Love is in the air! I can almost feel it - Valentine's Day, that is! It is so near so the city is now abuzz with plenty of couples who will enjoy the special day.  And if you and your partner are planning a simple dinner date this Valentine's Day, I am sure that you are already wondering what to wear to a casual dinner date that you do not have to break the bank.

Your outfit does not have to be very fancy to be able to enjoy a special dinner date with your special someone.  It is just a matter of wearing something decent that will make you feel comfortable and confident at the same time. And if you are in the mood to wear something nice with a tint of red for the momentous occasion, then below are casual dinner date dresses ideas for you.

Accentuate this lovely, flowing chiffon dress with a small clutch or purse like this small black wallet/purse.

And these floral earrings will look pretty as part of the whole ensemble.

This dress will look best with this pearl pendant and necklace!

Pair this very dainty floral dress with a simple but elegant Salvatore Ferragamo evening clutch to complete the look!

You can wear something plain too and accentuate with accessories like a nice clutch bag, a small shoulder bag, a gold necklace, and earrings to add flair to your outfit.

Dress nicely, feel good and enjoy Love Day with your special someone!

Yahoo's Auto Compose A Valentine Message Feature

The last time I checked before dozing off was my yahoo account for any pending assignments that I might have missed last night. So, as soon as I got up, I checked my mail right away and I saw a tiny heart pulsating each time my mouse hovers it.


I got curious because it said "Auto Compose a Valentine Message." So I thought, this should be interesting. True enough, it is interesting and cute at the same time because once you click the throbbing heart, you will be directed to a new message. There's a tab in the lower part of the screen towards the left where you can choose the type of message you like to send out.


I tried all of them (but didn't send to anyone) just to see what was written. There are 3 choices on the drop down menu:


Crazy in Love



Friendly Love



All Outta Love



They are cute, funny and witty especially the All Outta Love. They kept changing so if you change your mind about the message, just select again from the drop down menu and you'll get a different message; maybe funnier or cringe-worthy next time.




Check it out! I might just send something to my dear hubby if everything else fails me!
