prep for valentine's day, sweethearts

Monday is the heart day!
I'm a big fan of Valentine's Day's color scheme.
But- that is just about where my fondness for said holiday ends.

I'm all for reds and pinks, golds and purples 
(does purple count? i always count purple...)
 and the more sparkles, the better.
Whether you are going out with your sweetheart or having a sparkly night out
with your best girls, it certainly is fun to dress for the holiday.

Here's a perfect look for any February 14th plans:



It wouldn't be Valentine's without some sweets.
These beautiful mini cakes recreate the look of a box of chocolates.
I don't know a gal who wouldn't LOVE to receive these treats.



 The gold plated cakes are adorable.
I'm drooling.

YUM.
Also, I came across these adorable chocolate covered strawberries on my friend Ashley's blog.
They're the most precious things ever.  If I was more brave, I'd attempt them myself.

Some bling for all my single ladies...

So, if you want to share your declaration of love and your budget doesn't allow too much stretching-
Check out these adorable e-valentines from Kate Spade.
I've already sent out a number of them to my nearest + dearest.


Enjoy your frills + your chocolates.
And remind all your valentines how much you love them everyday, 
not just mandated commercialized holidays..
 Happy Valentine's Day!

tell me what ya want, what ya really really want...

Everyone loves some Spice Girls lyrics. 
 Here are some items I am lusting after, all of which would add some spice to my life.

I was gifted a knit headband like this one a couple days ago, and I am still trying to work it the right way.  However, it looks flawless on this model. Wish me luck on this experiment.

Perfect Valentine's Day shoes, from Nordstrom, that would spice up your favorite LBD.

I am going to attempt to recreate this simple, yet feminine and edgy look with my own wardrobe.  I love it and it fits in nicely with my new affinity for stripes.

I adore and hope some day to own such a wonderfully cute and organized bookshelf.  And the white deer head is a contemporary addition I enjoy.
