A Guide to Valentine’s Day Dating
Category: How To
Not knowing the type of your Valentine’s Day Date can turn your evening into a disaster: you might end up giving a Louis Vuitton purse to Miss Adorkable and a pair of handcuffs to the Uptown Girl. This Guide examines 7 Valentine types, how to win them over & what to expect from them.
Stupid Cupid! – by ♥✿PaintHead on Polyvore.com
SWEET LOLITA
Although Sweet Lolita is in her 20s, she adores everything pink & colorful, and often crafts her own outfits.
Melt her heart with: a giant heart-shaped lollipop, a plushie, and the Fruits Book for inspiration.
What you’ll get: the most elaborate, hand-crafted Valentine card you’ve ever seen & sweet kisses on the cheek.

THE SEX KITTEN
Sex Kitten is a straight A college student with a dark secret: she works as a Dominatrix by night. Her toy box is chock-full of black latex lingerie, patent stilettos and masks.
Melt her heart with: latex ligerie from Hedons Fair; Revenge by Ellen von Unworthbook.
What you’ll get: things we can’t even tell you about till you turn 18, a leather thong (for you) and a good spanking.

UPTOWN GIRL
Uptown Girl is sophisticated and worldly. Her daddy is a diplomat and her mother the head of a charity.
Melt her heart with: simple, but quality gifts or gifts that come from the heart. A tasteful floral arrangement, non-flashy gold bracelet, an I-Love-You card, & a weekend get-away.
What you’ll get: No drama, just plenty of sweet lovin’ and a vacation to an exclusive locale courtesy of her dad.

MISS ADORKABLE
Look past the books, the suspenders and the glasses, and you’ll see the real Miss Adorkable: a hopeless romantic who is smart and fun, just a little shy around guys.
Melt her heart with: Magic the Gathering cards, gadgets from ThinkGeek & a pocket flashlight because hers always breaks.
What you’ll get: tons of fun playing Dungeons & Dragons; loyalty: brainy girls take relationships very seriously and won’t cheat.
Happy Valentines ♥ – by JO on Polyvore.com
THE DIVA
Formerly a small-town girl who came to the city to be an actress/singer/model or all 3 at once, the Diva may not have had her big break yet, but is all ready for star-treatment. Some may think she is high-maintenance, but she says it’s part of the package.
Melt her heart with: perfumes, Agent Provocateur lingerie and by putting her in your spotlight.
What you’ll get: passion, tantrums, sequined underwear in bed and bragging rights that you ‘knew her back then’ if she gets famous!
My True Love is ART! – by ♥✿PaintHead on Polyvore.com
THE FASHIONISTA
Jimmy Choos, Manolos & Prada – those are The Fashionista’s altar and Bible. Your Fashionista is easily excitable by purses and shoes but cools down faster than you can say ‘winter couture’.
Melt her heart with: a gift certificate to Nordstrom, One Fifth Avenue by Candace Bushnell book.
What you’ll get: a very stylish girlfriend and a very thin wallet.
Happy Valentines Day – by Maja Konestabo on Polyvore.com
THE PRINCESS
The princess is a little spoiled, but has a heart of gold. She loves jewelry & foot massages, and expects to be treated like the treasure that she is.
Melt her heart with: the music edition of Romeo & Juliet, a hand-written love note, a promise ring, and a canary in a golden cage.
What you’ll get: romantic evenings over candle light & a whole lot of canary poop – you didn’t actually expect her to clean it up on her own!?
Deerlings: of course, there are many more types. So which one are you?

nice one! i guess im caught between the sweet lolita and the princess type…would that make me a “sweet princess”? :P
a canary in a golden cage or a pair of pink satin pumps would be perfect!
but if he’s strapped for cash a royal treatment massage and a romantic homemade dinner is just as perfect for me!!!

I must be a Miss Adorkable! I even have that skirt with the heart buttons, only in blue :)

I’m not really sure what type I am. A mix I guess. Today my boyfriend gave me red roses, a very sweet card, he made me yummy pancakes and he’s taking me out to dinner and then to the theatre to see Phantom of the Opera! It’s a perfect Valentine’s Day for me! :D :D

I am a mix of The Sweet Lolita, The Fashionista, and The Princess… with a tiny bit of The Sex Kitten thrown in there secretly, I think. ;)
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 1:15 pm
I am a Lolita. In fact, I need to get to work on that homemade Valentine, STAT!
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 1:29 pm
Oh I’m totally Miss Adorkable. My Valentine and I have a belated date including dinner, video games, and the Star Wars trilogy.
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 1:30 pm
Miss Adorkable!! Although, I must say I have aspects of the others, too.. =] You could melt my heart with a funky accessory or a pretty perfume. What you’ll get is complete and utter adoration, a homemade dinner, and maybe a tantrum or two =P

February 14th, 2009 at 2:11 pm
Oh dear, guess I’m a Sex Kitten! :-*
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 2:15 pm
I’m a mix between the Uptown Girl, the Princess, the Diva and Miss Adorkable (is that possible? XD). But probably the Uptown Girl most of all.

Sweet Lolita + Sex Kitten
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 2:48 pm
I’m a little bit of everything, I guess! :)

February 14th, 2009 at 4:38 pm

I’m a combo of sex kitten and princess :)
My Valentine’s Day has been a little rough around the edges today, so I bought myself some Limecrime eyeshadow as a present to myself :)

A strange mix of the Sex Kitten and Miss Adorkable – just think of Pac-Man lingerie ;)
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 5:15 pm
I would saaay, Miss Adorkable, definately.
maybe…Miss Adorkable, trying to be Uptown Girl. with a tiny bit of Sex Kitten somewhere deep down, secretly hiding.
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 6:19 pm
Definitely a mix of Uptown Girl & Miss Adorkable. ;x
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 6:33 pm
I’m definetely a “sweet lolita” type!))I adore Fruits books and I like doing hand-crafted cards! When I was in school I was doing all Valentine cards by myself.
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 6:57 pm
I’m a mix between lolita, miss adorkable and the princess.
Love the name Miss Adorkable btw! :D
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 9:19 pm
Hmm….what happened to the rock n roll girls? I’m definitely none of the above!
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 9:28 pm
lol; I’m not a straight A student sadly… but I guess being a scientist chick will do. I’d say somewhere along the lines of Sex Kitten + Diva + Punk girl. :P
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 10:10 pm
I’m a cross between a Miss Adorkable and a Princess. I’m very studious, and I LOOOOVE thinkgeek! At the same time, I’m kind of a spoiled brat ;)
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 10:30 pm
I’d have to say I am probably a mix of every one of these! Can’t really pin down just one. Happy Valentine’s Day Deere! <3
[Reply]
February 14th, 2009 at 11:37 pm
Hmm I think I’m a sweet lolita with slight undertones of Diva ^-^

I think I’m a mix between a sweet lolita, miss adorkable, the princess, uptown girl and the fashionista ><
[Reply]
February 15th, 2009 at 1:17 am
I’m probably a diva and a sex kitten, which doesn’t flatter me too much!
[Reply]
February 15th, 2009 at 1:56 am
it’s a toss up between the Updown girl and the Fashionista
[Reply]
February 15th, 2009 at 5:44 am
The strangest mix of Miss Adorkable and Fashionista. I love all things fashion and make up…but I have a soft spot for nerdy things like World of Warcraft and Star Wars. Perhaps some Diva thrown in there, since I dream of acting!
[Reply]
February 15th, 2009 at 11:53 am
Kiley, you and me both! :D I’m a pretty hardcore gamer and I always look good doing it! :D
I don’t think I could ever ask my boyfriend to fund my wardrobe, though – that’s something I like doing myself. :) So in terms of Valentine’s Day gifts, I’m Miss Adorkable all the way.

None of the above, I’m an Anime Geek XD give me a ShonenJump, ShojoBeat, new volume of manga or DVD set of anime and I’m happier than a clam
[Reply]
February 15th, 2009 at 3:10 pm
I’m the between the “presents are good any day, not just V-day! Appreciate me all the time!” type and the “let’s just save for a new car since ours is about to die” type, hahahah.
[Reply]
February 15th, 2009 at 3:40 pm
wow! I love this blog… I would say I am primarily a Sweet Lolita, but I definitely have lots of Miss Adorkable qualities(I got the TVBGone, which you mentioned a while back, for Christmas), and I would DIE to have a canary in a pretty cage.
[Reply]
February 15th, 2009 at 9:56 pm
i’m a cross between sweet lolita and miss adorkable*…perhaps with a bit of a bargain-version fashionista thrown in.
*i have to say, getting a pocket flashlight for valentine’s day would be so hilariously excellent XD i would be forced to marry the boyfriend who got me one, seriously
[Reply]
February 15th, 2009 at 10:27 pm
I’m not into getting gifts, but I love the idea of giving them and I’m dying to Brazilian valentine’s come (Brazilian v-day is on June) so I can bake my lovely Mr. a delicious chocolate cake or something like that!
And I’d melt with a flower. Not a bouquet, but one! I find it much more romantic and pretty!
I’m more about giving than receiving…
So, I don’t really know….
I’m a Cacau type, after all XD
[Reply]
February 15th, 2009 at 11:34 pm
I guess I’m mostly Sweet Lolita, and just a teensy bit Fashionista.
My V-day date was definitely a Miss Adorkable. So cute! >u<

February 16th, 2009 at 10:21 am
I would’ve pegged myself Miss Adorkable, but by your definition I’m an Uptown Girl … who knew?
[Reply]
February 16th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
I’m somewhere between Sweet Lolita and Sex Kitten… is that possible?

Sweet lolita since that’s the style I actually wore. :x
[Reply]
February 17th, 2009 at 12:35 pm
I feel so bad for the boys in this! :( It seems most of them aren’t getting much for Valentine’s Day…
Though admittedly, I’m probably a combo of the Fashionista and Sweet Lolita.

February 19th, 2009 at 4:18 am
…I hate to say it, but I think I’d be the as-yet unwritten Hipster Valentine.
[Reply]
February 20th, 2009 at 11:56 pm
I’m part Sweet Lolita, part Miss Adorkable. ^^ I’m a total craft geek and I did actually give my boyfriend a handmade Valentine’s Day card! lol && I’m just a big nerd in general. I heart nerds too and love when a guy can ‘talk nerdy to me’! Hehe. Plus I agree with the whole loyalty thing; I’d NEVER cheat on my boyfriend! :D Overall I think you pretty much know what you’re talking about! Great job on this blog entry!
