Hasta La Ideas

Valentine’s Day is arguably one of the most romantic days of the year and I have a feeling many people will be giving and receiving presents such as blooming flowers, delicious candies and chocolates, and maybe something a little more intimate. The best thing about underwear and pajamas is you can wear them in the privacy of your own home (wearing your polar bear pjs to your Monday morning class is a big no-no!) which means, you can wear the silliest things without embarrassment in the face of the general public. So while you may be looking for something alluring to seduce your partner with, why don’t you get something a little on the silly side too? Wear a pair of kiss printed panties while you’re doing errands or at the gym as your little secret. Or give your sweetie a pair of candy heart boxer shorts that gives those messages on the candy hearts a whole other meaning. When Valentine’s Day is long past, you can always wear these again and again for a funny yet romantic pick-me-up. Just click the slideshow to see more!

Just like plenty of fashion fiends nationwide, we can’t wait to see which designer Michelle Obama will be wearing on the momentous occasion! Will she go glam in a gown from Michael Kors or Carolina Herrera, keep it professionally posh with tailored separates by Badgley Mischka or Diane von Furstenberg, or play it safe in an always-stylish Oscar de la Renta floor-length column dress? Check out some of the designers’ sketches from Women’s Wear Daily and provide your predictions on the first lady’s first-day fashion choice! Photo credit: WWD.
