VALENTINE FEATURE DAY 10 - Pink-tastic Love

Besides RED, Valentine's Day also looks great in PINK! Today's feature is all about PINK. Pink has always been one of my favorite colors because it look cute and sweet, while red is hot and sexy. I like to be both ^_^ but at different times, still not sure what I should be on Valentine's Day though lol ok let's get started....

Our first Pink-tastic item is this gorgeous bracelet pictured above. Isn't it fabulous! I just love looking at it and I think the "always" charm is so sweet, plus it says "forever" on the other side! This is a great Valentine's gift to any woman. The bracelet is made from lampwork glass beads and Bali sterling silver beads. You can find this lovely bracelet at Seashells72's shop for $99.00. (*Discount & Special Available! See end of post.)

Our next Pink-tastic item is this Love Me Tender Valentine Necklace. This necklace is very versatile. It's simple enough to wear with jeans, but can also look great with a pretty dress. So if you are dressing up or down this Valentine's Day, this necklace will still look great on you. You can purchase this necklace for $24.00 at JacarandaDesigns. (*Discount & Special Available! See end of post.)

Below is another unique and beautiful necklace. Found at MoonSpiritJewelry's shop for only $39.99. This necklace is made with a sterling silver chain and Swarovski crystals. It's just a hint of pink to add a hint of pink to your outfit. This necklace is great for a person who loves Pink, but only want a bit of Pink to their outfit, for instance if you're wearing a black dress. The sterling silver look great with a black dress and the pink highlights your neck. (*Discount & Special Available! See end of post.)

Our last Pink-tastic item today is something to cover your hands when it's chilly outside and still make you look stylish! This felted fingerless gloves is a great gift to young adults to show their Valentine spirit. I love fingerless gloves because they keep your hands warm while typing, knitting, crocheting, retro fashion, playing a musical instrument, writing, journaling, skiing, hiking...or if you're doing anything! You can find this stylish Pink-tastic glove for $18.00 at Cofygirl's etsy shop.
