A real, bloodless heart for your Valentine!

bloodless_heart.jpg Valentine's Day is the perfect time to rip out your heart and gift it to your lady love. A love letter written in blood is a mighty turn-off, but what if it a real heart in the offing? And for a change you can do so quite literally, but the heart would not be yours but that of an innovative artist known as David Foox! In a very rare display of artistic finesse, David Foox has created a set of 8-limited edition back lit mounts of his own chest x-rays. What makes it so novel is that the x-ray has a anatomically appropriate heart painted with actual acrylic paints and bright colors. And with a price tag of $3000 a piece, it's for you to decide whether you want to gift someone else's heart, purchased from your hard-earned money to your sweetheart!

amosu-pink-valentines-02.jpg Guys please don’t fret and turn to agony-aunt columns to dig up suggestions for buying the perfect Valentine gift for your lady love. Allow me to help with a gift option that will certainly fuel up your love life. Amosu has rolled out the Pink Limited Editions for every lady who loves to celebrate this day by receiving the best gift.

But it’s the Pink Limited Editions cell phones dressed in color of love that will remind them that they are loved day in and day out. Opt for the bright pink Blackberry Bold but if your pocket permits you then grab the diamond-studded Blackberry Bold or iPhone in pink. Though there is no official detailed information, you need to go by my words and your eyes. All I am sure about is that the Pink Bold 9700 is tagged at £1000 ($1,600). While the other Bold comes for £6,000 ($9,300) and the Pink Iphone with diamonds flaunts a price tag of £14,000 ($21,800).
