IP Insider
Flowers, jewelry, chocolates; the old reliable Valentine’s Day gift standbys. Although tried and true they may seem tired- but they don’t have to be if you put a VeryIP twist on them!
Flowers are a perfectly lovely way to celebrate your blooming romance but you don’t want to extend the metaphor when they start wilting. For an ever-lasting blossom, step into Swarovski and pick your favorite crystal flower from their glittering garden. There’ll be no question about whether you love them or love them not with a stunning blue crystal violet or a charming vase of dazzling red roses.
Sparkling jewelry may always be an elegant and expensive way to express your love, but what if the object of you affection doesn’t have an occasion to don a diamond? There’s a stylish alternative that’s functional and funky- a watch from Swatch! The Loving Twister watch from Swatch’s Valentine’s 09 Collection is covered with playful pink hearts and comes in special packaging. Their Sailing design is a fun yet sturdy model sure to keep you tied up with it’s illustrations of sailor’s knots across the band. With so many to choose from, there’s bound to be something for the someone in your life!
No one can refuse a box full of chocolates, even though the specter of your New Year’s resolution hasn’t quite faded from memory. How about sweets for your sweetheart that show you love them inside and out-strawberries dipped in Godiva chocolate? Studies have shown that dark chocolate is rich in anti-oxidants, making it a heart-healthy indulgence. The better your health the more time you can spend eating chocolate strawberries with your sweetie!
