Valentine’s Day Gift Guide & Giveaway
Welcome to February everyone! Today, I am happy to share a couple Valentine’s Day gift ideas as well as a an amazing giveaway with some of my favorite blogger friends. Let’s get started with my Valentine’s Day Gift Guide & Giveaway.
Scroll to the end to enter the Giveaway for a $1000 gift card to Nordstrom!
If you’re a loyal reader, than you know my Gift Guides are unique. I like to highlight my top 3-5 products and discuss why I love each item. Today, I’m going to highlight a few Men’s Gifts and a few Women’s Gifts. You already know my brand loyalty and how I discuss products. Many of the items on this list I either personally have owned for months to years or personally would purchase myself.
If you would like to take a look at my previous holiday gift guides, click my “Holiday” tab along with my updated “Shop” tab – they break down gifts by recipient.
Please note, that I always encourage intentional purchasing habits. I always say, does it spark joy? Be intentional with your purchases; don’t slip into “one-click” purchases & buying just because it’s on sale.
Finally, keep in mind that you may want to purchase gifts from stores that have excellent customer service (aka return policies) & add a gift receipt to your purchase!

Stylish Man: Sheecs Socks
- Everyone needs socks in their life, right?
- Well these Sheecs socks are amazing – I already own this brand and have showcased it in my “How to Wear Ballet Flats to Work” with their Sheecs SockShion and recently looked at their other sock product lines
- If your man likes to wear colorful, print and stylish socks with dress shoes, Sheecs definitely has him covered

Activity
- When it comes to gifts, it is nice to mix it up and go away from buying an item for someone
- My favorite is to gift activities to enjoy together – this includes a wide range of things
- Weekend getaway, day-trip to a local Museum, Disneyland, Universal Studios, Color Me Mine day, etc.
- It can also be spending time together outdoors – such as a hike together, fitness classes together…
- It can also be a couple’s day at the spa or massages together
Women’s:
Organize Love: Erin Condren
- For the organization obsessed woman in your life!
- Erin Condren Life Planner & accessories are just amazing
- I recently reviewed her products in my new Weekend Health Series – read more HERE
- You can fully customize an order to her liking
- Other ideas include coordinating her planner or notebook with a fun memory box, pillow or blanket!
Pamper: Dermalogica Facials & Massage
- Many women love a day of pampering!
- My recommendation is a facial at Dermalogica – I personally go for MicroZone facials and IonActive facials but there are other options available and a facials are customized to your skin care needs
- To finish off a facial, a massage would be amazing!
Sweet Tooth: Lette Macarons & Sweet Lady Jane
- I know I have a sweet tooth and love my desserts
- My favorites are macarons along with other cakes
- Luckily many bakeries now ship nationwide so even if you do not live in the Los Angeles area, 2 of my favorites are still available to order online!
- Macarons from Lette Macarons are my favorite! My favorite flavors are: Raspberry, Passion Fruit, Vanilla, and Chocolate. But all of them are amazing!
- Sweet Lady Jane was featured on Oprah’s Favorite Things and their signature Triple Berry Cake is amazing! I am also a big fan of their Linzer Cookies and Oreo Tiramisu.
