Mom Style Monday | Date Night Style

Today we are talking all about Date Night Style …whohooo!!! As mamas, it’s probably likely that date nights are few and far between for you (just as they are for me!), but it doesn’t mean that I don’t look forward to them SO much and absolutely want to make sure that I look my best for some 1-1 time with the hubs. The problem is that I get so lost in my #momiform sometimes that when it comes to dressing for date nights I’m a little stumped. Anyone can relate? Thought so 😉

The #MomStyleMonday gals and I decided to dedicate this entire post to dressing for Spring Date Nights, so that you can have a few options ready to go in your closet when date night rolls around. Like I mentioned earlier, we really only get out for about 1 date night a month, so I didn’t have a ton of recent inspiration to show you of my date night outfits. So, I decided to take a stroll down memory lane and dig back through the Instagram archives from an entire year to roundup my TOP 10 DATE NIGHT LOOKS and give you some shoppable options to recreate each look! If nothing else, it’s given me some inspiration and motivation to put Humpty Dumpty back together again once this baby comes…always true that you never appreciate what you have until you don’t have it anymore LOL (aka thin arms)…OY VEY!

One more thing–digging back made me realize that there’s not ONE specific formula that works for a date night worthy outfit. I noticed that some of our dates were casual, some were during the day, some were spent on patios, at breweries, at outdoor concerts, at fancy restaurants and some even at black tie events. So here are some looks for each type of date scenario and how you can throw together a cute outfit that will be sure to make the hubs look twice….like, yea that’s right buddy, no yoga pants today 😉

Casual Date Day + Date Night // Outfits that are great for a Sunday brunch date, outdoor music show, trip to a local brewery, or even just an early dinner al fresco at your favorite Mexican restaurant…

This little lightweight denim top was a go-to last Spring to wear with white jeans or shorts. The good news is that it’s back for this season AND on sale…

Off the Shoulder Chambray Top (on sale!) | White Denim Shorts (these are NOT denim panties…thank goodness!) | Blush Bag | Leopard Tassel | Sunnies

This black racerback dress was one of my most worn pieces all Spring + Summer. The fit was easy and could be dressed up or down. So easy to throw on with a fedora and sandals for a date night. The one that I linked below I also own in two colors and is equally as amazing.

Black Racerback Dress (a MUST have for Spring–$49 in 4 colors!) | Statement Necklace | Fedora Hat| Lace Up Sandals

Having a fun off the shoulder top in a bright red is an easy way to get date night ready. Throw it on and front tuck it into denim shorts for a laid back look that doesn’t lack style…

Stylish Date Night // Okay you’re stepping it up a little here. These looks are great for Spring evenings out on the town…trying a trendy new restaurant, a local wine bar, an indoor concert, or even a couples date night.

This outfit was pretty simple…just dressing up my favorite boyfriend tee with a bold statement necklace and my favorite black skinnies. A little trendy, but not fussy….

My Favorite T-Shirt (under $20) | Black Jeans (have had these for 3 years and they are still going strong) | Statement Necklace | Strappy Sandals

I actually wore this outfit just last weekend and loved it. The tunic length is comfy and can be worn with skinny jeans or even leather leggings. Easy to dress up and is an amazing price…

Another off the shoulder top dressed up with jewelry…easy and chic…

Black off the Shoulder Top ($25 in 5 colors) | White Skinny Jeans | Statement Necklace | Leopard Clutch | Lace Up Heels

This off the shoulder dress is cute and on trend, but not overly dressy. I love it for a warm date night paired back to fun turquoise accessories.

White off the Shoulder Dress (LOVE this updated version!) | Statement Earrings | Gold Bracelets | Statement Clutch

Dressy or Formal Date Night // Likely a special occasion or event…Valentine’s Day, Birthday, Anniversary, Gala, Work Party, etc.

This was one of your favorite Date Night posts of all times…what I wore for Valentine’s Day Date Night…

Floral Dress | Pink Heels | Leopard Clutch | Tassel Earrings

This high + low dress worked overtime in my closet this past Spring. I wore it to trendy events, and date nights alike and go SO many compliments on it. It’s easy to play up or down with accessories, too…

High Low Cobalt Blue Swing Dress | Lace Up Heels | Colorful Statement Earrings | Sunnies

I’m a firm believer in that every woman needs a go-to black dress in her closet. This black body con dress is a go-to for me and is always flattering and easy to build an outfit around.
