Natalie Schack,

“Your love is as as sweet as a luscious bowl of tan tan ramen—er, as joyful as a Chrissy Teigen tweet … umm, as beautiful as a new Target collab collection?”

Things get a little weird when we try spouting sweet nothings, which is why we rely on our great shopping strengths to say it the write way on Valentine’s Day. Take a gander at our V-Day greeting card picks for some sweet to silly ways to tell your numbah one squeeze that they’re your heart’s MVP. Poetic, right?
