Happy Valentine's Day

I used to hate the idea of Valentine’s Day. The whole over commercialised Clinton created mess used to make me feel ill. I hated the idea that companies had managed to make ‘love’ about chocolates, roses or teddy bears and that there was this pressure to spend money on your other half on things that were tacky and would wilt or be eaten in a matter of days (Or Minutes!).

However, I have started to warm towards Valentine’s Day as it gives us the chance the chance to be silly, throw a party and celebrate the Disney/ Pride and Prejudice and frankly unrealistic cutsey love. Valentine’s Day can be a lot of fun, and one of the only days in the British calendar where extreme tackiness is permitted.

This is why tomorrow, I will be wearing everything pink and red and heart patterned that I can find and a big smile! This is because I am spending Valentine’s Day with the people I love, and am going to have the most fantastic time doing it.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
