Valentines isn't just for lovers

I recently got a gel manicure for the first time for my birthday. It made my nails much stronger and they got really long, but I decided to go back to regular manicures because of the cost and I was worried about the health of my nails. I like to switch up my colors too frequently and I didn't want to rely on the salon to take off the gel when I got bored with my color. When I took off the gels and was deciding if I should get gels again, I found this article about nail care really informative. 

I'm still looking for a great lip balm. If you're looking for a new lip balm too, you may want to check here

Check out the selection of makeup organizers here. I'm thinking about getting the rotating version.

Below are some pink and red items for Valentines Day and beyond. Valentine's Day doesn't have to focus on boyfriend/girlfriend or husband/wife relationships, it can be a good time to tell loved ones or special friends that you care.  I don't think we tell people how much they mean to us enough, so this is a perfect time.  If you're inclined, you can even buy them a small token (socks or a mug) or splurge (Golden Goose sneakers) to show them that they are special. Remember, you can show yourself self-love and buy something for you. Below are some options to consider.

1. Red wide leg pants 2. Heart mug 3. Heart confetti phone case 4. Rose gold sneakers

5. Heart hoops.  6.Pink mules 7. Pink slides 8. Heart tee 9. Heart button down

10. Heart patch tee 11. Pink/red one piece 12. Chevron pillow 13. Open toe mules

14. Cashmere crew 15. Waffle knit 16. Beret 17. striped tee 18. Socks

19. Sneakers 20. Pink cami (on sale) 21. Tie-neck top (on sale) 22.  Vintage pj set  (on sale) 

23. One piece heart print suit (on sale) 24. Socks (on sale) 25. Socks (on sale) 26. Hair bow (on sale) 

27 Pink heels (on sale) 28. Pink loafers (run large) 29. Pom pom straw bag Who isn't thinking of the beach right now? This is available through a company based in the UK, and they do deliver to the U.S., but it's pricey.  It was too adorable and one of a kind not to include. In addition to it being adorable, 10 percent of the proceeds go to Mothers2Mothers charity. You can get your initials or someone else's hand painted on it. So, it may be worth the shipping because you're helping the world be a better place and no one else will have it. Purchase justified in my opinion.

28. Rug 29. You perfume  It's my signature scent. 30. Gucci Bloom rollerball Gucci is on fire, so, if you can't afford loafers or a bag, you can get in on the brand with this! I like rollerballs bc you can throw them in your bag for a refresher during the day or night.  They are also a great way to try a new fragrance.
