I’m not quite sure how this vest/tank-top really tones? If it does in fact tone then there really is no excuse for not having a six-pack, right?

This multi-purpose hat…would you really walk around with one of these on your head?

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
While I think Valentine’s Day is wonderful holiday to celebrate love between friends, couples, family, and children, I’m also one of those people who thinks that it should be celebrated beyond February 14th. Perhaps this is because I used to work at my mom’s flower shop every February 14th and I really just wanted to tell everyone who came through that everyday is a good day to buy someone flowers – why limit one’s generosity to red roses on one cold day in February?
Anyway – you may already know that in addition to flowers I am very keen on stationery. Giving a card is one of the easiest things one can do to show any kind of emotion or good will. Here’s a round up of some great cards for this lovely occasion.
Valentine card, $5, Paper Society & Co.
Valentine card, $4, Julie Ann Art
Valentine card, $5, Red Bird Ink
Valentine letterpress gift card, $4.95 for 10, Paper Source
Valentine card, $3, Quiet Tiger
Judging by the shoe cloests of the White Cabana team, you’d think having a healthy collection would be a job requirement. But no, this is not the case. I wonder if my contributors would be appreciative if they found a shoehorn in their mailboxes. It would be amusing, don’t you think? To wrap up a shoe horn and put it in the mail*?
Look at how the prices vary of these shoehorns:
shoehorn, $5.95, Muji
pip bird shoehorn, £9.95, Koziol
Voyage shoehorn, €64, Georg Jensen
sterling silver shoehorn, $493, Annabel Chaffer
Elsa Peretti Padova shoehorn, $495, Tiffany & Co.
What do you think of those last two shoehorns? Almost $500 for a shoehorn? Would you buy one?
Happy Friday everyone! Have a wonderful weekend!
*I once mailed Corie a hula hoop from Kingston, Ontario to Surfer’s Paradise, Australia. That was fun! The postie looked at me like I was crazy.
