Show Me Some Love!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY to all of my lovely readers. Depending on your relationship status, Valentine's Day is either a joyous day filled with gifts and affection from your S.O. (significant other) or it's just another day.  As a single lady, it's the latter for me and ironically, all of my friends.  We used to have a tradition of all the single ladies getting together and wining and dining ourselves but seeing all of the couples, flowers, and heart shaped balloons was sometimes too much for even the strongest of us to bear.  I've since decided that as long as I'm single, I'm going to make V-Day all about me.  I'm gonna show myself some love!  I use the day to pamper myself and buy pretty things.  I mean, let's be honest, a pair of red suede pumps trumps a dozen red roses on any day LOL.  Here are a few of my favorite items this year. What are your plans for Valentine's Day?
