Topshop £28
With Converse high tops
I texted all my friends wishing them a 'Happy Valentines Day!' and then skipped off to work. My little sister got twelve red roses and a card from a secret admirer but she wasn't very interested. It reminded me of when I was in high school and boys would push Valentines cards under my locker door and my Gran would always send me a card in the post even though I saw her everyday and pretend it wasn't her. I love the tradition of sending someone a card and signing it 'From a secret admirer' and I definitely sent a few when I was little, covered in glitter and written in scented gel pens. I really hope people still send them in the future, getting a facebook 'poke' really isn't the same thing.
I watched 'Valentine's Day' with one of my friends in the week just because I was so excited and I'm loving romantic comedies at the minute. My favourite character is played by Jessica Biel and is a PR exec who hates Valentines Day and sets up an annual party for her and her single friends with a massive heart pinnate. However, this year she has a big melt down on a reporter played by Jamie Fox and they both bond over their hatred for the day and he turns up to her party that evening and I assume they fall head over heels in love. It's not ground breaking but if you're looking for something nice and filled with famous people then it's a good one to watch with a mug of hot chocolate.
My sister and I made Valentine's cakes the night before and I made a flower! It looks really difficult but it was actually pretty easy although it looks far too good to eat! We also made Lilo and Stitch and Minnie and Mickey Mouse cakes.
I was literally covered in icing sugar from head to toe and everything in the kitchen got covered in cake mix from mittens to the dog.
Make up wise I went for a smokey gold eye inspired by this picture:
It so didn't go at all how it was meant to! It did look really dark in real life but the picture doesn't really show the colours and I didn't go as dark as I could have done because my eyes don't really suit super dark colours. But if I'm going out I would definitely go to town and do it properly. I wish there were more looks for people with blue eyes, I feel like any dark eye make up styles are always done on people with dark eyes but you can't always get away with the same shades on lighter coloured eyes.
Anyway, I'm staying in with my Valentines date (my mum) and watching 'The Vow', the only chick flick I can persuade her to watch and that was only because it has Channing Tatum in it. Not that I'm complaining!
