Soon...

Only 3 days left until Valentine's Day, or another occasion to celebrate together with your loved one, or that special someone in your life. Although some time ago I was more inclined to refuse these "made up" holidays, and to promote as much as possible local traditions, over the time I came to the conclusion that any real or made up reason, any initiative that changes daily routine and makes you try something rather new, is the purest form of creating small joyful moments.

These are the moments we make ourselves ready for, with small and well thought gestures, taking out of the closets our best or favorite dresses, skirts, blouses, shoes or ankle boots, we match our jewelry, and, by looking in the mirror, we bring final touches to that feminine image we aspire to.

Anticipation only increases the range of emotions, and we wish that our image from that day or evening will forever be encrusted in the mind of our loved one, while hearing the words: My dear, you are just radiant, and absolutely gorgeous! :) 

In the end, these droplets of joy are the ones that bring in the most sunshine during grey days, and warm up our hearts.
