When we think about the mood of February, like most people we begin with the thought of Valentine’s Day. And love, and passion, and red. Add to that the Hollywood awards season and the red carpet fashion parade, and you’ve got a great case for wearing crimson all month.

Upon further reflection, though, we think there’s more to February than red. Snow, for one thing. So winter white feels important to have in the mix. Slate grey is part of the reality of February for any of us living in the Northern Hemisphere: cloudy skies, slushy sidewalks. You know what we mean.

Even more than those, though, we have a great deal of conviction around the idea of pink in February. In addition to Valentine’s Day cards and candies, you’ll find pink in the wild during the month if you look for it. It’s there in the dawn sky. And at early dusk. And almost always in the new spring fashion collections.

So why not make your style direction this month a mash-up of all of these elements? Here are 5 ways to face February fearlessly. And with a light spirit. Whether its for work, off-duty adventures, chilling out on the weekend, date night or a quick vacation over a long weekend, if you get stuck and need inspiration, just go with one of these ideas.

And don’t despair. There’s plenty of fun to be had this month – especially if you dress for it.

color palettes and inspiration for what to wear in February 2022

1. fashion color palette February 2022: Wine and roses

One of our favorite color combinations of all time is pink and red. Any shade of pink. And any shade of red. But right now, especially deep Cabernet reds that are almost purple. And pinks that are a nod to the fragrant roses of June.

If you’re up for days of wine and roses, here are some gorgeous pieces to layer into your existing wardrobe. What winter blues? 

The Vampire’s Wife has nailed dark Gothic romance, and this dress ($1,815) is the perfect embodiment of the aesthetic. Ganni’s pink vest ($200) would pair well with a crisp white shirt. Wales Bonner’s crocheted cotton top ($650) and coordinating midi skirt ($710) are a sophisticated play on resort wear. And we love Staud’s two-tone sweater dress ($195).

You can even carry this idea into your top drawer. For example, with this silk and satin bra ($88) and coordinating briefs ($62) from Araks.

Accessorize with this Chloe quartz and leather necklace ($760). Bottega Veneta’s deep rich burgundy tote ($2,950). These pink, red and burgundy ear cuffs ($330) or these red and burgundy mismatched earrings ($500) from Bea Bongiasca. Toss on an overcoat and perhaps these Bottega Veneta sunglasses ($440) or a Burberry’s checked scarf ($550) and you’re good to go!

2. fashion color palette February 2022: Love, love, love

Hearts, lips, and declarations of love are all over the luxury designer collections right now. If you don’t wear your heart on your sleeve in February, when will you? Here’s how to do it without sacrificing chic.

Play it soft with Love Shack Fancy’s heart-patterned cropped cardigan ($395). Or Gucci’s blossom-pink heart-shaped crystal and metal sunglasses ($1,230) or silk scarf ($200).

Nothing says “summer romance” like a beach caftan festooned with hearts, like this one ($650) from La Vie Style House. Wilhelmina Garcia’s pink heart signet ring ($152) is an instant mood-booster. So is the heart-shaped buckle on this silk-cord belt ($775) from Sonia Petroff.

Channel a Pop Art vibe with these Isabel Marant pink heart-shaped earrings ($280). And add some fun to your date night look with Anya Hindmarch’s joyful satin tote ($1,121) or Olympia Le-Tan’s book clutch embroidered with an image of Gustav Klimt’s The Kiss ($1,343). Feeling really extra? Go for Judith Leiber’s crystal-embellished clutch ($2,472) shaped as a golden heart. Or the one that looks like bright red lips ($4,295).

3. fashion color palette February 2022: Luxury Hygge

Celebrate what’s left of snow season with cuddly looks perfect for apres-ski. Chilling at home. Or on the plane.

Take the coziness of home to work with this chic shirt dress from Gucci ($4,800). Or maybe this Anna Quan sweater dress (which can also be worn as a long cardigan – $500). Keep the look going off-duty and bring it to the beach in this bohemian crochet cover-up from Sara Christina ($480).

The “shacket” is the new “it” outerwear (thank you, TikTok). Here’s a yummy one perfect for February: Stand Studio’s faux shearling shirt jacket in winter white ($795).

Think cozy winter white sweaters like this cardigan from Isabel Marant Étoile ($740), perhaps paired with joggers like this pair from Max Mara Leisure ($235). This down puffer coat from Moncler ($1,370) is snowy-chic incarnate.

4. fashion color palette February 2022: Pink paradise

The color pink can be sweet, sassy, sexy, even serious – it all depends on how you style it. For February fashion, there’s a pink for every possible mood and occasion.

Date night demands something like this hot pink floral mini dress ($395) from Acler. For a beach escape, we vote for this charming seersucker maillot ($395) from Lisa Marie Fernandez. Sweater vests were a key trend last fall, and they seem to have staying power. So how about this raspberry iteration from Ganni for this spring? Or opt for a simple blush pink cardigan like this one from Extreme Cashmere ($452).

Neon colors are everywhere for Spring Summer 2022, so this pink coat from Loewe ($3,400) will set you up perfectly to be on-trend all the way through spring. Or if you live in particularly cold climes, invest in this playful puffer coat from Ganni ($428). It’s made from recycled fibers.

Accessorize with a new V-logo shoulder bag from Valentino Garavani ($1,200). Or Balenciaga’s faux-leather pink chunky-sole trainers with a fluffy faux-fur lining ($1,150). We love these Completedworks earrings, made from recycled 14kt gold-plated sterling silver and freshwater pearls.
