Red Hot Valentine..... Gift Ideas

   Some men dread this day because they believe  it is a day meant for only one thing----to drain their pockets while most women (moi included ** bats eyelids** what, I am only being honest here) believe it is a day they ought to be spoilt. The funny thing is that women also spoil their men on that day, so it is a win, win situation. Do not mind me, I have to admit men are usually very caring on this day.
            No matter the fence you are sitting on concerning who spends more, one thing for sure is that gifts are going to be exchanged on that day.
      Here are some lovely gift ideas for that special someone in your life.




Burlesque Inspired Lingerie
Lingerie
      Which woman does not feel sexy in beautiful lingerie?.Surprise her with a sexy lace number. Add a little bit of kinkiness by buying costume lingerie. A burlesque inspired lingerie is also fun and sexy. There are a wide range of characters to choose from. You can either be a school girl, a sexy nurse, wonder woman or any character you have ever fantasized her dressed as.
This gift is sure going to have an effect on both you and your woman. Word of caution though, no one has to know except both of you*wink*wink**.


Bag
Make her the envy of her friends when she struts out with this lovely birkin Hermes bag or  this beautiful Ankara piece from Coco Ankara.




Chocolate
Spoil her silly and satisfy her sweet tooth with a box of chocolates. She is going to have a swell time savouring every moment of it’s luxurious goodness. An added bonus is that it is an aphrodisiac.

No need for alarm .Create your own candle light dinner at home .Create a beautiful and romantic atmosphere (Candles, his favourite food ,soft music playing in the background, a sexy you) in your home (without the kids, just the two of you).Take your time to make sure everything is extra special.
Do either of these and see what happens afterwards.

Romantic getaway
Have you guys always wanted to get away, just the two of you? Then a romantic getaway to any destination of your choice is perfect for this season.
            You will have to plan your time around that day to ensure that you are both free on that day.

Destinations Of Choice
Obubu Cattle Ranch…….. Calabar , Nigeria
Sun City…………………..South Africa
      Jump start the morning by calling into a radio station to request  your loved one’s favourite love song.
Relieve your high school days. Send romantic text messages, write poems and write love letters (my favourite).This is going to tickle his or her fancy and give him or her something to keep and treasure .Nothing shows or says how much you love that person like words
Please while you do these things, do not forget that widow, orphan, homeless person---- that person in need. Put a smile on their faces. Show them how special they are. Give them a gift this valentine and experience the joy that goes with selfless love and giving.

I have so many gifts I would love to be spoilt with on that day. Chocolates)my favorite), a dress by Kosibah (my fantasy), Lingerie(do not ask me why, looool!!!) and some other lovely things. But the most important thing is that I want to receive and put a smile on someone’s face by showing how special they truly are.
