“Love Letters”
Can anyone argue that a love letter is the most cherished gift a lover can give? This Valentine’s Day, Naja introduces its limited edition “Love Letters” panties.
Lace panties with individually customized love notes (that you, the lover, comes up with) printed inside. Each “note” is custom printed and must be 35 characters or less.  And the big plus? For those guys who don’t feel quite up to coming up with their own poetry, the folks at Naja will help come up with something she’ll love.

What could be more romantic than a secret message discreetly hidden inside her lingerie?  One written by you, of course. May be too late for this Valentine’s Day since they need a coupe of weeks notice, but you have to admit is a truly unique gift idea.

Limited Edition Personalized Love Letters Panty available in Navy or Jazzy: $100
Matching Love Letters Lace Bralette available in Navy or Jazzy: $42

FOR EVERYONE!
IN THE SPIRIT

 

Deleon Group1-V2 copy-1

 

DELEÓN Tequila
For Valentine’s Day this year, think outside the box (of chocolates). There are few times you can go wrong by giving the gift of a luxury spirit – a good tequila tends to be an underrated asset in anyone’s personal bar. And for a memorable evening for the more daring couple, sharing a bottle of high-end tequila trumps the typical champagne.

 

DELEÓN Tequila is establishing itself as the new standard of luxury in tequila, presented in a bold, bespoke-style bottle made from high quality fragrance-grade glass with fine-line detailing that accentuates the crowning, signature ornate metal closure. Preferably served neat in a rocks glass.

 

The complete DELEÓN Tequila portfolio delivers six distinctive variants – three ultra-premium and three luxury.  Leading the DELEÓN Tequila line-up is the new Platinum.  Un-aged and unrivaled in finish, DELEÓN Platinum Tequila ($60 MSRP per 750ml) is a provocative Blanco with a rich, complex agave honey that is slow-fermented and twice-distilled.

 

For the date with a high price tag, the exquisitely bold and refined Leóna ($850 USD) is selected from the DELEÓN private reserves, long-aged and rested in both American Oak and French Sauternes casks.
