Happy Valentine’s Day, belles! We hope you have a wonderful day ahead planned, whether you’re enjoying it with your fiancé, your husband, your boyfriend, your best friends, or your family! This holiday is such a sweet reminder to make sure your loved ones know how much they mean to you, so even if you don’t have any plans, make today a little extra special by calling a long-distance friend, writing a letter to your grandma, or doing a random act of kindness. I daresay it’ll give you warm, fuzzy feelings that will last long after February 14 is over!
