that I won’t make a good first impression!
So, what are some of your favorite first date/date night looks?
*Be sure to check out Alina’s blog for more pictures and details on her evening look!
Until next time!

Hey Mel! Girl thanks so much! I’ll be sure to pass on the kudos to her. She had a lot of fun taking them. I got the skirt on sale at Zara for $39.99 but it’s now on sale for $19.99! Grab it and post your pics!

That skirt and that purse! I just don’t know what to say anymore (in a good way), you look beautiful! I don’t think I’ll look good in that skirt though, not the skirt-y girl type hahah 😛
Johnnalynn Lynch says
Hi Mel! Thanks so much! Honestly, I rarely wear skirts. I promised myself that this year I’d try to wear more skirts.
