Dating Dilemmas: Making the Most of Valentine's Day in Lockdown

TYNE AND WEAR, U.K. - EntSun -- With the pandemic continuing to affect our everyday lives, Valentine's Day will be like no other in 2021. With the UK being placed in another lockdown, it's difficult to determine how we'll be able to spend Valentine's Day this year depending on restrictions. However, just because the typical dining night out or trip to the cinema might not be possible, it doesn't mean to say that this Valentine's Day can't be made a special one

Whether you have a special someone to spend the day with or are going solo this Valentine's Day, we discuss how to treat either yourself or your partner.

What should I do instead of eating out?

Since restaurants remain temporarily closed, finding a romantic alternative to having a fine dining experience with your partner may be more of a challenge than usual.

However, you could always bring the restaurant home to you. Purchase a new cookbook or two this Valentine's Day and cook up a three-course meal with your partner in the kitchen. Then, transform your dining room into a romantic setting with some candle-lit lighting, background music, and a fancy table display.

What should I wear for a FaceTime date?

Since physically attending a first date isn't possible right now, you might have organised one to take place over a FaceTime call on Valentine's Day this year. If so, finding an outfit that is smart, but not too smart considering you're still at home, is not an easy task.

The term 'smart casual' can never be taken too literally in this case. Women could style a high neck, knitted jumper with a pair of leggings and cosy socks, making for the perfect winter apparel that is smart but not too fancy. Or, you could even sport one of your casual day dresses (https://www.missluna.co.uk/dresses/day-dresses.html) with a pair of tights and some slipper boots for an outfit that is both stylish yet comfy. As for the men, your favourite button-down shirt paired with chinos or jeans is an ideal smart-casual look that is still comfortable enough to wear to the lounge. Don't forget your slippers!
