Valentines Day ♡♡

I have always loved Valentines day, I have always really enjoyed celebrating love. For me, it's never been about a relationship or anything like that; it's always been about making other people (yes, plural, people) feel loved.



There are a ton of things that you can do on Valentines Day if you aren't in a relationship. Some ideas might be, having a slumber party with your friends, play video games, buy as much chocolate as your heart desires (and eat as much as you want!), enjoy a glass (or five) of wine, bake cookies or cupcakes. Don't limit yourself! Find new exciting things to do on Valentines day. That way, it's not just a horrible holiday only for people in a relationship. Like I said, that is not what it is about! Last year, even though I was (and still am) dating someone, I went over to a friends house and brought over some cookies that my mom and I baked, drank, and watched movies. It honestly was one of the best Valentines day I ever had.



This year my boyfriend and I are trying to plan some things out and actually do something. Since I work weekends, it's a little difficult to find time to do these things (at least on weekends). I'm trying to figure out what I am going to get him this year. I have some ideas. If you have a boyfriend some great ideas on what to get him are: video games, vinyl records, dvds or blurays, a watch, or maybe a nice shirt. If you're looking for something to get your girlfriend: flowers (always an amazing gift if you know she loves them!), jewelry (it doesn't have to be real, it's just the thought that counts), a nice floral dress, or a cute iphone case (wildflowercases.com has a great red with white hearts one). These are just ideas, so you are definitely not limited to just these ideas. Plus, it's always great to personalize your gift specific to that person. Not all girls want flowers or anything like that. Also, there is no shame in not exchanging gifts either. If you and your loved one aren't really Valentines day type, binge watching netflix is always fun! Just to avoid any argument it's always best to discuss your thoughts on Valentines day first.



My boyfriend and I already discussed going out on a date. And yesterday I ordered a new outfit just for the occasion. Plus, I needed to add some more pieces to my wardrobe anyways. I got all of these items at forever21.com. And their site also has a ton of ideas for what to wear on Valentines day. I always like cute florals and anything red and pink!

That about wraps things up. I will be updating sometime soon the reviews I promised as well as my Valentines day! I hope yours is magical and you have a great time no matter what you do! Thanks for reading! ♡♡

New Years Resolutions ♡♡

I know it's been 6 days since 2014 and we've probably already broken a resolution or two, but I found a really neat idea to start this year right without being too crazy. One blog I really enjoy to read is Lauren Conrad's. I think her and the other bloggers on her site have some really great and creative ideas. I was kind of inspired by her New Years Resolutions post to make my own!



♡ A bad habit I'm going to break: Smoking. I've already cut down a lot and my goal is to be smoke free by February 1st!
♡ A destination I'd like to visit: The east or west coast. I'm not picky on where I just have never been to either! Plus I am overdue for a vacation!!
♡ I'm going to work harder at: saying organized! I'm horrible about cleaning sometimes and I really need to get my room into shape so I can paint it and plus I need to show off my Sailor Moon collection!
♡ A project I'd like to finish: This isn't really a project per-say but I would like to save up some money! I saw one on Facebook that was save a dollar a week, increasing a dollar each week for the year and you will have saved over $1000 so I'm going to try something like that!
♡ A class I'd like to take: A women's hair color class! I am slightly behind on women's hair coloring trends simply because I work at a barbershop mostly catered towards men. I would like to really like to take a lot of classes honestly.
♡ I'd like to spend more time doing: art. I love to draw and I consider myself to be a fairly artistic person but I am so out of practice!
♡ A food I want to eat more of: veggies! I'm horrible about eating decent foods. 

♡ I want to wear more: colors! I love pastels but lately all I've worn is black and white and grey. I did get a pair of brown boots so I'm proud of that but I need more colors!
What are your resolutions? Let me know in the comments!♡♡
