Dua Lipa isn't really doing a flashy bride-to-be style era. Instead, the newly engaged pop star is leaning even deeper into her signature "more is more" aesthetic.

On Feb. 12, the "Levitating" singer went to dinner at the London hotspot Chiltern Firehouse with her hunky actor fiancé Callum Turner in tow. These two haven't really hit their stride in the matching celebrity couple outfit department yet. Monochromatic minimalism is probably the best way to describe Turner's wardrobe. Lipa, on the other hand, is a maximalist to her core with a penchant for statement coats, no-pants dressing, and elaborate nail art.

But in recent weeks, there have definitely been signs of sartorial collusion between the two. Take, for instance, the ensembles they put together to gaze lovingly into each other's eyes over seafood and steak tartare. Turner stuck to his usual outfit formula in a navy blue Louis Vuitton blouson, black crewneck sweater, and black trousers. His shoes, however, felt like something Lipa would have chosen for him: Nike Air Max TL2.5 sneakers from the athletic brand's collaboration with Comme des Garcons Homme Plus. The shade of his jacket also felt like an intentional decision to accent Lipa's Bottega Veneta burgundy leather Penny Lane coat with a voluminous shearling collar.

Lipa accessorized her '70s-inspired jacket with black trousers, her diamond signet engagement ring, black Khaite ankle boots with a python print toe cap, and the only carryall that seems to matter this season: the cargo bag trend. In this case, the Albanian beauty went with a quilted black leather Chanel 25 bag. After starring in the French fashion house's campaign for the slouchy trapezoidal purse earlier this month, Lipa was spotted toting it at the airport as well as Paris Fashion Week.

Isn't it kind of moving and powerful when a woman finds her new favorite bag? Love is definitely in the air for Dua Lipa.

Diane Keaton once hung up on Hanna during an interview, but thankfully that mishap did not derail what has otherwise been a deeply fulfilling career writing for and about women.
