Valentine's Day MOTD // eyeliner wings & pretty things

Happy Valentine’s Day to those who hate it and those who love it and those who love to hate it. Personally, I’m indifferent about the day but I do love the omnipresent reds, pinks and heart prints. Is anything cuter than red, pink and hearts? I also love a good excuse to play with makeup and draw a heart on my cheek a la Marina & the Diamonds.
