It's funny how you can add pearls to anything slutty, and it becomes classy-sexy. My "top" is actually one of those really cheap skanky dresses that I got for my friend's bachelorette in Vegas, obviously the most romantic choice for Valentine's Day. Although the dress is absurdly short, I felt it would be perfect under my Kate Spade midi skirt (now on sale) and would add volume to the a-line. With this combo, I took a dress that screams "HELP ME, I'm desperate for a date on Valentine's Day!" to "Yes I have a dinner date on Valentine's Day... and a hotel room booked." Oh, and a pop of red lipstick never hurt anyone.
