The second image reminds me of perfect card ideas for Valentine’s day coming up!
sources unknown [if you know, let me know!]
Honestly, lovely colours, vibrant energy, gorgeous details… all these things make me feel so happy!
PLUS! I’m totally loving:
Not only is the Chemise gorgeous, but I love the gift box as well. This overall design, the pink and the delicate details are so me! I need a boyfriend to buy me this… :/
Speaking of which, Valentine’s Day is coming up (oh no, have you forgotten?). And while previous years I haven’t had a sweetheart to celebrate with, this year I do!
But don’t get too excited. One of my best friends and I, my gorgeous friend Shahana, have decided to be each other’s valentines. Because why not? There’s no boys spoiling us, and if we had boys, we wouldn’t be the ones spoiling them (what straight guy in New Zealand is sentimental enough to let *us* flood them with pretty girly things? Someone find me one!). So this year we get to be as sentimental, sappy and excited as we like without worrying if our significant other is going to find it too cheesy or too girly.
So this is what I plan to do for Shahana:
1.
Have a picnic at the Hamilton gardens, granted that it’s a warm summer’s day still.
2.
Give her chocolate and/or flowers (the standard)
3.
Give her a special gift—a mix tape of “our” and my favourite songs, CD case decorated with pretty embellishments
4.
Write her an ever-so-romantic love letter (or at least take a famous one from some dark-ages Duke and re-write it :P)
The best thing about Shahana and my friendship is that we sometimes act like lovers, but never in a physical way. It’s like getting the benefits of love without having to be lesbian. Girls, your best friends are more important than fashion, diamonds or your entire shoe collection. Treat them well <3.
If you don’t have anyone to share Valentine’s day with this year, why don’t you do something similar with your bestie? It’s innocent, fun and best of all—you don’t miss out on the hype of V-day :)
