Get Sexy Guide: 15+ Valentine's Day Date Night Outfits



Every year, Valentine’s Day encompasses my two favorite things: fashion and boys. On February 14th, I will be in the throes of Fashion Week after which I’m looking forward to some R&R with my special someone (read: I won’t have the energy for a movie or dancing out in the city; yay for gifts, flowers, cuddling and romantic films he has to watch for one night without complaining!).



If you are planning to hit the town, allow me to introduce you to the feminine, romantic, breathlessly sexy looks that just scream date night. Because, afterall, if he spent all that time searching for the perfect gift and waiting in line at the supermarket for flowers, balloons and chocolate, the least you could do is look incredible, right?




Below, 15+ looks for dinner, dancing and everything in between.








Don't you just love dates? Happy Valentine's Day, glamazons!

Kisses,

Coutura

Fashion Week Prep: My New Haircut


Hey Glamazons! I may not have a full time office job anymore, but I can't remember the last time I was really this busy. Yes, I can honestly say that I'm even busier now than I was when working at The Magazine...if that's possible haha. Today was a pretty great day, though. One of my good friends that works on beauty brands at a PR firm contacted me to be a hair model for a Valentine's Day television segment and, of course, I accepted. My first foray into modeling! (Because, as you may remember, I secretly want to be a model...well, minus the drama of being a certain size and having to deal with the stress of looking like how everyone else wants you to look. Ok, so maybe I don't really want to be a model, but I like the idea of being one. I mean, free designer clothes, bags, shoes and trips to Paris for life?! Who wouldn't want that hook up?!) I digress. Sorry.
So, I accepted and was pleasantly surprised to find out that Ted Gibson would be doing my hair! The Ted Gibson! Even as a beauty editor, I couldn't ever get in to see him. Now, I feel like my tresses have finally been blessed by the trinity of hair gods. Yes, it's that serious. He asked me if I were willing to cut my hair even shorter and I gave him the green light to do whatever he wanted. With every snip of the scissors, I grew more and more excited! I mean, he must have cut off at least 3 inches or more of my hair (especially in the back). It's the shortest it's ever been and I'm in l-o-v-e! The perfect cut to start Fashion Week off right. Now, I only need to get in to see my colorist Adrian at the Rita Hazan Salon for a color refresher (because I can never be blonde enough in life) and I'll be set. What do you guys think?!
