My Valentine

Treasury Tuesday – A Subtle Romance Lingers

Last week was Valentine's and I had the sweetest time with my hubs (see that post). Now that the day set aside for love has past, don't think that all romance has left with it. Oh no, a subtle yet solid romance will continue on until that day comes again. 

This collection of softly feminine items was curated by Noga from Piri Piri. All of these could serve as a daily reminder of love and romance. I especially love the lingerie (they were featured recently here) and the lavender sachets (also featured recently here). My wee vintage button bobby pins ("Brown Sugar") were included and look just darling against the blush and rose of all these lovelies.

Last Week's Treasury:

A Pastel Valentine's Day

The Sunday Snag – Spring Sweetheart

Spring is just around the corner and here is a dress I snagged this winter in anticipation!

I purchased this sheer abstract floral piece from Zwzzy and it is just darling. It's a 1950's like style (possibly 80's? Not sure.) with a high neckline, capped sleeves, and shell buttons. This is ideal for dancing! I can unbutton the top to wherever I feel comfortable and I can unbutton the bottom to create a front slit for my legs to move easily. Plus, it is sheer so I can wear a light slip underneath and not get so hot! After trying it on, I did decide to shorten the skirt as it was about 5" below my knee, but after the hem it is pretty perfect and ready for spring!

Romance, Big and Small

Saturday Special – Look What the Hubs Did!

Valentine's Day was a real treat this year! The hubs and I don't usually do a lot, but this time he did the absolute sweetest thing. He made a brunch menu with all kinds of tasty goodies and let me choose which ones I wanted him to make. And they weren't choices like cereal, folks! It was fancy!

Here is what I choose: 

Starter: Scottish Oat Scones (with cream and jam)

Starter: Goat Cheese Salad (I wanted two starters, don't judge)

Savory: Apple Bacon Cheddar Frittata

Sweet: Challah French Toast

Beverage: Breakfast Tea and Peach Bellini

I haven't been feeling very well the last few days (cold or something), so this was so nice. We just took the whole day off and watched movies together and ate a progressive brunch. He even took out the pretty china! Man, I love this guy!
