If you’ll take any excuse to get dolled up, February is the month to break out your girliest pieces just in time for V-Day. But sometimes a red-and-pink outfit covered in hearts isn’t age-appropriate! Go for one of these understated heart items this month and instead of being mistaken for a 12-year-old, you might not even get carded during your romantic V-Day dinner (or Singles Awareness Day cocktails with the girls).

If you don’t have the cash (or the boyfriend with the cash) to get real gold on V-day, the big heart on Modcloth.com’s State of the Heart Top ($49.99) will do the trick!
