Valentines Day 2014

Love is... what is it?

Love is the feeling when you can't wait for the day to start, 

Love is when you feel the butterflies in your veins,

Love is when you forget about those pains,

Love is when you forget your bleeding heart,

Love is that feeling that lifts you up when you're down,

Love is when you can't say a name without flushing,

Love is when you deny you're totally crushing,

In those eyes is where you constantly drown,

On this Valentines Day,

Convey those cherished feelings of joy,

But try not to annoy,

Those soloists in the cafe.

A bit of poetry, a little bit soppy- but who isn't soppy on Valentines Day! I'm taking part in my first www.mellowmummy.co.uk 's blog carnival and I hope you check out the other posts in the carnival!
Personally, I'm not really sure what is love as I've never really experienced it, romantically. Is love an emotion or a feeling?

Or is it just an excuse to wear lush, red and pink dresses? Whilst eating pizza and crying at Rom Com's? Yep, probably. Speaking of pink dresses and lush outfits- does this take your fancy?

Bargains!

Been a bit behind on the Valentines Day advent, but for the big day here's the final bargain :) Don't want this to drag over...

On Valentines Day, Cupid gave to me... a Floral silicone iPhone 4S case :)

Cheap and cheerful- only 95p. The case embodies expensive £20 cases; for a fraction of the cost. Look no further fashionistas, cute butterflies are always in style. A must-have for the girl who's forever texting, tweeting or talking! What I love about this phone case is it's robust protection and it also has access to the camera. Perfect for those instagramming needs.

VDay advent day 5

On the fifth day of Valentines, Cupid gave to me... a Glamour Pucker Ducks lip gloss.

We've gone ducking mad for these lip gloss's! The moisturising lip gloss is stored in an adorable duck shaped lip gloss pot. The gloss is available in five flavours: strawberry, plum, blueberry, toffee and vanilla. The gift is perfect for the glamour puss in the family (or you if you are the glamour puss!). Priced at a reasonable £1.99; there's no excuse for chapped lips girls. And guys take note. This moisturing lip gloss will preserve those chapped lips through winter- a harsh and corrosive time for the lips. Lips get dry very quickly in winter.
Check out the link below for more info, no-one wants to be an ugly duckling!

Valentines Advent

On the fourth day of Valentines, Cupid gave to me... a Nicki Minaj sleeveless t-shirt!


All hail; The Queen of the Barbies has arrived onto the blog. Can totally imagine this hipster tee, with burgundy skinny jeans and maybe pink coverses? Hey Nicki adores pink, so go all out. The T-shirt itself comes in sizes 8-14; infact the 12-14 sizes are cheaper than the others being reasonably priced at £5.95. For size 8-10 it's £6.95.

Valentines Day Advent

On the 2nd day of Valentines, Cupid gave to me... a Gola floral shoulder bag!

Ok it's over the budget I allow on the blog; but it's Valentines Day and who knows, you can always email the link to your friends. Hint hint ;) The bag is quite hipster like, which is cool as you rarely see many Gola bags for girls. It comes in Ecru and is the perfect size for a school bag. Gola was very successful in the 70's and the clothes have been adapted to modern tastes- but they still have a retro sparkle to them. It's £25, but if you have a look in the green box it mentions getting a discount on clothing. So check that out!


And on the 3rd day of Valentines, Cupid gave to me... Pink & White Jelly Hearts!
What's Valentines Day without sugar? These are strawberry and vanilla flavoured treats, perfect for a fashionista on the go. They come in various different quantities; the smallest being £2.25 and largest £6.10 which isn't a massive difference. They are large and have a luxurious, glossy effect to them. If you're crafty or looking for a gift for that special someone- these would look cute in a glass jar, tied with ribbon. I'm sure no-one would turn down sweets!

Advent calender!

It's a week till Valentines day, or if you're single just a normal Thursday. To celebrate this I thought I'd do a countdown each day; posting a pink/red themed item each day. Today's kinda cheating.
On the 1st day of St. Valentines Day, Cupid gave to me...

A Pink CD!
Featuring all her hits over the last 10 years, including Like a pill, Get The Party started and Perfect. The album is under £5 so there's no excuse to let loose and get Pink-fied. Click the link below to check out awesome product reviews if you're unsure :)
