Hey everyone
I'm so excited to share with you how my valentine's day was. Now, I know valentine's is tricky and everyone has their own opinion on it and some advocate that there shouldn't be a day specific for it because love must be shown every day, yada yada. For me that's like saying mother's day shouldn't exist because you should cherish your mom every day. So my perspective on it is that sure, love is something you show every day, but it's also nice to have a day where you can sit down and celebrate it.
Me and my boyfriend discovered that if you want a nice restaurant for valentine's day, you need to book it waaaay in advance. We thought a week's notice was enough but apparently not. The two restaurants we wanted were both fully booked, so we settled for another one but left our names in the waiting list for the one we wanted. Turns out someone cancelled their reservation at the nice restaurant so we got a spot and I'm so glad we did because the food was amazing and the place was really nice.
After the food we went to the movies, we watched 50 Shades of Grey. A lot can be said about the movie, some people hated it, but if you consider what they had to work with (the dreadful writing of E. James) I'd say they did a pretty good job and I'll wait for the second installment of the series. Also, the soundtrack was amazing.
Moving on, I wore one of the outfits I showed you in my valentine's day outfit ideas post and I felt really good about myself in it. My sweet sweet boyfriend took inspiration from a wishlist post I wrote a while ago and bought me the pink sweater featured in it and I'm so happy. After the movie we went home, had some Baileys and the rest is history.
It was a really perfect evening and I'm so grateful to him for trying to make it all it was.
How was your valentine's day like?
