Valentine’s Day 2024: From Date Night Outfits to Cute Gift Ideas

January 25, 2024

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. Whether you’re celebrating with your significant other or with your girlfriends, it can be fun to dress up a little or at least wear something with pink or hearts on it. I personally love pink, glitter and hearts all year long. I have some outfit ideas and gift ideas for Valentine’s Day 2024, but I think we need to first take a look at the history of this “holiday”.

Valentine’s Day, a celebration of love and affection, has a rich history that dates back to ancient Rome. Believe it or not, this day of chocolates and heart-shaped cards started as a Roman festival called Lupercalia, celebrated in mid-February as a way to welcome spring. The festival involved pairings of women and men through a lottery system, but it wasn’t until the late 5th century that Pope Gelasius I replaced Lupercalia with St. Valentine’s Day. And the romantic connotations? Well, those evolved over time, especially during the Middle Ages when the notion of courtly love flourished. By the 18th century, gift-giving and handwritten notes had become common, and the industrial revolution in the 19th century only fanned the flames with factory-made cards. So next time you give or receive a Valentine’s gift, remember that you’re participating in a tradition that spans centuries!

Filmed a quick outfit of the day before my mother- Filmed a quick outfit of the day before my mother-in-law could see that I had my shoes on her white carpet.😅

Today will be a travel day. Heading home and feeling so grateful for everything in my life including the people and the incredible opportunities that have come my way.

Have a great weekend friends!💖

Today’s outfit is white cropped pants (longer on me at just 5’1”, but so perfect for us petite ladies who want to avoid alterations). Paired with the most flattering v-neck,  a pair of black slides and the most fabulous heart pendant necklace. Let me know if you want LINKS.

Yes to the opportunity.🙌🏻

Yes to the version of me that’s ready for more.🙌🏻

Because every flight booked is a chance to grow, explore, and step into something new. The outfit just comes along for the ride (and even better when it’s cute and takes you from travel to dinner).🙌🏻

Here’s your sign to stop waiting and start going. 

Where are you saying yes to next?

Sharing my outfit from a casual dinner with friend Sharing my outfit from a casual dinner with friends last night. Does it look familiar? I wore the same top and jeans in different colors a few videos back!😉

My cropped jeans are @oliverloganla and I love this brand because they carry petite lengths for us shorties. The brand is size inclusive and their products are made following ethical practices. They’re very affordable too!

I’m also sharing some of my new jewelry favorites and old treasures too along with a bag that I just couldn’t resist.

Please let me know if you want LINKS with the details.

Have the loveliest day and weekend ahead!💖

Skincare is one of my favorite forms of self care. Skincare is one of my favorite forms of self care.

I recently received a few skincare products from Starike, a KBeauty brand. This is the one that really stood out for me. It has a whopping 21% niacinamide and it’s still gentle on my skin.

Niacinamide can help to achieve a brighter, smoother complexion with a reduced appearance of pores. I’m excited to see what this will do for my skin over time.

🤩 You can see this pore serum and all of their products on the Skin-Seoul website or comment SHOP and I’ll send the details to your messages.
