Valentines Day


Hey guys!

Thanks to old Saint Valentine, February is celebrated as a month of love in many countries, and although the history of St Valentine isn't known absolutely, Valentines day is still one of the cutest holidays.

Whilst February 14th is a day that everyone feels like they should show how much they love someone, you shouldn't confine it to one day. If you love someone, you should show it all year round!

But I still love a good excuse to celebrate anything, and I love all things to do with love, so of course Valentines is high on my list of favourites!


Plus it gives more excuses for cards with puns on, and they really are the best type

There's way too much importance put on having the perfect valentines, when all you need to do is spend it with the person, or people, that you love! :)

There's so many different things you can do, depending on how you want to spend your day/night! :)

One of my favourite ways to spend a date night is to make a pillow/blanket fort (because i'm an adult) or push two sofas together and make a little blanket den in there, so cosy. Then get out some chocolates, some drinks, and put a cute romcom on.


Going out for dinner is always a good option, but it's also just as much fun to make your favourite dinner at home together :) You could always mix the two together and make dinner at home then just get dressed up to go out for dessert. I actually really want to do that now.

Whatever you do, just make sure it's something you enjoy, and with someone that makes you happy! 

I've had quite different experiences in the past, cosy nights in, going out for dinner, a trip to paris, and being asked to move out. It's always an eventful weekend, and always different from the last! 

What are you doing this valentines? Date night, or a night with friends? 

Whatever you do, I hope it's exceptionally cheesy!

  1. We totally ignore Valentines I will be honest (but then again we're the kinda couple who's wedding anniversary did actually pass us by one year! lol). We typically have a date night every Friday so I think we're just getting a pizza and watching anime haha.

  4. A date night every friday is such a cute idea! Pizza and anime is a good way to spend a night! If you have a date night like that each week then valentines should be no different to any weekend for you guys, but then that's what makes the idea so cute, that you make sure to put in the effort to have a dedicated date night each week! I love it! xx
