Bah To The Humbug: Valentine's Day Ideas

Just in case you are living under a rock, or hiding under a rock - like me, then you may not be aware that it's Valentine's Day on Tuesday.

Who cares?
Bah humbug!
Boo! Hiss!
Rack off PMM!

Yes. That's sort of what I think too.
We're just not that into Val Day.
But just in case you are looking for a way to declare your undying love to someone secret, or even someone not so secret, here's some ideas to woo the woo-ee.

Who wouldn't want to curl up with an amorous lover when their bedroom looked like this? Snaffle these pillowcases from Salvation Jane (hotel quality - AYE CARUMBA!) $39

Say 'Aye carumba' with this Victoria Mason necklace (she's offering 15% off heart related goodies until V-Day) - $77

Diamonds are - after all - a girl's best friend. Diamond ceramic brooch from - Georgie Love $40

They say the way to a man's stomach is through his heart (see what I did there?) Court your lover the old fashioned way with a Champagne Afternoon tea at the QVB Tea Room - $124

The Miranda Sweetheart dress for your sweetheart? OH YES PLEASE! Gorman $299

Not good with words? Say it with a print. Famille Summerbelle Blue Love Bugs print from Tiny Bird - $79

Go traditional with fragrance. Gypsy Water from Mecca Cosmetica - $158

And so yes, this list is late - but then so are you if you haven't purchased yet. So we can be fashionably late together. Correctomondo?
