Wear heart-shaped sunglasses, preferably in pink. Drive around town in them, or just peer over the tops.
Wear lace stockings.
Send Valentines to your family, coworkers, or friends. CVS-style punch outs with Disney Princesses, handmade ones from scraps of ribbon, or origami cranes with love notes written on the wings.
Send all of your notes with complicated emoticons or tiny pixelated emoji!
If you're feeling daring, add pink wefts of dyed human hair into your natural hair for the day. Bonus points if you curl them!
Give yourself pink nails or a French manicure! I'm wearing Timeless Rose by OPI. Copious rhinestones are a must!
Buy yourself flowers, even if other people will. Keep them in your room, beside your bed.
Mix heart-shaped cinnamon candies into fruit salad before serving.
Make a delicious treat, like pink cupcakes, Rice Krispy treats with heart-shaped sprinkles mixed in, or chocolate-coated anything!
Go to the drugstore by yourself and go on a candy shopping spree! Gummies that look like Cupid - check. As many heart-shaped boxes of chocolates as you can carry? Check. Wax bottle candy? Check.
Loop a cheesy Valentine's-themed men's tie around your neck.
Take pictures of yourself blowing kisses and making smoochie faces - heart and star-shaped balloons are extra fun. Send them to anybody who loves you - friends, SO, or family - or covertly post them on a social networking site where your exes are bound to see them and kick themselves for leaving you ;)

I also suggest tying balloons around your pigtails as well - heart- or star-shaped would be grand! - if you're doing abovementioned jealousy-inducing photoshoot :)
