Valentine's Day Gift Guide.

Valentine's Day is one of my favorite holiday's. Walking into a store and taking in all the reds, pinks, purples, hearts, balloons, cards, bags, candies, everything makes my heart smile. As I've mentioned before, spoiling the people around me is one of my favorite past times, so I tend to go a little over the top, however, my bank account would never show it. You can pour out your heart without pouring out your wallet. Here's a Valentine's Day Gift Guide for everyone in your life without breaking the bank! 

1. Ralph Lauren Wallet, $14 at TJ Maxx

Last year, I wanted to buy my boyfriend something different than candy and clothes. I was strolling through TJ Maxx when I stumbled upon this bad boy. It was so him and he absolutely loves it! (He switched his wallet over at Valentine's Day dinner last year, lol.) 

2. Broquet, $10-30 

Although I've never made one for him, I know my honey would absolutely love this! Tailor this to his interests! If I was making one for my babe, I'd include cigars, skittles, lotto tickets, and lots of airplane bottles! It's simple to make, too-- attach your "flowers" to wooden skewers with hot glue, arrange them in a decorative pot or beer mug, and add some Valentine's Day stickers and ribbon! (The dollar store has a TON of really cute embellishments right now!) 

3. Watch, less than $100 at Macy's

I bought my babe this exact watch for graduation. I won't say exactly how much it was because more than likely he's reading this, but I will say that I got it on an amazing deal! I love that I got him a quality watch from a designer brand but for far less than retail! Plus Macy's sends out 20% off coupons all the time! Add a cutesy card like "I love the time we spend together!" and you'll be Valentine's Day ready! 

1.  Friendship Bangle, $28 at Alex and Ani

I'm obsessed with the Alex and Ani bangles! They're lightweight and perfect for stacking. This BFF pair takes me back to my childhood days of buying BFF necklaces at Claire's but these are far cuter. There's hundreds of designs for every occasion, sorority, college, pet, military branch, and whatever else you can think of! 

*These are great for your wish list, too! 

2. Cutesy Pink Tumbler, $15 (idea from here!)

Obviously change the tag from teacher to bestie, but how cute is this! This is probably the easiest and most fun gift to give to your girls! Fill the cup with Valentine's Day candy, a face mask packet, a $5 starbucks gift card, or any of the stuff above! Target has a ton of cute little treats in their dollar bin (heaven on earth) right now! 

3. Valentine You're the (bath) Bomb, less than $15 (awesome tutorial here!)

I live under a rock, so up until recently, I had no idea how magical bath bombs truly were. That being said, give your girls a gift to help them relax! This tutorial is so easy and unbelievably cheap! Throw them in a mason jar like this and (of course, my favorite) embellish it up! They'll absolutely love that you spent the time to do something homemade and love that they have an excuse to leave those dirty dishes in the sink until morning. 

1. Too Faced Blushing Bronzer, $34 

(Amazing Ulta gifts here)

Okay, okay. This is more than I would usually ever spend on makeup but you deserve it! Four years ago, I bit the bullet and bought the Urban Decay Naked Palette for myself for Valentine's Day and it was seriously the best gift I ever could have bought myself! I'm still loving it! 

2. Kendra Scott Elle Earrings, $34 at Nordstrom

Thanks to my bestie and boyfriend, I am the proud owner of two pairs of Kendra Scott Elle earrings (white and cobalt!). And to say that I'm obsessed would be an understatement! I'm a huge fan of statement jewelry but these are so simple and classic that it's a statement without yelling 

"HEY Y'ALL I'M HERE!" These are perfect to add to your wish list this Valentine's Day because whether you're dropping "subtle" hints to your man or thinking of treating yourself, these beauts are on sale just in time! Retailing at over $52 usually, these are about $20 cheaper. Win, win in my book! 

3. Lilly Pulitzer Tumbler, $15 Lilly Pulitzer

Honestly, anything Lilly related will always be on my wish list. But these are soooo perfect! So perfect, in fact, I have three... or four or five... My mom won't let me feed my addiction to these cups, BUT if I did, it'd be this Hot Spot one! These hold an entire bottle of water and do a great job at keeping it cool all day! I promise that these tumblers will brighten your day! 

Happy shopping!
