So, it's Valentines Day tomorrow. I love my boyfriend but he'd fully admit that present buying is certainly not his strong point. Let's see...Christmas 2011 - a pack of nail varnishes, 3 different shades of black, 3 different shades of opaque off-white. A (clearly used and already returned) basket of smelly toiletries - given to me no less than a week after a good ten minute conversation we had about how useless said tiny toiletries are whilst i was throwing about twenty of them into our bin. Michael Bublé's (unofficial) biography. When I asked where he'd found all these treats, he proudly told me TK MAXX. (For those reading this in the US - think Walmart). Followed closely by "They're all popular Christmas presents, they were all on the one stand right next to the door!". Boy, was i glad i'd bought him a weekend away...
Now, in our relationship present giving has kind of turned rather amusing...in that he gets sweaty palms just at the thought of it and I get so nervous of the outcome that i basically just tell him what i want. To be fair, he's come a long way since that Christmas, and he's a gem so it's all good. My advice - to myself and to you - is go pick yourself out something pretty and enjoy whatever comes your way from your loved one because no matter what it is, it's the thought that counts. What am i saying? Just ask for reciepts!
Here's some beauties that have caught my eye, covering a range of costs, and including a right bobby dazzler at the end should you want that extra special Valentines this year...!
