Valentine’s Day Dreaming

Photo: Matthew Sandager

Sure, Valentine’s Day is for expressing your love for your fellow humans (possibly in the form of under-$50 trinkets), but we’d like to use the season of romance to declare our undying passion for certain designer pieces. After all, while it’s nearly impossible to get tired of the Lady Dior bag, the stunning red patent-leather version will restore any spark that might have gone missing from the relationship. Scroll down to see shiny things, pink things, fuzzy things, and lots of candy hearts.
