How does an outfit convey love? Affection? Attraction is EASY: show a bit more cleavage, a smidge more leg, a snatched waist. Eh, presto--done! But how does one show warmth and belovedness? In my estimation, it should include a bit of shine or gleam (but not overmuch), like a diamond post earring or silver belt buckle. A sheen of fabric: so a silk shirt or velvet around a collar. A flattering color. Anything to frame the face: scarf around the neck drawing attention up and a hat drawing attention down. Also think tactile: fur or faux fur element; fuzzy sweater, snuggly cashmere lounge pants. Think about being an invitation to touch. How will you dress for Valentines, anniversary or first date?
