Love is in the air
Happy Monday, I hope everyone rocked this Monday and was able to shake off those Monday Blues! As the most loved filled week of the year begins I wanted to share some Valentine’s day themed inspiration and my thoughts on the Holiday!
Kinda sorta maybe unpopular opinion but as a single gal I actually I love valentines day! As we all know or have been fed, Valentine’s day was invented by the greeting card company yatta yatta. But how could I not love a holiday revolved around chocolate! oh yeah and Love! But really valentine’s day is about being unapologetic-ally in love! In love with another person, your loved ones and most importantly in love with yourself!
True story I have been single for a lot of Valentines days but it has never stopped me from feeling the love, eating the chocolate and being just a tinsy but cliche, so why should this year be any different! Each year,even when I have been dating someone or have had a “ traditional” valentine. My mom and sister have been my valentines. They mean so much to me and I love showing them with a small token of appreciation on the day!
Along with my sister and Ma, I love hanging out with my girlfriend’s/ best guy friend and doing something special for valentine’s day! This year I’m planning on a little valentine’s girl’s night in with some of my gals single and taken alike. I selected two of my favorites bottles that will definitely be on hand for the occasion. a classic and cheap Rose and a delicious Rose Cava. I got both from total wine ( shocker right?) and they are definitely my go to’s. I’ve linked them here and here for you to shop them!
Fun fact I get like a significant amount of my materials and decorations for anything I host from the dollar tree. this is real life y’all. You do of course have to sift through some cheesy and cheap stuff but dollar tree is full of hidden gems, if you don’t know now you knoww. I picked up these glitter hearts, heart wine glasses, a vase, drink containers and the banners from the dollar tree. I picked up the ceramic candy dishes at Marshall’s which you can total use year round!
I’m super excited for valentine’s day this year single or not because I know that I have an amazing support system of amazing girlies who are there for me and love me unconditionally. Although a bit cheesy and cliche at times valentines day is not only the perfect excuse but a great reason to shower your loved ones and your self with all the love! You deserve it!
What are you getting into this valentines day? Let me know in the comment’s below!
