We love giving (and receiving) art for Valentine’s Day and anniversary gifts and wedding gifts (well, and any occasion really), so when we spotted these incredibly sweet heart-themed pieces by UK-based Sarah & Bendrix, we nearly melted.

Choose from feathery white or bolder red pieces – or even bookish and blue options. Either way, the little reminder that love is all you need will be a pick-me-up every time you see it.

Where to fall in love?

What does love make you think of? For me, Breakfast at Tiffany’s always pops to mind. I love Audrey Hepburn, I love the film and I double love that my Valentine and I fell in love with this film while watching it in our very early days of courtship. Inspired by that, and by this fantastic Living In column by Amy Merrick on Design*Sponge, I thought I’d put together a mini Breakfast at Tiffany’s roundup.

[ clockwise from top, l-r: Holly Golightly Dress - the perfect LBD custom-made for you; Holly Golightly Sleep Mask -- the chicest way to shut out the world; Holly Golightly Blue Tassel Earplugs -- to keep the noise out, daaahling; Bath Tub Couch -- because dreams can come true, in 4-6 weeks ]

Thinking of something someone loves, whether a movie, book, country or hobby is always a great hopping off point for gift giving. What Breakfast at Tiffany’s fan wouldn’t love items inspired by the movie?

[ Vintage Olivetti Valentine Typewriter -- because, like Fred, er...Paul, you too are a writer and would be inspired by a gorgeous vintage typewriter; Multi-Strand Bow Necklace -- a modern update on the classic multi-strand pearls; Audrey Hepburn Collection (Breakfast at Tiffany's / Roman Holiday / Sabrina) -- the movie, of course, plus a few more romantic classics for your viewing pleasure; Tiffany Earrings -- for obvious reasons; Breakfast at Tiffany's (Essential Penguin) -- the book that started it all; Washburn Banjo, 5 String -- for when you're inspired to strum Moon River; Pink Studio Gypsy Ballet Flats -- because Holly and Audrey made ballet flats chic; Breakfast at Tiffany's Paintings -- the sweetest art to commemorate your BaT love ]

Not only is a themed gift like this great to get, but it’s so much fun to give. For a wedding gift, we once had a blast finding Roman delights for friends who were spending their honeymoon in Rome (think Roman Holiday, books on Rome, Italian wine,  all wrapped in paper with a vintage world map and topped off with a card with a Vespa on the front).

Every couple seems to have a song. If you and your guy have a movie, get inspired by all of the great Living In posts here. Or maybe you share a love of Paris? Or of camping. Maybe he adores a certain book. Hunt down a first edition. Give a writer a fabulous pen and journal, or a coveted vintage typewriter. Maybe photography’s his passion? A vintage or silly, fun camera would be cute. Just showing the one you love (or kinda like a lot) that you know them, will melt his/her heart.

What’s your movie?

We first discovered British designer Donna Wilson via the fabulous San Francisco boutique, Eden and Eden, which carries quirky objects of design by independent designers from the U.K. and beyond. It was there we first fell for the Blah Blah Blah pillow, which reminds us so much of Seinfeld (yadda, yadda, yadda).

So we were thrilled to see the same print available in blanket form, straight from the designer herself.

Why a Blah Blah Blah blanket? For those times your Snuggie just won’t do. And people just won’t leave you alone. Honestly. And you just need to curl up on the couch with a box of chocolates and the remote (or, you know, a good book).

Plus, it’s a way more elegant (and lazier) way of saying Talk to the hand.

We think it makes an excellent Valentine’s Day gift too (yup, a new holiday is already around the corner, blah, blah, blah).

Where to nab yours in pale pink, blue and ebony, or white and ebony (or a cute mini blanket in blue or white and ebony)?

The next time you have friends over for a Mad Men pizza and cocktail party (which should be every Sunday in our opinion), surprise them with these hysterical Dress for Dinner napkins.
Even if everyone’s in their trusty Sunday uniform (t-shirts and jeans), they’ll look as dapper as Mr. Draper himself once they put their ties…er, napkins on.
An excellent hostess gift or housewarming gift for your best bachelor friend who just moved into his new place, we think these would also be adorable at a little kid’s birthday party.

Do love jewelry as much as we do, but aren’t exactly a fan of in-your-face glamazon bling?
Then you’ll likely love Melissa Joy Manning’s treasures as much as we do.
The California designer seductively melds the modern with the traditional, the rough with the pretty, the unexpected with the organic.
And if you happen to be a bride-to-be and are dreaming of a truly one-of-a-kind engagement ring, prepare to swoon (and remember, as Carrie Bradshaw proved in SATC, you can totally marry yourself to justify your acquisition).
While there are some beautiful necklaces and bracelets and we already have the engagement ring of our dreams, we’re fawning like Bambi over the unusually spectacular stud earrings and standout cocktail rings.
Are you up for some new treasures?
Then, take a peek!
