Love Notes

Write little love letters to each other all weekend, don’t forget that Valentine’s Day gives you a free pass to be as cheesy as possible. Great way to reaffirm your love for your partner.

Kikki-k has a letter set that comes with a case keeping everything handy.

 

Sexy lingerie

You may have been with your significant other for a while and there’s a certain level of comfort but steam it up this weekend by ditching the trackies this weekend and opting to go for something a lot sexier.

Check out the Stone collection from Agent Provocateur, in their words it’s “Hard-edged modern romance meets bold thrills in stand-out Stone. Sensuous black silk satin overlaid with decadent, gothic stretch French lace forms a strong, singularly re-imagined silhouette, creating a fabulous frisson both day and night.”

 

Pamper Pack

These getaways give you a chance to relax and have some quality downtime with your lover, and what better way to do that than by bringing a pamper pack. Bring your partner and The Body Shop’s Smoky Poppy Deluxe Gift Set into the bath and shower with you.

 

Chocolates

No Valentine’s Day is complete without chocolates to share with you and your partner, it’s great for relaxing and to get the blood sugar back up after a particularly intense romantic romp. Pick up Max Brenner’s Love Story Praline Box, filled with 18 of Max’s signature Pralines.

 

Eye Mask

These ones come in handy as it may be daytime before your partner allows you to sleep, if you’re lucky. It can also double as a blindfold for other activities. Peter Alexander offers this eye mask for less than 10 dollars.

 

Where to put everything?
