I heart you!

i-heart-you

With Valentine’s Day coming up – it’s time to wear your heart on your sleeve … Chocolate and flowers are great but here are some other ideas that say “I heart you!”

I personally love a great clothing or jewelry piece with a cute heart – it’s fun! But you can also wear it on days that just aren’t Valentine’s Day! Love is in the air so why not show it!

My 8 best Valentine’s Day Picks

Red and pink are the classic Valentine’s day colours – but you can celebrate the holiday with other colours, too! I’m a big fan of neutrals but also leopard print so this Stella and Dot top is perfect for the holiday or any day!

Another great Valentine’s Day sweater is this cute cashmere crew neck from J.Crew – who doesn’t love cashmere? Again the heart detail is perfect for the holiday but this can really be worn anytime of the year!

I love red, I love cashmere and I love leopard – so this has everything! Such a cute sweater from J.Crew – pair it with some ankle length black pants or jeans – it’s fun for work or play!

Don’t forget about him! Heart boxers are perfect for sleep or as undies! You could even wear them yourself with a tee or tank for lounging around at home! These J.Crew boxers are so fun and I love that they offer a sale when buying multiples – so if you can’t decide on a design – get a few!

Another great gift and this is something I get my husband (because he won’t get socks himself) are fun dress socks. These heart design socks are subtle but still say “I love you”!

I love these cute hoops! I got them last year (in silver for my birthday) – they come in gold, silver and rose gold! They are about a medium size hoop and very lightweight. I always get lots of compliments on mine whenever I wear them!

Sometimes simple is best! These diamond-like heart shaped studs are a perfect gift (I’m getting these for my daughter…) This style of earring is timeless and works with every outfit!

A photo frame is a great gift and I am a huge fan of Rae Dunn so this photo frame is just perfect!

I hope these gift ideas have inspired you (or maybe you have added to your wishlist…) But when it comes to giving and receiving, it is always the thought that counts…

Gifts that Sparkle

gifts-that-sparkle

Gifts under $50 – Gifts that sparkle for under $50….

The Holidays are for sparkle! I personally love to wear a bit of bling everyday – sometimes it’s subtle and sometimes it’s a bit bolder. I love to receive a great jewelry piece but I love to give a great accessory, too!

What I love so much about jewelry is that it can really transform an outfit from day to night or it can just spruce up a very basic outfit. A touch of bling can also really show off your personality.

I have rounded up my favourite gifts that sparkle and they are all under $50 …..

Sparkle Gift Guide

  1. Dorado wrap bracelet
  2. Essential sculptural bangle
  3. Attica multi-wrap bracelet
  4. Delicate Horn necklace
  5. Love necklace
  6. Ulani ring
  7. Pave Orbital Ring
  8. Essential Hoops (gold or silver)
  9. Star Climber Earring
  10. XOXO studs

Why I love these gifts….

These are some of my personal favorite pieces. I wear these regularly – to work or on a date night. I love for different reasons – the horn necklace is perfect for someone who loves to layer. The hoops are a classic (I have them in silver and gold) – they are a great day to night transition piece. The sculptural bangle is another classic that I often wear with my hoops – it’s very simple but so chic (I also love the gold version). The Ulani ring (which is on a HUGE sale right now) is very minimalist but so unique – it’s perfect for someone who likes to be different but still simple. The pave orbital ring – I wear almost everyday! It is very flattering on – it can be worn everyday or for special occasions.

The Star Climber earrings are subtle but a bit edgy with a touch of bling! When I don’t want a simple diamond stud – I reach for these….The XOXO studs are a great gift for a teen or pre-teen girl – so cute! For someone who loves an arm party (ie stacking bracelets) both the Attica and the Dorado are great options – as they are one piece but they look like you have multiple bracelets on – so chic and I get a tone of compliments on my Attica (also the clasp is magnetic – so it’s really easy to put on and take off)…The Love necklace is also a great layering necklace (the cursive script is really cute) and a great gift for a teen or pre-teen (they also have matching hoops and it comes in silver or gold) – who doesn’t love love?

To give the gift of sparkle you really don’t have to drop a small fortune – you can add some bling on any budget ….
