You know, it’s great to celebrate V-Day with traditional items like candy, red lace lingerie, and teddy bears, but what about those of us that don’t celebrate it? It’s really just another day, albeit perhaps even slightly annoying even, if you’re not into it or have any plans. Ladies, let’s reclaim the holiday.
This year, I propose dedicating Valentine’s Day to more of a “treat yourself” day; go for that spa treatment you’ve been meaning to try for ages, eat something a little indulgent, and buy yourself something nice, because when it comes down to it, you REALLY deserve it!
Here’s a few items that may be vaguely reminiscent of that February 14th holiday, however we’ve carefully peppered in a handful of fashionable items that will work for you WAY beyond that single day.
