A Sartorial Valentine

Valentine's Day is coming up and as usual I'm fretting about what to wear. So, as I am mulling this over it hits me: why not make a blog post about it? Well not about what I am going to wear about per se, but some recommendations for my loyal readers. (All the clothing of course being available in sizes starting from size 14.) I am hoping to make this a regular weekly posting and in the future maybe expand it to answer reader questions. Well if I ever get any readers other than my oh so wonderful offline friends. HI GUYS!

Back to the post at hand. So, in honor of Valentine's Day here's an outfit I feel would go great for a casual VDAY date. I made it myself in photoshop, so please don't get disturbed by the Frankensteined image you see to the right.
