We are going from a yellow and lilac party from this morning to a yellow and grey color palette with this baby shower that was styled by Flavia of Fete & Fete.

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone. My day began with making heart shaped pancakes and stuffing Valentine’s Day goody bags for my boys. It will end with heart shaped cookies and milk. As I scarf down the leftover chocolate {a lot has already… been consumed}, I wanted to share a little love with you. This day represents showing love and appreciation. So to you all…Happy Valentine’s Day.

Valentine’s Day is approaching us quickly and we are loving this sweet Valentine’s Day party that was styled by Sofia from BistrotChic in Portugal for her daughter and friends. The style of this party was a throw back to the original spirit of Valentine – l’amour courtois – a European expression of pure love and admiration that flourished in medieval times.
