FMF Reader Poll: Valentine's Day Dress

By -
During high school, my friends and I started a tradition of wearing black on Valentine's Day. In college, my friends there extended the tradition from just wearing black to visiting the cutesy, lovey-dovey local ice cream parlor (jarring the love birds with our black outfits) and eating way to much ice cream. Last year, I attended an "All the Single Ladies" party, for which we were instructed to wear pajamas. I'm not sure what I'll wear this year. I'm tempted to dress like a life-sized Valentine just for the fun of it. What do you wear for Valentine's Day?

life-size valentine. I'm wearing a red A-line tank dress, a red polka dot headband with bow and am giving friends chocolate truffles.

If I have a bf, then I would be obligated to dress in non-over-the-top and possibly-embarrassing-to-the-guy clothe. So might as well get it out of my system (if that's possible), before I get a bf.

Charles, I love her dress in the picture too!

Fanya, send a picture! That sounds adorable!

I'm leaning toward a life-sized valentine more and more.

I'm wearing this bright red skirt that I rarely have an occasion to wear. I somewhat hate Valentine's Day, but I like dressing for it. Just because I'm bitter and alone doesn't mean I can't be bitter and alone and stylish. ;)

Depends on what my plans are. Last year a wore an itty-bitty black dress and a faux fur for dinner with my single girls. This year it will probably end up being pajamas.

Let's see, Valentine's Day is a Sunday. I'll be going to church then sitting on the couch blogging all day. So my usual hotpants then.

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at

Dramatic Makeup

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
