the ultimate valentine.

...outfit, of course. the ultimate valentine's outfit.
i said i've been loving peach as of late, but in the spirit of the day, here's an all out, in your face red and pink valentine's day outfit.

i've also been loving these fat lip pencils from LAQA & Co. they are super creamy and pigmented and glide on with ease. they aren't too drying and are even a bit glossy. plus, they don't require a sharpener...bonus! i've been wearing 'palate cleanser', a deep blood red, from the Fat Lip Pencil Fiver set. if you find that dark colors make your lips look smaller, try extending the color slightly past your natural lips for a fuller pout.

he's the bomb. valentine's gift guide.

ain't he the [spice] bomb?
while we're sitting pretty in peach, we like our guys a little more dark and mysterious. here are my picks for [black] accessories that are masculine and edgy.


spicy. with notes of pink pepper & grapefruit, to cinnamon & saffron, to leather & tobacco, this just sounds manly. if not for the scent, get this for the bottle. it's just cool. 


one word...sexy.



athlete or not, the nike pegasus is a great neutral shoe that's stylish enough to wear whether he's working out or not.



the ultimate guy cleansing product for hair, face, and body. pair it with the Industrial Strength Hand Healer for those hard-working hands and the Intense Therapy Lip Balm to keep those lips kissable,



a man candle, or "mandle", as i recall hearing...the noire is presented in black colored glass with scents of rose and blackcurrant leaves.



is your man a suit? this cool tie would be perfect for casual edgy fridays.


these shades will definitely raise the coolness factor of the person wearing them.


for the guy who will literally run for beer, how fun are these beer socks? not a beer drinker? liquor, wine, and even food socks available, too.




every guy needs a great briefcase. the original is rugged and functional with plenty of room. or splurge on the 72-Hour Briefcase which includes a Joey electronics charger that's perfect for your working guy on the go.

what to drink?
rich and mellow wood-aged port wine.

pairs perfectly with many desserts. try serving it with a plate of figs, strawberries, and nuts.

she's a peach. valentine's gift guide.

ain't she a [golden] peach?
valentine's day is around the corner, and i've been loving all things peach and coppery-gold. in the sea of pinks and reds, make your gift stand out with this soft and romantic shade.


want her kissable lips? this limited edition lip scrub exfoliates while coating the lips with a yummy burst of peach.


set of five fat lip pencils in the perfect peach to pink shades. creamy and pigmented, these pencils need no sharpener.



pretty but rustic at the same time, these copper mugs are perfect for hot cocoa and romantic snuggles by the fireplace.



set the mood with this fruity mix of asian peach, nectarine, and crushed vanilla bean.




nail strips are something girls would love to have, but wouldn't necessarily buy for themselves. if you get them, they will wear them. current special is any 5 sheets for $25 + free shipping with code: 5pack


these peachy shades are perfect for spring looks.

your girl will be irresistible with this sampling of fresh scents. 



Steve Madden Varcityy Pump in Blush Suede, $100
every girl needs a nude heel. not too brown, not too gray, these blush colored pumps are the perfect neutral shade.



another thing every girl would use...if they had one. these coppery headphones are a luxury she wouldn't buy for herself, so splurge for her.



i'm not too familiar with this particular subscription box, but based on a review of their last box (tarte bronzing serum? yes, please!), it's totally worth its $21 price. four full-sized products and one luxury sample-sized item, the box definitely pays for itself and more.



one-of-a-kind personalized coupons for your loved ones. more details here.
