Valentine’s Day Cocktail Recipes

February 5, 2019

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. Have you ever stopped to think about the origin of the holiday that we celebrate on February 14th? Me either! However, for the purpose of this post I thought I’d look it up. According to BBC, the day gets its name from a famous saint. It came to be celebrated as a day of romance from about the 14th century.

Every year my husband gets me a beautiful flower arrangement and a sweet card. Sometimes he gifts me chocolates or jewelry too. I find it incredibly difficult trying to figure out what to give my husband for this holiday. Men definitely have this one much easier when it comes to gifting. Let me know what your favorite gift to give on Valentine’s Day is. I need help! After celebrating 30 Valentine’s Days with my hubby I’m completely out of new gift ideas!

If you happen to be looking for new Valentine’s Day cocktail recipes to serve to your significant other or to your gal pals, I’ve got you covered! I’m a sucker for anything and everything pink, especially cocktails. LOL! Drinks that are our favorite color just taste better, don’t they? I’m actually not a big drinker of alcoholic beverages. However, I do enjoy a delicious and pretty cocktail from time to time.

I’ve recently taken several makeup classes and one I’ve recently taken several makeup classes and one of the common lessons is that dewy or glowy makeup is better for mature skin. I agree completely because I feel like it blurs my 61 year old wrinkles a little bit and makes my skin look hydrated and healthy.

Are you going to a wedding or another special even Are you going to a wedding or another special event this summer? This dress with the embroidered flowers and lace is a beautiful option.

It’s technically a midi, but more maxi on me because I’m a petite 5’1”. Available in 2 color options and lots more similar styles. And there’s even a warehouse sale happening right now with dresses starting at $39.

Let me know if you want the link with sizing details and discount code.💙💚

Happy new month friends! I’m sharing a cute outfit Happy new month friends! I’m sharing a cute outfit that’s perfect for a summer day of running my errands. My new large terry cloth tote is so fun and unique. It’s great for travel or even a day at the beach too.

Anybody traveling for the 4th of July weekend? We’re going to our usual destination where we hang with our kids and grandkids to enjoy the celebration which means I will be busy today getting ready to go.🎆

Dinner at one of my favorite restaurants in one of Dinner at one of my favorite restaurants in one of my favorite vacation places wearing one of my favorite dresses with my most favorite person in the world. 

Scroll to the right to see the back of this gorgeous pleated dress that packs into a little pouch making it travel friendly. It’s currently on sale too!☀️

The maxi dress has a raw hem so it’s super easy to cut without having to get it hemmed. That worked out perfectly for me and my petite 5’1” height. I cut 3 inches off the bottom of the dress and now it fits me exactly how I like it. I love the color too!

I’m loving the back of the dress so I thought I’d share it in a video when we were walking back from the restaurant after dinner. The restaurant is called Hacienda and it’s by the marina in Cabo. We’ve been going there for years. This trip we went there for brunch too and it was excellent! Highly recommend this restaurant for breakfast, lunch or dinner if you’re ever in Cabo.

*Let me know if you want DETAILS on what I used.*

Whether I’m spending days or nights by the water, I skip the heavy, full-coverage products and reach for lightweight favorites that let my skin breathe while still giving me that healthy, radiant glow.

Think: sheer coverage, a touch of bronzer, creamy blush, and plenty of luminosity. The goal isn’t a perfect makeup look—it’s looking like the best version of yourself while enjoying every minute of vacation.
