The Alternative Valentine Gifts

 

With loveheart day fast approaching (which I intensely loathe), especially as I am not a flowers person, I have been thinking what my alternate gift list would be. Men forget taking out the bins -get the flowers and the chocolates and one of the below and I am sure there will be love a-plenty in the air.

1 Zaggora capri pants – okay was loving the hotpants but love love the capri pants. Have been wearing them like leggings and the piece de resistance was that I can now fit into the size 10 evening gown that I foolishly bought when I was 36 weeks pregnant and cried over. I promise to post pictures after sister-in-law’s wedding.  http://zaggora.com - remember you can get 10% off if you and type SBPRINCE at the checkout.

2 When TD was 7 weeks, I had to squeeze into several evening dresses for my brother’s wedding days (!), but as I could not exercise and had to eat healthily, I turned to the lovely Jane of Janeplan – www.janeplan.com who delivered to my door a month’s supply of meals and snacks that would help me be healthy but help me lost weight. Jane is offering all my friends free delivery if you mention me when ordering from her.

3 Bee venom mask – still loving this too. As Princess A and TD have been playing tag in the waking on alternate nights, my skin has suffered and with work and meetings, so have turned to this to give me a boost.  Deborah Mitchell and heaven is where it is at.

4 Something cheeky  – now my sense of cheekiness ranges far! But gorgeous undies which are comfortable are something  women do want. Crotchless pants and tassle bra – no thank you..

5 Some me time… whatever way this can be obtained and then some you and he time… that is far harder.

6 An evening a deux (see 5 above) – and I so want to go to Nightjar, which my lovely friend Helen has blogged about.. looks very very cool. see Helen at thislondonladyloves.blogspot.com

7 Or an evening with good and old friends – which is where his nibs and I will be on Valentine’s night. Wine, food and chat – lovely.

8 What else… support for my charity causes but everyone knows about those already.

I can think of plenty more…. but whatever you do/get - just enjoy.
