Valentine Nightmare: Tulle Explosion

Valentine's Day appears in my nightmares (yes, nightmares) full of tulle and organza: tulle-wrapped teady bears, chocolate, candy, and God forbid there's a V Day party: tulle is in every corner, every seat, every damn party favor.

So this year, I've decided to confront my tulle and organza fear head on, hoping to convert my prejudice into tolerance:

If I could ever handle more than a 2" heel and had the money, I would so buy these Valentino shoes.

Light as air, huge (in a non threatening way for me), and bright, these Nakita Queen Bitch earrings from Manic Trout are fun!

A (faux) pearl necklace with chiffon rosettes make an elegant statement at any party -even on Valentine's Day.

I dare you tell me where the tulle is in this Alice + Olivia Cascade Cardigan, but it's there.

Oh I think 2010 might be the year when I conquer one of my silly fears. One of my resolutions was to be more open-minded, so, there.
