Valentine’s Day Dappers

Happy Valentine’s Day! For all you anti-Valentine’s Day readers out there, I apologize right now, but I am the ULTIMATE sucker for romance. So, I’ve asked some of the dapper couples we’ve featured over the past couple of years and some of our blogging allies to share their warm and fuzzies with us. Wait! You must first set the mood. Tom Jones, anyone?

Did you hit play? Are you ready? Ok, go:

Shereen and SkylerWe’re #TeamSkyreen
Shereen Jenkins, 17  & Skyler Ortiz, 17, both high school Juniors. Our one year anniversary is on Valentines Day. We met on Afterellen.com, found out we lived close to each other, and met up. Skyler asked me out on February 14th, 2012 <3
