Valentine’s day can be so cheesy, right? Even if you are coupled up for the much-talked-about 14th of Feb there’s always too much pressure and the vibe can go from fit to flop as quickly as you can say ‘Cupid’! That’s why here at EGO we are all in for Galentine’s day which takes place the day before, on the 13th of Feb. Just before Cupid and his crazy arrows have the chance to go awry.
You do need to plan it what to do on Galentine’s day though, because getting all your best gals together on this one precious day is never easy. They all have busy schedules, just like you. First things first, send a ‘save the date’ DM and make sure the whole squad is up for it.
A whole day devoted to being together, celebrating friendship & fun is just what you all need. February can be a cold and grey month, but this date is all about good times and letting your gals know they are cherished by exchanging cute gifts and hosting a G-day party or going out in town girlsquad style.
Here at EGO., we’ve come up with five of the very best ways to celebrate Galentine’s day; read on and let the girly love flow.
Hosting at home
Once you’ve got that date in the diary it’s time to plan what you’re going to wear. If you’re hosting a cosy day at yours then the last thing you need is to be uncomfortable. Equally, your gals want to be as relaxed as poss too, this is #squadgoals territory and you need the most comfortable ‘fits. We recommend looking no further than EGO’s inimitable selection of loungewear; it has everything from the comfiest of joggers to the slouchiest of hoodies.
Women celebrating each other, rejoicing in friendship and taking time to chill and spill – the tea, obvs! What better way to slay than to all coordinate your outfits? Wear the super-slouchy Low Rise Fold Over Flared Pants in softest beige alongside the matching top for maximum comfort, or go high glam in High Waist Contrast Joggers paired with the ultra sexy High Neck Long Sleeve Top. Still a comfortable combo for chillin’ but ready to rave if you fancy a night out later. Keep your options open, we say!

Day Drinking never gets old
If you’re all out of ideas for your gal pal get together then going out in town and stalking a few bars can be a great tribute to both your long standing friendships and also your commitment to getting your glam game on! Gather the gals, get on the cosmos and start spillin’ – the goss’ that is, not the cocktails. Here at EGO we have so many outfit ideas for day drinks but the cream of the crop has to be this insane body con Zip Front Detail Jumpsuit in the slinkiest stone hue. Easy to move (and groove) in and thoroughly attention grabbing when you want all eyes on you and your besties.
Bottomless Brunch is a boss babe move for Galentine’s day
If it’s a bottomless brunch vibe you’re searching for the EGO has you covered. We are wearing this Long Sleeved Sheer Knit Dress on repeat at the moment; it’s sooo comfortable – YAY for stretchy knitted pieces – and it will easily take you from cocktail hour to the dance floor. You only need to add the Pointed Toe Knee High Boot to give that leg lengthening, ultra flattering silhouette to sharpen your moves.
If your gals are looking for recommendations and they are up for high glam brunchin’ then you could send them our way too. EGO has so many options for babes who brunch when the style stakes have never been higher. This Utility Style Cropped Jacket is perfect for the mate who always needs a coat, even though you know she’ll abandon it in a flash when the beats beckon later on; it looks ultra matchy matchy when paired with the coordinating Pocket Detail Skirt too. Effortless, utility vibes, right there.

Gifts galore for the girls in your life
Yes, it’s fab to buy beautiful gifts for your crew on their birthdays, but mid-feb is the season of LOVE and honestly, who do you love more than your besties? Getting the right gifts for your group is crucial when showing the love so look no further than EGO’S range of cute slippers and accessories. Our Taupe Faux Fur slippers are so soft and snuggly; you could get a pair for each of your squad and happily slouch around painting your toenails in celebration of the gang being together on the 13th of February. Or, if you’re planning a ‘squad’ summer holiday later in the year, you could get everyone excited and ready to party by gifting cool sunglasses to the whole group. The aviator style has never been more popular, and it never goes out of fashion; these Aviator Style Sunglasses are on point with their chunky frame and tortoise shell print.
Shop ‘til you drop
If you really don’t want to stay home but drinking the day before Valentine’s day might be unwise (date night alert!) then why not head into town with your friends for a full day’s shopping on Galentine’s day? It’s a great way to bond as a group and get ready for all those spring and summer events coming your way.
You want comfort but also glam; don’t worry we have just the outfit ideas for you and your gals. A blazer and jeans combo is what you need and EGO’s selection of blazers is unmatched. From the very sexy Oversized Belted Blazer Dress in timeless stone to the Corseted Blazer dress in sexiest black. You could pair either of these pieces with some y2k style jeans – yes jeans over a blazer-dress, who knew? We love these sexy Wide Leg Two Tone Jeans for their high waisted style – no nasty tummy overhang when the post Christmas bod might be carrying a little ‘holiday weight’ – and their overtly two tone styling.
