He loves me, he loves me not… Mimco ALWAYS loves you! They are offering $50 off for every purchase over $200. This offer is valid from Thursday 28th January until Sunday 21st February. Mimco’s Valentine’s Day offer cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer and excludes limited edition items, sale items, gift vouchers, lay-bys and is not valid for department stores.

Great if you need ideas for what hints to leave with that special someone this Valentine’s Day.

Cacao

Valentine’s Day virtually equates to an excuse for eating extravagant chocolates for many of you chocoholics out there so Cacao have put together the most darling little boxes. For the romantic sweet tooths reading we have Cacao classic wooden boxes enclosing two blush pink Strawberry and Eau de Rose Macaroons, a loveheart-shaped, Passionfruit and White Peach chocolate and a 70% Dark Choc and Eau de Rose chocolate called Je t’aime. Divine! They do say the way to a man’s heart is through his belly…but we think that can apply to just about everyone in this case.

Georg Jensen

Danish designer Helle Damkjær has reinvented the traditional heart in silver for Valentine’s Day. The ” Love at 360 degrees” pendant is an abstract take on love in a 3-d form intended to represent everlasting love. The artist says of the piece, “my heart pendant symbolises inner beauty and love – all the way round. That is why I made a 360 degrees heart. It also looks a bit like a pendulum – which is a very hypnotic subject. And that is what love feels like,
isn’t it – it is a hypnotic state”. The pendant is priced at $340 for the small version and $505 for the larger version.

Secrets Shhh

Secrets Shhh is all about “how it makes you feel” throughout the year and during February the emotive sentiment holds even more weight. For Valentine’s Day they would recommend sticking with the classics with a sparkling solitaire pendant on 14 carat white gold chain. What better piece to symbolise one true love? The perfect diamond simulant pendant is priced at $160 and the coordinating chain is $125.

Have a Happy Valentine’s Day Melbourne!

So the colour experts at Pantone have declared 2010 to be the year that Turquoise will reign! The colour is where blue meets green, reflected in the ocean and tropical skies and naturally in the precious stone of the same name. The colour is said to be fresh while also being calming. One of the easiest ways to quickly update your wardrobe is to inject a dash of the hue of the moment so we’ve scoured the stores to select a few turquoise pieces.
