29 Cozy Outfits That Are Perfect for February Date Nights
1/31It shouldn’t come as a surprise that the month of February puts us in kind of a romantic mood. We’re craving long, ambling nights spent with people we adore — both romantic interests and friends.
Those of you in Southern locales hardly have to adjust your wardrobes as the grip of winter gets stronger, but for the rest of us? Date nights, girls’ night out, happy hour: They all require a little extra effort to accompany the extra layers if you want to avoid looking like a talking marshmallow.
The good news is that there are plenty of ways to bundle up and be warm while still looking feminine, cool, edgy, classic, bohemian — whatever adjective you might use to describe your personal style.
For each of the 29 days of February (don’t forget it’s a leap year!), we found 29 stylish and layered-up looks worn recently by our favorite celebrities, It Girls, models and bloggers that are perfect for your next hot date or that big Singles Awareness Day party you’re planning with your girlfriends.

Thigh-high boots and an edgy shearling coat take a plaid skirt from school girl to cool girl — perfect for a day date on a chilly afternoon.

A white dress totally works for winter (especially for evening) — just add tights.

Leather gets a ladylike touch when you add pleats, and a coordinating turtleneck gives your look even more of a cozy, date-worthy look.
8/31Jenny Bernheim
Go ultra-feminine in a full skirt, short fur coat and sparkling accessories.

Here’s proof that a black-on-black leopard print bomber jacket is the date night cover-up you never knew you needed.
10/31Blair Eadie
In a muted silvery bronze, a fully-sequined dress isn’t as dramatic as it sounds. The blousy sleeves and belted waist of this dress make it more Paris than Vegas.
11/31Jacey Duprie
With a romantic tie around the neck and one more undone button, even a striped blouse can be perfect for date night. Tuck it in, add pumps and you’re out the door.

Dress up a sweater and boyfriend jeans for a night out by adding sexy lace-up pumps and a glamorous faux fur coat.
13/31Danielle Bernstein
Break up an all-black ensemble with a printed mini skirt — and don’t forget, thigh-high boots are perfect for keeping bare legs warm in cold months. (You can also layer up with nude tights.)
14/31Sandra Hagelstam
Never underestimate the power of a perfectly cozy and super-fitted knit dress.
GC Images15/31Bella Hadid
Channel a '90s teenage dream date by tucking a white off-the-shoulder top into high-waisted mid-wash jeans.

For a festive night out or dressy party, we’re big fans of skipping the dress and opting for a statement-making jumpsuit.
GC Images17/31Lucy Hale
It doesn’t get much prettier (or on trend!) than layering a peek-a-boo red lace dress with t-strap pumps and a classic camel coat. Timeless, gorgeous and perfect for Valentine’s Day!
18/31Rach Parcell
Blush and black are two colors that play very well together, so go ahead and layer them on. A cropped jacket and super skinny jeans create a flattering silhouette.
19/31Julia Engel
Ditch your usual jeans for a pair of statement-making sequin pants. They’re easier to wear than you think: Just throw on a cozy sweater and or blousy top and a wool topcoat.
20/31Aimee Song
Sometimes the coat makes the look. For a winter day date, layer a colorful robe coat over a sweater (that reveals a peek of lace) and jeans.
GC Images21/31Dakota Johnson
A tunic-length top, legging jeans and OTK boots might just be the easiest date night look, ever. Add a punchy lipstick for bonus points.

Leather leggings (or coated denim) are a great alternative to blue jeans, and with a black faux fur topper you’ll feel like a date night superstar.
23/31Alicia Lund
If you’re digging the current '70s revival, try pairing a velvet top and flares for your next romantic outing.
24/31Shea Marie
Sweater dresses get a sassy upgrade when employed with tights and a thigh-high slit. Keep things grounded with a pair of chunky boots.
25/31Kat Tanita
Boyfriend jeans instantly become date (and winter) ready when you add a sleek topcoat and cozy beanie.

It’s a known fact that any outfit looks better with a bold red lip — especially when there’s a leather jacket involved.

Wide-leg trousers make for a surprisingly flattering alternative to your usual skinny jeans routine. Style them with a tucked-in top and pointed-toe heels to keep your silhouette long and lean.
Getty Images28/31Jamie Chung
A knit midi skirt makes a charming (and warm) alternative to a mini skirt. Try pairing one with funky, slightly-above-the-ankle boots.
GC Images29/31Vanessa Hudgens
Getting dressed for an extra-chilly date night? Layer your leather jacket under a longer wool (or faux fur) coat.
30/31Vanessa Hong
Olive green makes for a great alternative to your usual all-black date outfit, and will play well with almost any other color in your wardrobe.
