Styleboard for February 09

Inspiration for February has to be filled with roses, hearts and red – all reflecting the passion and romance of Valentine’s Day. We have included some Asian hints, since there are still a few sky lanterns lingering on the horizon from Chinese New Year. Touches of gold add glamour to red weddings, and give a feeling of warmth to a wedding that might still be feeling the chill of winter in many parts of Europe.
