She’s bold, playful and not afraid to be the main character. This look combines sheer tights in burgundy or black with hot shorts or a mini skirt, creating the perfect blend of edgy and flirty. A splash of red ties into the season’s hottest color trend. To elevate the drama, a statement jacket—whether a cropped fur coat or a metallic blazer—adds texture and personality. Try the Marcus Knit Micro Shorts from Edikted for a sleek and stylish base that complements the bold aesthetic. Accessories should stay sleek and subtle—opt for the Tabby Quilted Leather Shoulder Bag in Dark Ruby for a sophisticated pop of color that ties the look together. This look can be paired with a dark red or natural pink lip and a sultry smokey eye adds just the right amount of intensity.
Look Two: Clean & Elegant Aesthetic with Red Accents

This look is for the girls who keep things fierce but elegant. A long-sleeve bodycon dress in a classic red or deep burgundy, embracing minimalism with clean lines and subtle cutouts that align perfectly with the clean aesthetic trend. For the ultimate refined statement, try the Manière De Voir Knitted Scoop Neck Maxi Dress in Red Wine, a gorg piece spotted on Lori Harvey, making it a must-have for those who share her love for sleek sophistication. To complement the silhouette, opt for sleek yet comfortable open-toe heels and a simple or statement clutch to balance style and ease. Accessories should remain refined—think delicate gold jewelry, such as dainty earrings and a minimal necklace. To complete the look, defined curls will ensure a sophisticated yet effortless finish.
Look Three: Chic and Cozy Layers with Red Details

She’s cozy, chic and right on trend. This look pairs a mini skirt or pants with a crew neck top, layered under the Solid Faux Leather Button Pocket Belted Coat from Micas, adding a sleek and polished touch to the outfit. The real statement? Accessories, like a chunky scarf and a pair of high or chunky heel boots. Elevate the look with the Oversized Fringe Hem Scarf from Ego, a statement piece that blends warmth with high fashion. For a stylish yet functional touch, go for a crossbody purse in red or burgundy, or opt for a mini hand purse to keep things sleek. Play with textures—the glossy faux leather coat, structured boots and soft wool scarf create the perfect balance of edge and sophistication.
Bonus Look: Galentine’s Day Affair (Pink & Off White)
While reds and burgundy may be dominating the color palette this Valentine’s season, there’s always room for the ladies who love to go pretty in pink.

This look blends girly charm with streetwear edge—perfect for a girls' night out. Featuring the Daicock Print Baggy-Fit Jeans #2000 from Evisu, it can pair effortlessly with a cropped white or off white cardigan for a soft yet trendy contrast. For a more casual vibe, try swapping the cardigan for a white graphic tee to lean into the street-style aesthetic. Elevate the look with a high heel boot or sneaker to go under baggy fit jeans. Accessories are key to balancing a girly yet edgy look—a structured mini bag in white or crème with En Route Pink Bow Earrings would add the perfect touch. Hair can be styled away from the face or in a cute updo to show off the outfit, making this the perfectly balanced streetwear moment.
