Valentine's Day Jams

I guess this isn't your standard list consistent of D'Angelo and Trey Songz and Mariah Carey... but, these are the songs right now that are making me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
yes i'm ashamed that Dave Matthews is on here twice. it may have some subconscious meaning, since I met my boyfriend in high school- when DMB was full force in my life..

Here's my playlist in text form, then in video of my favorite live versions.
1. Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
2. Prince- Purple Rain
3. Kings of Leon- Cold Desert
4. Led Zeppelin - Going to California
5. Procol Harum- Whiter Shade of Pale
6. Led Zeppelin- I Can't Quit You Babe
7. Dave Matthews + Tim Reynolds- Say Goodbye
8. Eric Clapton (Derek & The Dominos) - Bell Bottom Blues
9. Dave Matthews + Tim Reynolds- The Stone
10. Fleetwood Mac- Never Going Back Again

Valentine's Day

Now I know MOST of you can't afford a $2k+ dress for the big day.

I COULD but, ya know, I choose not to.

I'd love to be able to purchase this Valentino dress -

$2,105 at places where you buy Valentino.


 It's classy, trendy, flirty, girly, femmy, chicy, sexy, bubbly, ALL AT THE SAME TIME!! OMGEE!!

But lets face it. It's a pink fucking strapless dress. With a bow. $2k? Eat me.

So here are some dresses I've found that basically give you the same exact look.

$69.99 at Target.

$134 dress @ Bloomingdales
I don't like the flower on this, but I love the peplum waist. So it cancels each other out.


And for a little off the cut, but still in the same color scheme...
