Dear Readers,
Don't worry, this isn't a feeble attempt at gaining pity. Instead I am reaching out to all you unattached women out there, to show you how you can turn Valentine's Day into a day of self-love and self-indulgence. If you are in a relationship, then good on you girl. But if you connect on a spiritual level with protagonists like Bridget Jones and Carrie Bradshaw, then continue reading this post.
I am a total romantic. I love the over-the-top floral bouquets, the intimate dinners and the feeling of an entwined cuddle...but sometimes life doesn't work that way and you're sat at home with your Waitrose Wine and Dine for two, ironically for one. As I have always been a woman who will not wait for a person to make something happen for me, I sought to spend a little money on myself in the days leading up to Valentine's Day. You certainly do not need to splurge to really treat yourself, so find things that make you feel good.
Below are some of my 'Treat Yo' Self' picks:
