Valentine's Day Gift Guide 2016 | Pretty in Pink

1. S'well Water Bottle - I have one of these and they're great. I got the 24oz and thought it would be perfect, but I think it's a little too big, I'd go for the 17oz.

10. White + Warren Cashmere Gloves - If you live anywhere cold, you know gloves in the winter are a must. I love these because they're cashmere, which is super warm, and they're a fun pop of color on a gloomy winter day.
11. Diptyque Rosaviola Candle - Diptyque candles are the best, I've mentioned them a bunch of times before in different gift guides, and they have this really cute pink rose scent for the holiday which makes it even better.

2015 Holiday Gift Guide For MOM

I'm usually not a Christmas before Thanksgiving kind of person, but I know a lot of people like to get a jumpstart on their holiday shopping so I wanted to share some gift ideas for the moms (or soon to be moms) in your life. 

1. Longchamp Lepliage Neo Large Tote - I have 5 of these bags that I've accumulated throughout the years and they're really the best. They're affordable, sturdy, and fashionable. I've shoved so many things into them between traveling and moving and they've held up perfectly. Longchamp will repair the corners of the bags free of charge for life and can replace the straps for a small fee (I think it's maybe $40 but I'm not sure). This bag is perfect for the working mom, traveling mom, and fashionista mom.
2. Kate Spade Trinket Tray - If you're mom is anything like mine, she spends half of each day looking for her glasses. This adorable trinket tray will give her motivation to keep them in the same space, while also giving her bedside table a sweet girlish touch.
3. Tummy Butter For Stretch Marks - Sometimes it's hard to remember that a mom-to-be still needs some momma goodies. Stretch marks are something most women dread getting, and will go to any length to avoid. This tummy butter is raved about by pregnant women around the world and would be a really thoughtful (and useful) little gift. 
4. Fitbit Charge - Fitbits are all the rage, and if your mom is wanting to get back in shape, or already lives a fit lifestyle, this could be the perfect gift. There are various models, but this is my favorite, and it's the one I think is most 'mom-friendly.'
5. Agate Coasters - I am absolutely in love with these coasters. I think they're stunning and would be perfect for any mom that loves home decor. They come in a ton of colors and can be found almost anywhere, which means you can pick the ones that fit your mom the best.
6. Caudalie Premier Cru Anti-Aging Set - Beauty products are something my mom never wants to splurge on, so holiday season is the perfect time to get her something she wouldn't ever get herself. This anti-aging set from Caudalie is perfect for mature skin and made of all the best ingredients.
7. PJ Salvage Ski Jammies - PJ Salvage jammies are my favorite, and this red pair is super festive, you could get your mom a pair to wear for Christmas morning (or whatever other holiday you celebrate). You could even get a matching pair for yourself and your siblings. 
8. Diptyque Candle in Gardenia - I'm a huge candle buff, and Diptyque candles are some of my favorite. They're pretty pricey, but make a really beautiful gift, and if your mom is someone who loves candles, this could be perfect for her.
9. Joy of Cooking 75th Anniversary Edition - This is a great gift for the chef-mom. This is the holy grail cook book and if you're mom loves being in the kitchen this would be awesome. There are more recipes in this book than she'd ever have the time to cook.
10. J. Crew Gemma Flats - Every mom can rock a good pair of flats. They're comfy, cute, and practical. This specific pair are timeless and appropriate for any mom of any age. They come in tons of colors and patterns, so if plain black isn't what your mom is into, I'm sure there's a pair you can find that she'll love.

Mother's Day Gift Guide 2015

Mother's Day is quickly approaching so I thought it would be helpful to give you some ideas of cute things to get the special moms in your life ❤

1. Rebecca Minkoff Dex Card Case - Card cases are not only functional but they're really cute. I especially like this one because its really spacious and snaps shut. It also comes in a sky blue but I think seafoam is a gorgeous color for spring and summer.

2. Diptyque Candle - Candles make great presents and you can't go wrong with Diptyque. All of their scents are amazing, especially Roses and Gardenia.

3. 'Mom' Pendant - You don't need to break the bank to get your mom a cute piece of jewelry. This 'Mom' pendant is simple and nice and has a really sweet message behind it. It can easily be worn everyday and mixed in with other jewelry, so you should feel confident it will get some serious use.

4. Tory Burch Gift Set - This perfume smells like heaven. It is just the right blend of fruity and floral. I think it would be age appropriate for any mom and it lasts a really long time on the skin. In my opinion gift sets are the best way to do perfumes, you get the most bang for your buck and super cute packaging.

5. Bobbi Brown Hydrating Face Cream - Good skin care products are always nice presents because women usually don't want to splurge on themselves. Bobbi Brown has AMAZING skin care products and this face cream is great for creating a more youthful hydrated appearance.

6. 'You Are My Mom' Mug - Funny and functional, what's not to love? If your mom is big into coffee or tea you could pair this cute mug with some of her favorite flavors of either to make a cute little set.

7. Arthur George 'Milf' Socks -Mother's Day presents don't need to be serious or expensive. A thoughtful and funny mug can definitely do the trick. I usually tend to go this route for my Mom because she's also one of my best friends.

8. Essie Nail Polish - Nail polish is always something I can never have enough of. Essie has a really great Spring collection available and if you pair it with a gift certificate for a mani and pedi you have a really sweet, inexpensive gift.

9. Kitchen Aid Mixer - This one is more of a splurge but think of it as a present for you too. If you mom has great tools int he kitchen she's more likely to make yummy things for you and your family. I've been coveting this mixer for years and think I might break down and get it sooner rather than later.
