My husband and I have actually never really been that big on giving gifts, especially big gifts, for Valentine’s Day. I’m not sure why, it’s just never been our thing. Since we started dating almost 11 years ago, we have always made it a tradition to cook and enjoy a fancy dinner at home. It definitely feels a lot more personal and intimate than going out. I say all of this as a huge preface because I totally realize that most people do exchange gifts and prefer to go out, which is a wonderful alternative! I’m all about people doing things that work best for them! With that said, today I put together a little list of some of my favorite Valentine’s inspired gifts for any lady in your life (in case you’re looking for ideas). I may or may not have already purchased a few of these for myself… so hint, hint, you’ll probably be seeing the Old Navy heart sweatshirt around later this week!
What are your plans for Valentine’s Day?
2. I’m not kidding when I say that Old Navy Rockstar jeans feel like you are wearing leggings. These are my total go-to jeans, and I have multiple pairs in different styles and colors. They have the perfect amount of stretch, run true to size, and definitely don’t look like your typical “mom jean”. They are also super affordable and are almost always on sale!
3. This clutch is a total lifesaver, and I am not even exaggerating when I say that. I am pretty much over the days of carrying a giant diaper bag around when we go out because it’s really not necessary anymore now that Harper is older. It holds all of my essentials, and even has a fold out changing pad attached inside – how cool is that?!
4. Flats are a momiform must. They’re easy to throw on and are ideal for chasing around your little one(s). I wear my leopard loafers at least 3-4 times a week because they add a fun touch and can liven up any outfit. I like the look and feel of a loafer versus a traditional flat because they tend to be more comfortable and lightweight.
5. Adding simple accessories is the way to go as a mom. I used to be really into big statement necklaces, but those just aren’t practical for every day life anymore. I swore I wouldn’t get into the choker trend, but now that I’ve tried it I have to say I kind of love it. This simple bow choker is so sweet and adds the perfect finishing touch! Also, don’t forget a great pair of sunglasses.
For all of my fellow mamas, what 5 pieces would you include in your momiform?
