Our Valentine’s Day
She hung up the phone smiling to herself.
“Ahhh, Priscilla is going to love this,” Abijola said out loud as she headed to the kitchen to make a cup of tea. She’d just finished speaking to a woman who helped her plan the most thoughtful bouquet. Nothing loud, nothing rushed. Just beautiful. Intentional. Exactly right.
Priscilla is her best friend. The kind you plan life with. The kind you call after long days. The kind you’ve been talking about Valentine’s Day with since 2024 because you live in different cities and finally, this is the year you’re doing it properly together.
They already have plans. Prosecco chilled. A fancy girlie dinner at The Ritz. No rushing. No apologies. Just time. The good kind.
But what Abijola hasn’t told Priscilla yet is that she’s also bought her a dress.
Brown (because that's the new red and black - hehehe), soft but bold. Structured and easy. The kind of dress that doesn’t try too hard but somehow says everything.
She’d gone back and forth about it, three options before landing on this one. Not because Priscilla is fussy, but because this season of her life matters. She’s back at the gym, back in therapy, back to choosing herself after a hard separation from her fiancé. Learning to put herself first again. Learning what love looks like when it’s steady, not loud.
And Abijola knows her. She knows this dress fits her personality. Strong, warm, quietly confident. The kind of woman who shows up for others even when she’s healing herself.
>> CHECK OUT THE DRESS
This is what love looks like to us. It’s not always roses and romance. It’s phone calls and planning. It’s flowers sent just because. It’s meet-ups that turn into holidays. It’s therapy sessions booked together, or sat through quietly side by side. It’s checking in. Holding space. Making time. It’s women choosing each other.
At Heritage Clothings, Valentine’s Day has never been about being chosen. It’s about choosing. Choosing your people. Choosing softness. Choosing yourself. Choosing to show up even when life feels messy, uncertain, or in-between.
We see the love gestures that don’t always get named.
The friendships that carry us.
The comfort we give and receive.
The way we dress for ourselves when we’re rebuilding, celebrating, or simply surviving.
So this Valentine’s Day, we’re celebrating that.
The girls’ trips.
The dinners.
The flowers.
The dresses bought with intention.
The love that looks like care, time, and presence.
This is our Valentine’s Day.
And we wouldn’t have it any other way.
