All about LOVE! (0) | February 10th, 2008 |
It has been a wonderful month off from the store, celebrating Christmas, the New Year then now, Chinese New Year. From the turkeys to the presents. To the lovely homemade repertoire from aunts and grandmas alike, to the mouthwatering baked goods (personal favourite: Kuih Karpet aka Love Letters) that seems to be a regular fixture in every household, it has truly been a wonderful occasion for all!
Not forgetting the many “Ang Pows” (red packets) collected and winnings from the gambling table for the lucky few, this Chinese New Year certainly makes for a great transition to one of my all time favourites: Valentine’s Day!
Last year, I showed some Crashing potential. This year, The Remix:
I have been scouring both stores for some Valentine’s Day gift ideas. Here’s what I found at CzipLee:
1. Love-stories:
From the flush of first love in Turgenev’s First Love, part of the highly regarded ‘Great Loves’ series from Penguin, to those Vintage Classics with books that change the world, with books from the “it’s a girl thing” people at LBD and to the evergreen and well loved Jane Austen.
Fall in love with a book this Valentine’s…=)
2. Love-inks:
A Pilot Ageless futuristic pen in RED of course:
Last year’s top selling Valentine’s Day product. More stocks are now available:
If you do not know what a Moleskine RED diary yet, you don’t know what you are missing out! =) CzipLee has LIMITED STOCKS of the Moleskine Twin Set – Limited Edition – the only RED range left. Go on spoil yourself or your object of affection this Valentine’s:
Or if not, get the RED Moleskine Van Gogh Museum series (as featured in Zero Degrees Feb issue) A vibrant hard cover notebook lined with shantung silk, but still boasting the time-tested durability that ensures musings are kept safe from the elements.
4. Love-journeys
