In the spirit of love...

My favourite thing to do at this time of year is to pick Valentines Day cards. Obviously. Because it would be weird to do it at any other time of the year.
I'm a very pedantic card shopper, everything about the card has to be completely perfect, so much so, that I usually make my own. That said, the Valentines Day spread at Selfridges hits the spot EVERY year.

I was wandering through the other day, and spotted this Smythson Valentines card, which was just so lovely in the flesh.


Sorry about the quality of the image, but this is the best I could find; the text is Shakespeare's Sonnet 116.
It does come at quite a price though, I recall somewhere in the region of £10, which is slightly excessive for a greetings card, even when it is as luxurious as this one!
I think my boyfriend's reaction to the price tag has confirmed that I won't be getting this in the post on Monday! 


You can shop the Selfridges card range here. Share the love!
