Valentine’s Day Traditions

Whether Valentine’s Day falls on a school day or the weekend, a great (and delicious!) way to start the day with your smallest Valentines is with a special breakfast Kids feel extra special when they are being served something just for them. Decorate the kitchen table the night before (after they go to bed) with decorative plates, napkins, cups and decorations, and then plan a menu that everyone will love. You can dye the waffle batter pink with food coloring or berry juice and top them with whipped cream and strawberries — or put a Valentine twist on whatever your family’s favorite breakfast may be. Bows, ruffles and hearts galore

OMG, this is one of the closest Valentine’s Days and Mardi Gras in quite a while.  Valentine’s Day is February 14, and Mardi Gras is only two days behind on February 16. 

Presumably, most parties will be the previous weekend, and therefore a dilemma.  Which one to go to, or worse, what if there is a combination party?

When making a decision to create a gift for a boyfriend – or anyone for that matter – it is important to have all the necessary materials on hand. Planning plays a major role, where you have to take time out from your schedule and gather the raw materials, before you then sit down to begin the process. While this is a fantastically cool idea, the options can be pretty limited unless you follow detailed instructions right down to a tee. Don’t listen to what critical people say, because you know better than anyone else, what you’re doing.

A Little Valentines Day History

Originally, the feast day of St. Valentine honored two third century martyrs by the name of Valentine who were elevated to sainthood in the early middle ages. Dismayed defenders of the faith felt that the penny post valentine cheapened affection, and joked that many a postal carrier was crushed under his bag of cheaply-produced letters strewn with cooing birds and hearts.

To manage the paradox that a generic, mass-produced valentine was being asked to convey a heartfelt, singular emotion, a whole new business emerged of “valentine writer books.” These books provided verses that could be copied into a valentine and presented as the sender’s own words and unique creation.

So, all you cranks and cynics take heart: Valentine’s Day had a decidedly unromantic genesis, and even after the holiday got alloyed to romantic love, it had its own subversive, cynical undertow right from the start, whether it be the riots and effigies of failed love, the charivari mockery valentines, or the valentine writer’s plagiary book to achieve “authentic” expression.

In addition to regular and plus size Valentines Day costumes, you will find that the costume companies also have Valentine’s Day decorations for your home, car, dorm room, office and even a car. It’s quite romantic to go out to your car and see a Valentine’s Day decoration on the windshield (just be sure to sign it so that she/he knows that it’s from you.).

Valentine’s Day Dresses

There are other dresses that you can wear on Valentines Day and still look glamorous. Pants are not effective for Valentines Day. It is advisable that you go for dresses or skirts as they appear fashionable to wear on this day. However, you should be slow on colors and prints since they suit differently to different body types. Red is the color of love but this does not necessarily mean that you have to wear a red Valentines Day dress. Red color comes with many shades and it would be important that you choose a shade that will compliment your skin tone.

Sure I could have gone to Victoria’s Secret or some other lingeree store and gotten a cute babydoll or other item, but this is so unique and so fun. With a form fitting bodice with hearts and ruffles and a full gown that cuts away to a ruffled miniskirt, you have every right to order off with their heads. I have tried it on and it is super flattering and sexy. The full skirt flowed behind me as I walked down the stairs and truly made me feel like a queen. The crown is a little cheezy, but the rest of the outfit is high quality and suprisingly comfortable.

If you’re flying solo this year but still want to go for a Valentine’s Day theme, test your wings as Cupid. Nothing says Valentine’s Day like the cute, little cherub who shoots unsuspecting people with his magic love arrow. A Cupid costume is all about accents. You can start with a sexy corset in almost any color. Then, pick up a pair of wings, and bow and arrow set to make the costume really look authentic. Another Valentine’s Day costume that is sure to turn heads is a Teddy Bear.

St. Valentine’s and Costumes

Wearing costumes is a romantic way to express your affection for your significant other on Valentines Day. Before his death sentence was carried out, Valentine wrote a farewell message to his beloved, which he concluded with the inscription, “from your Valentine.” Years later by Church decree, Valentine was named the Patron Saint of Love.

Retailers around the world push traditional gifts such as heart shaped chocolates, cards, flowers and jewelry, but what women really want often times gets blurred out from all the marketing that goes on before Valentines Day.

Valentines Day Costumes

A ruby goddess, a red hot starlette and a queen of hearts are Valentine’s costumes that never fail to please. In addition, you can add red stilettos, and other romantic accessories to your Valentine’s Day costume Using costumes as part of an intimate evening with your lover is a fun and adventurous way to keep your relationship fresh and inviting.

Hearts, candies, and flowers are symbols of Valentine’s Day as you can see in the designs of traditional greeting cards and Valentine’s e-cards sent on February 14. They are also an essential part of the decorations for your party.

Lingerie is common attire that many sexy women wear during Valentine’s Day, but as much as it does the job of showing off your sensuous curves and turning on your partner, it may lack in fulfilling those sexy fantasies that make the experience more exciting and fun!

Of course, talking to most males they would tell you that a  woman dressed up as a sexy Playboy Bunny, Nurse, or French Maid, their level of fantasy images and sexual excitement will increase tremendously.

Couples can wear their favorite fantasy costume, and especially women that want to go all out to please their sexy partner, you can find naughty attire such as sexy dresses, fantasy wigs, sexy boots, gloves, and the men’s ultimate favorite, sexy hosiery.

Add the color dye but not too much because you want it to be clear enough to see the embeds. The essential oils you use cannot be the kind that is bought from a cosmetic store, but from a place where it is deemed safe for use in candle-making. Add about two tablespoons of the essential oil to the gel mix. To achieve a clear appearance that is free from bubbles, take the pot off the stove and set it in the oven at 150°F for about a minute. The zinc wick should ideally be at least an inch and half above the gel layer.
