Love is in the air and the pressure is on to pamper your precious! Here are some ideas from the heart and the luxury of being a "last minute lover" is available.


Dim the Lights

Why not create the ambience of their dreams. Candlelight evokes memories and is perfect to show them you care about the tiniest details.

Not only candles but fragrances make the perfect statement and diptyque has both! Pick up the Eau Rose limited edition set and it is wrapped, ready and sealed with a kiss!

The ultimate in personalization; give them the scent of their neighborhood in a bold and beautiful bottle that smells as divine as it looks. Wearable luxury!

Blooms for Your Beloved
Send a gift that hits home. Every time they pass or smell a beautiful bouquet, they think of their Valentine.

Each creation is spectacular and the Valentine's Day collection took my breath away.

Love Letters
Nothing is more romantic and meaningful than a handwritten card from the heart. The perfect card can often times show your feelings without saying a word. Here are my two tried and true; one for cards and one for stationary.

It's no secret that I adore sending elegant, event appropriate cards for every occasion! This is my favorite and I can also pick up beautiful gift wrap, ribbon and even stylish books and gifts.
