Valentines Day Inspiration

I always think of Valentines Day being a day about love and fun. I love all the novelty decorations and outfits and of course the chocolates that come in the heart-shaped box (they just taste better coming out of a heart-shaped box) and of course the beautiful flowers.

Valentines Day Outfit Inspiration that’s Cupid Approved

Valentines Day Outfit Inspiration Yasmina Greco Red

This year it felt like retailers really didn’t get into the Valentines Day spirit. I didn’t see very many outfits with hearts or lips and very few red or pink dresses. Also, being a curvy girl I found the selection of Valentines Day outfit sizing to be on the smaller side this year and although I waited till it was nearly too late in the hopes that my go-to brands would come out with something, they didn’t, so, I decided I’d reach into my fabulous wardrobe and put my own Valentine inspired outfit together.

Valentine Bombshell Curves and Glamour

Yasmina Greco Pink Harlequin Pinup Girl Dress

This photo shoot is one of my all time favorites I’ve done thus far for Pin Up Girl Clothing. I am wearing the Pinup Couture Edie Dress in Pink Harlequin print. The harlequin prints from Pin Up Girl are out-of-this-world with their color combos and styles. The Edie dress in Pink Harlequin is exquisite with lots of pink, red, and white colors and it is absolutely perfect for Valentines Day.Yasmina Greco Pink Harlequin Pinup Girl Dress

This is my very first Edie style and it reminds me a lot of the famous white Marilyn Monroe dress and, I really felt like a glamorous bombshell in it. I am wearing a size 2XL (my standard size in Pin Up Girl Clothing) and the dress emphasizes my hourglass figure and is spectacularly big boob friendly!! The Edie has a collared mock wrap bodice and us gals with big busts really appreciate this style. The dress is impeccably made with loads of high quality gathered sateen fabric, has pockets and comes with a matching belt to nip in the waist. Pinup Girl Clothing designs and creates the most beautiful vintage style clothing that is impeccably made and will last for years.

Accessorizing with a pink or red cardigan is so complementary with the colors of the Pink Harlequin Edie dress. Add a petticoat for additional fullness (I am wearing a petticoat) and match your favorite shoes too. I had so much fun spending the day in this gorgeous dress and it was incredibly comfortable and barely wrinkled. I love all things pink, and this dress is not only perfect for Valentines Day but also anytime you want to feel like a glamorous bombshell!! Hurry and snap yours up before it is completely sold out!!
