Belt - vintage, charity shop

A belated Valentine's post. My mum gave me this vintage Valentines card last year. It was given to my maternal grandmother by my grandfather. I like the unusual shape and lack of tackiness. Generally I would go for red and black for Valentine's, but this year i decided to take inspiration from the card and go for a more softer palette, which i actually really like. This dress you've seen before and cardigan is borrowed from the shop. The belt and brooch are both from the same Devon charity shop on the same day, which I've only just realised. I decided to make some pink macaroons for the day too, and they weren't bad. Although they are a serious sugar hit. Next time I want to try a chocolate and pistachio recipe.

Bring me roses..

Apologies for me extended absence, moving house plus no Internet for a couple of weeks is what's to blame, I have been really missing catching up with all your blogs! So until a working connection is restored, hopefully on Thursday) here's a little, rather belated, valentine's shop update. Fingers crossed I will be back with more regular posting by the end of the week.
