Those looking for a way to celebrate February's romantic holiday, by either surprising a loved one in an intimate fashion, or giving them a memorable gift, are sure to appreciate the new Opening Ceremony Valentine's Day collection.
Included is a black pizza-branded robe, a burger-branded robe, and a more traditionally decorated satin robe that features a hand holding a red rose on the chest. Also included in the Opening Ceremony Valentine's collection is a lilac-hued slip dress, leopard print intimates, t-shirts, earrings and an adorable bear plush toy.
Like the robes, the tees feature small graphics on one side of the chest, such as a candy heart that states "REAL LOVE" inside of it, a phone with "I LOVE YOU" coming from it, and an image of cupid which is shown alongside the words "Call me."
