Valentine's Day is right around the corner, and I am excited. Not for heart-shaped boxes of chocolate (I know too much about the unethical sourcing of cocoa to trust anything that isn't fair trade), not for an excuse to go out and buy new lingerie (beautiful silk is almost impossible to find, the best you can hope for is a polyester/nylon blend with a satin sheen and a high price tag), and not for flowers (no real reason here, I just don't like red roses).
While my list of ethical and personal dilemmas could make for a huge Debbie Downer of a Valentine's Day, vintage fashion comes through to rescue this day of love -- alongside the nice excuse to wear a hot pink dress, bright red lipstick, and purple pumps all at once!
