Be Mine

Hey guys! So I know it has been FOREVER since I last posted, but I promise that this post was worth the wait. I wanted to post something really special and meaningful because my readers are so important to me, and what is more special and meaningful than love?! Plus, with it being Valentine’s Day and all, I thought this was very appropriate.

So for this entry, I am going to be talking about love, giving you guys some dating/relationship advice, and we’re going to play a fun little game! But first, let me introduce my super hot models that I borrowed for this shoot.

Eric 

Elliot   

Lance

Adam  

Michael

Aren’t they major babes? As you read through this post, try to guess which one of them I’m actually dating… ;) you’ll find out at the end!

Unfortunately, not all of them were available for our couple's shoot. But they were all awesome examples of what guys should wear for any special occasion. Church, fancy parties, or Valentine's Day! 

Okay so let’s talk about LOVE. I think Dr. Seuss truly said it best: “You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.” And let me tell you, being in love is just that. It’s all about the butterflies, the holding hands, the social media posts. Pretty much anything that lets the world know that you are in a relationship and it’s better than your dreams!

Which brings me to my advice for all of you lovely people. Whether you’re in a relationship, single, or even married, all of this can be helpful for you!

Sense of Humor

Make sure the guy you’re dating can make you laugh. But also, if he’s not that funny, it’s okay. Just laugh at whatever he says and he’ll feel so good about himself! That is key to having a good relationship or getting a guy to like you. Just laugh at all their jokes!

Height Differences

When it comes to height, I am a girl that strictly believes that a guy should be at LEAST 6 inches taller than you. That way you can wear heels whenever you want, and you get to feel small and protected by your man! However, there are some super cute guys who may be shorter than you. If they’re really attractive, the height thing can be overlooked. BUT it is extremely important that you never wear heels.

(Just look how awkward it was with me and Eric!) But the good news is that our photoshoot was fixed quickly just by taking off my heels! 

With every relationship obstacle, there is a quick and easy solution.

Fights

Speaking of obstacles, sometimes you’re gonna fight in a relationship. This is totally normal! There are a few ways that you can move forward from these. 

1. Ignore the problem, and learn to deal with it. This has proved to be very effective. 

2. Complain about it on social media, or to your friends and family. Sometimes you just need to vent! 

3. Talk it out and try to come to a compromise. This is always risky, but sometimes can work out for the best.

Whatever you decide, one of those 3 options is bound to help and you’ll be making up in no time!

PDA

PDA (or public displays of affection) is kind of a personal choice, but I fully encourage it. In fact, my motto is “the more PDA, the better!” Because like I previously mentioned, you want everyone to know you’re dating someone! 

Well, that’s about all the advice I can think of to give you all, and I know that if you put some of those things into practice, you will have super happy relationships!

Now let’s talk about my outfit.

What I love about my Valentine’s Day outfit is that it can be totally appropriate for any sort of date. Fancy or casual, all I need to do is change my shoes! For our shoot, I chose to go with fancy, because I really wanted a chance to wear my red heels. Now, you guys know how I feel about bright colors, and how I’m all about the neutrals. But for Valentine’s Day, all that goes out the window. The more pink and red you can put into an outfit, the better. You basically want to look like a walking Hallmark card. It lets people (and your date) know that you are fun, flirty, and LOVE love!

I chose my favorite Valentine’s Day shirt because it’s adorable and so festive, and when else can I wear it?

The pink skirt is one of my favorites, and I thought it looked so nice with my pink shirt. The two different shades of pink were exactly what I was looking for when I was picking out an outfit! The pleats give it a flirty vibe and you absolutely must be flirty on Valentine's Day!

I knew I wanted to wear my red heels, and obviously that meant red lipstick! Gotta keep with the theme. Plus, a red lip is just so classic. 

This outfit was just so much fun. I truly wish it was Valentine’s Day every day! 

Okay, so now that you’ve seen all of these pictures of me and these handsome men, it’s time to guess which one you think is my boyfriend!

Is it Lance? 

Elliot?

Eric? 

Michael?

 Adam?

It’s….. none of them! 

I’m actually not dating any of them, or anyone for that matter! Aren’t you surprised?! I know what you’re thinking, with advice this good, how are you still single? It’s a mystery to me, too. But trust me, I am so qualified to be giving advice on dating and relationships. I have many married friends and you know what they all have in common? Me as their friend! That can’t be a coincidence ;)

I had such a blast shooting with these cute guys. They were such good sports, and I couldn’t have asked for better models and pretend boyfriends.

I hope you guys enjoyed this post, and that you have a wonderful Valentine’s Day! LOVE you all! See you next time!
