Hallmark v reality
I think of Valentines Day with some trepidation.
After all, why do you need someone/some corporation to tell you that February 14th needs to be the day that you need to show your love for your significant other?
I like to think that every day should be the right time to declare your love (from the rooftops, optional) for and to your other. Whilst the day was originally a pagan festival, renamed after two Early Christian martyrs called Valentine, the Hallmarks of this world have elevated the day into a complete palava.
Regardless, I do like to see people enjoying each other's company and cherishing one another. As it should be, right? (this from hippy-Anika ;)
So, I'll go with the flow here (hypocritical much?) and say happy valentines day everyone.....
moving on.....
last week, our big bunch of friends had a house party at the established house party location. We laughed, wined and dined, conversed, and generally had a really good time. I love those kinds of rendevous.
"for the bloody marys? really? they taste sooo good!"
To friendship!

The top is perfect! I like how you paired it wit denim ;)
The Dark transparencies of your Top are (delightfully) full of a Sexy subtlety, AND your shoes "fetishistically" instil a "terrestrial Siren" touch on your silhouette !!!
ps: Just in case, the english translation of (an extract of) my "fashionisto sulfurous Fragments of Writing" is on "stilettosteticooooooo" !!!

Your shoes are so cute. You look gorgeous!
I really like your hair! Happy V-Day!
Fabulous assortment of bangles! And I love those shoes too - I have a bit of an obsession with Siren actually. They make great knockoffs lol!

I totally agree about valentine's day- bf or not, I never take part in the festivities as it puts unecessary pressure on the significant other- instead, my mom is my valentine every year ;)
