Valentine’s Day is around the corner and this celebration of love is a day that divides us all. For some, it is a day of hope, that ignites a burst of excitement that expressions of love will be sent in their direction…. for others it’s just plain, outright… disappointing.

But Valentine’s Day isn’t just for the love up couples of the world….  Here  is our guide for ensuring your Valentine’s Day is a special one no matter what stage of life you are in:

Throw a house party-   If you are single and ready to mingle- why not throw a Valentine’s Day party and invite friends over for a great night in.

Have some fun decorating your home with oversized hearts, red and pink themed decor and mood lighting to match.

Hinting your way to the gift you really want-  If you still feel it challenges your masculinity having teddy bears and flowers delivered to your office- now’s the time let her know.

And if you have your eye out on a piece of jewellery you can always hint by sharing the item to your Facebook from Lasoo. A simple “wow… I really love this!” on a Facebook post will  ensure he gets the hint… or one of your Facebook friends will certainly let him know!

Spend some quality time- Don’t want to pay higher prices on Valentine’s Day but still want to enjoy a romantic dinner? Grab an iPod dock and put on your favourite tunes, and use the money you would have spent going out on a nice bottle of your favourite bubbly or wine.

Do you love or loathe Valentine’s Day? What are your plans?
