Valentine’s Day Date Ideas

The irony is that a ‘date’ doesn’t need to be defined by just one date. It is a special moment that can be enjoyed anytime. But this Valentine’s Day get ready to sweep him off his feet with these awesome and creative Valentine’s date ideas. To add that zing to your Valentine Day date, you can send a customised invitation card as well.

Well for each one of us, the idea of a date is different. For me it is me and him in a book café! Surrounded by books and lost in the mesmerising aroma of coffee and old books. Okay! Let’s not get too whimsical here.

The safest bet is to book a table at his favourite restaurant. But don’t you think that would be too regular?

This is a perfect occasion to experiment with a new place and try some new cuisines. Also, just in case it turns out to be a fiasco, you can always use the weapon of your puppy eyes and melt his heart. Rooftop restaurants, open air cafés and garden restaurants are also a great option. Considering this awesome weather, you can plan a lunch treat as well. Sunshine would be the perfect accompaniment for your cozy lunch date.

Nothing to beat the idea of cooking a meal for him at home! Do up the place with fresh flowers, aroma candles and light music in the background…and your customised date venue is all set. Melt his heart with your culinary skills. Doesn’t it make for an unexpected Valentine’s Day date idea? 

The key to success is planning. Plan well in advance and make arrangements accordingly, because a lot of places would require prior bookings. I hope this answers the basic question that rattles the mind- What couples do on Valentines?

Valentine Outfits

Once the venue is decided, you can finalise your outfit accordingly. What to wear on Valentine’s day is sorted here.

If the venue is a café or a lounge then you can go boho chic. Palazzo pants and shirts, boyfriend jeans and crop top, maxi dress with funky accessories and slim fit pants with sheer top are some great options. If the weather is tricky, be dressed accordingly. Be comfortable in a nice jacket if it’s cold. Wear nice high boots and a bold lipstick to leave your mark. Wink!

You can also wear an Indo-western outfit. Pair your favourite denims with a vest and anarkali jacket or mix n match kurtis with pants. The fusion look is perfect for this love infused weather.

And just in case you thought that dressing up is only for when you go out, think again. Dressing up for a date at home is all the more exciting. You can have a pajama theme date, cozy, comfortable and very sexy; or go all daring with that super short mini skirt and a crop top! The day is yours!
