Valentine’s Day? Panic Over.
The 14thof February is Valentine’s Day; your opportunity to show that special person in your life how much you love them. It’s the most romantically charged day of the year, so expectations run high.
If you’ve already made plans, then we take off our hats to you. However, we know most of you probably haven’t. It’s getting closer and closer to the date, so if you’re in a panic ringing every restaurant from The Hawksmoor to Burger King. Relax. Here’s a few tips for the perfect evening.
Do your research. – Make sure you know what they like. There’s nothing worse than booking a Steakhouse when they’re vegetarian.
Surprise them. – Even if they say they don’t like surprises. They’ll only dislike it if you get it wrong. So do something that’s meaningful to them and something they wouldn’t expect.
Earn extra brownie points, turn up with flowers. – You might be thinking flowers are so predictable. Don’t be naïve. Ladies love them. (Majority vote in the office).
Smarten yourself up. – Don’t turn up in the same old clobber. As good looking as you may be, you won’t surprise them in your old kit. So dress to the nines and jump into a suit.

Here are a few suits with that wow factor;
For slimmer guys, opt for the grey check suit by Ventuno 21. For a more dress down feel, try teaming the jacket with a pair of chinos; http://www.moss.co.uk/Chinos
For those with an athletic figure try this vibrant blue suit by Moss 1851. Pair with a new white shirt and patterned pocket square for a sharp, crisp look.
And lastly, where to have that date?
A romantic restaurant, cinema, theatre, amusement park, footie game (only if she’s a fan), dancing, or escape the rat race and try something more personal. Stay in, demonstrate your culinary skills, – cover your place with flowers and candles, serve champagne in the bath and serenade her.
They’ll forever be in awe of you. Next year it’s their turn.
