Me and my boyfriend don't go OTT. We did a little more in the first couple of years we were together, but as the years are passing by, we are doing less and less. Maybe it's a case of me getting older and not being as bothered and not getting caught up in the social hype of it all, who knows?
Valentines day creates a lot of debate. Some people argue that there shouldn't be a day dedicated to showing the ones we love 'how much' we really love them, because it should be like that every day. For others its a bittersweet day, a reminder of what they once had. For some it can bring bad or sad memories for many reasons.
Either way, here is a selection of potential gifts I chose, and for all the single ladies (put your hands up! Sorry, couldn't resist!) use it as a treat day ;-)
Middle Row L-R: Bea overknee heart tights, Topshop lace balconette bra, Vera Wang Princess Night
Bottom Row L-R: A random bunch of pink roses! MAC sheen supreme lipstick 'behave yourself', a candle-lit bath that I wish was mine!
How will you be spending Valentines day?
Don't also forget that it's a leap year this year which means girls who are tired of waiting for a proposal can take control and do it themselves on February 29th! But lets be honest, which girl would do that?
I wouldn't mind getting any of those gifts!
ReplyDeleteValentines day is such a cute and sweet day I really don't get why some people talk trash about it. Even though I'm single I still celebrate Valentines with one of my best friends. I believe it's a day to treat yourself with whatever you'd like - I'd never just sit at home a pretend it's like any other day.
Obviously it's that much more special when you have a partner to share it with but I still find it really cute so being single definitely won't stop me from celebrating x
I really like your blog just stumbled across it :) You've scored yourself another follower x
Have a lovely Friday!
I agree! Welcome and thanks for following!

I had no idea about the woman being able to propose on the 29th, so strange!
ReplyDeleteBut you're right, I doubt most woman would do that!
Cute blog, definitely going to follow <333
Aw valentines day is nice. My boyfriend isn't what you would call romantic, where as me, I buy into all the slushy stuff :)
ReplyDeleteI understand where people come from saying you should be able to treat your SO everyday. But we all have days we take them for granted, it's nice to just have a specific day you can spend time together and remember why you love them :)
