Girls don’t want flowers for Valentine’s Day
They want vintage books, Magda Butrym clothes, Chanel Rouge Noir make up collection and crochet gloves.
Lately, I’ve been thinking about how cliché some Valentine’s gifts are — like heart-shaped necklaces. Here are a few ideas that mix nostalgia with romance and a personal touch, like…
A vintage book, thrifted from an antique bookstore. It could be an old Pride and Prejudice or anything you find interesting.
Speaking of books — the Elsa Peretti x Tiffany bookmark. If you want something heart-shaped, try this instead of a necklace.
A passe-partout frame with your photo, but in an analog filter.
A vintage jewelry case thrifted from a flea market — it can be any aesthetic object, like a 19th-century butter dish (basically, anything you thrift will feel romantic).
A vintage train ride — book a ticket on one of the old-school trains, like the British Pullman and so on.
Crochet gloves. These are from Valentino, but I’d look for more affordable ones on Etsy.
Magda Butrym rose earrings — which girl isn’t obsessed with Butrym designs? Like a cute cardigan for instance?
An antique kitty cutlery holder — the cutest thing ever. Basically, anything antique is the answer for V-Day.
Saint Laurent Babylone Breteuil heels in burgundy.
Chanel’s new makeup collection devoted to the Rouge Noir shade — a lipstick or a blusher.
Subtle lace dress from Herskind.
A cardigan from Magda Butrym.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
xoxo
