valentines day gift ideas 2021

Valentine’s Day gift ideas from top left: gemstone  beaded bracelet (only $25 and avl in other gems!) (great for stacking!) / heart layered necklace (under $100) / spring nail polish (hot IT color) / small black baguette bag (under $300) (hot IT bag) / lipstick set / heart sneakers (hot designer, under $200) / traditional candy box (under $100) /

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, this means we need to think about the perfect gift! I love to give my mom, husband, and kids gifts for Valentine’s Day. I feel like its a great day to celebrate everyone we love. A heart shaped box of chocolates is ideal for everyone on your Valentine’s list. I mean, very few people on this planet dislike chocolate. It’s so yummy!

Jewelry and fabulous nail polish are also great gifts for mom, and daughters teenage years and above. I also love these fabulous sneakers! Hint-if my hubby is reading this! This IT bag under $300 is an amazing choice as well.

Of course, along with chocolate, jewelry is a traditional and fabulous gift idea. I’m loving these stacking bracelets made from genuine gemstones. Can you believe they are only $25? That is a great price; plus they are handmade by a local San Jose, Mother/Daughter design team. At this price, you can buy two, three, or even four as a gift! Love that!

BAF Weekly IT List

BAF Weekly IT List from top left: blue sweater (on major sale and in additional colors!) / Chanel spring 2021 nail polish (stay tuned for upcoming review!) / Dior spring 2021 nail polish (review here) / Coach Swinger (review here) / Givenchy Antigona Soft (hot IT bag) / Eye pencil / Lunar New Year lipstick /

This is such a great time of year to shop. There are fabulous winter items on sale which are needed now; such as this cozy sweater which is on sale for under $100, and there are also spring products hitting store shelves. Not everyone is thinking about spring yet, which means this is the ideal time of year to snap up IT items; before everyone else decides to buy them!

This blue sweater is a favorite go-to of mine this winter season, and it’s on major sale! I love that it comes in several colors. So, if blue isn’t your thing, there are other hues to choose from. Love that!

Spring nail polish is cheery and bright this year! While Chanel is taking a classic approach to nail polish this spring season, Dior is making a splash! It’s up to you if you want classic or bright. They’re both right! Spring nail polish is a great way to add some cheer to your personal style on a dreary winter day. I love having spring nails this time of year! Which nail color style are you loving right now? Classic, or bright?

Late ’90’s and early 2000’s handbags are a huge thing right now! This cute little number from Coach was first introduced back in the day, and it’s making a huge comeback this year. Want to know what is fabulous about this IT bag? It’s under $300! Now, how often does that happen??? Love this!

The Givenchy Antigona celebrated its’ ten year anniversary last year. As part of the celebration, they introduced a soft version of their iconic IT bag, and I am here for it! This is proving to be a popular bag and will likely join the classic IT bag family it’s ancestor enjoys. The grey is on my wish list. Do you love it too?

This eye pencil has been in my arsenal for close to two decades. My favorite hue is “cocoa.” It is a great way to brighten up your eyes while on video conference calls, as well as making your eyes pop over your mask. It really is a beauty bag staple. Which color do you like?

Lunar New Year is fast approaching, and with it, comes more hope for the new year. If you are seeking the perfect gift for Lunar New year, check out my gift guide. If you want a touch of lucky red, this lipstick is perfection. It looks fabulous on video calls! Love!
