When you go shopping at Target, I bet all you see is red and pink. Valentine’s Day decor is EVERYWHERE and I’m not mad about it.
I love the color red and have since I was in high school. While I don’t wear too much of it anymore, it’s always a fun color to decorate the apartment with. I even bought myself a Buffalo Check wreath a few years ago for Christmas and it’s been on my front door for the past year. It’s too pretty to take down, to be completely honest.
This year, not only did I want to give you some fun Valentine’s Day gifts to buy for yourself, but I also wanted to share some amazing Valentine’s Day decor ideas too! I’ve included some rustic, farmhouse-inspired decor and a ton of throw pillows. Honestly, who doesn’t love a good throw pillow?
These items are super fun and can be utilized all year round if you’re creative enough.
It doesn’t matter if you’re single, taken, or just looking for a way to treat yourself this Valentine’s Day. Everyone deserves the chance to get something special this year! Get into the Valentine’s Day Spirit by treating yourself!
If you know me, you know that I am a BIG fan of treating myself to the things I want any day of the year. I work hard for the money I earn so why not treat myself to things I want ALL year round. I wanted to add items to this list that are versatile and can be purchased at anytime. So why not make every day a day to love on yourself a little more!
Now, forget about the box of chocolates and flowers… Get something that’s on that wish list of yours.
One of my favorite luxe purchases was a Burberry scarf about 10 years ago (to be completely honest) and I absolutely love wearing it in the fall and winter! It’s a comfortable, cozy staple that I can look forward to wearing every single year! So, what are you treating yourself with this year? I’d love to know! Comment below.
I wanted to create a gift guide for the modern woman who loves rose gold. I spent hours scouring the internet and handpicked the following 20 items that I think you’ll love!
This post was originally published in October 2017 (wow, that was a long time ago), but I knew I needed to update the products and give you some new items to consider! I also made it so you can shop directly from this post!

As you create your holiday shopping lists for friends and family, don’t forget to figure out what stocking stuffers you’ll get for your spouse!
Finding small but meaningful gifts to fill your spouse’s Christmas stocking can be tough for anyone – even those who have been with their significant other for a serious amount of time. Fortunately, there are plenty of things you can buy to include that they’ll be sure to love – and find value in.
In need of a little stocking stuffer inspiration for your other half?
Here are ten great stocking stuffers your spouse is sure to appreciate:
Clever Keychain
A keychain can make the perfect stocking stuffer – they’re small but come in a wide variety, which means you can definitely find one your spouse is certain to love. Consider a keychain to celebrate their favorite condiment, a beloved pet, or something personalized for a fun surprise.
Bluetooth Speaker
Bluetooth speakers have become incredibly affordable. Even if your home is equipped with a serious sound system, you can still find use in these little devices. For instance, you can bring a Bluetooth speaker to your backyard BBQ, picnics in the park, soccer practice, camping, or just about any other scenario where you’d want to listen to a littLe music.
Smartphone Accessory
Phone accessories have always made great stocking stuffers. An extra charging cable or car mount can make a thoughtful and practical contribution to your significant other’s stocking. If they’re into taking photos with their smartphone, an attachable lens or tripod could make fun gifts.
Card Game
Card games are small and compact, allowing them to fit easily into stockings. You don’t have to opt for a standard deck of cards here – instead, see what games are on the market! Card games like What Do You Meme and Joking Hazard are a ton of fun to play with friends, but there are tons of others out there to choose from.
Novelty Socks
If you think your spouse would appreciate a pair of fun socks, throw a pair or two into their stocking! From pairs that let you celebrate their love of PB&J to custom socks featuring your face (or your pet’s), a pair of socks is a cheap, easy and fun surprise to find – and one that will help keep them warm through the cold winter months!
Poo-Pourri
This novelty toilet spray got a lot of attention in recent years, thanks to its hilarious advertising and surprisingly effective product. Whether your spouse knows exactly why this one’s in their stocking or it’s more of a funny novelty gift, you’ll be surprised by how great this stuff actually smells.
Something Delicious
No stocking is truly stuffed without at least one treat hidden inside! Include gourmet chocolates, a bag of expensive coffee, an interesting bottle of hot sauce, or some beef jerky. Whether it’s devoured as you open your Christmas presents or saved for later, it certainly won’t go to waste!
Love Coupons
Show your spouse how much you care by slipping some love coupons into their stocking. You can DIY your own or order a printable set. Either way, these make a fun and romantic Christmas gift that any spouse is sure to appreciate.
Bottle Opener
If you enjoy sharing an adult beverage at the end of a long day, a bottle opener can make a great stocking stuffer. Opt for a fancy wine opener, a personalized bottle opener, or a combination of the two.
Fancy Lotion
During the cold winter months, a fancy lotion, lip balm, or beard butter can make a perfect stocking stuffer. Highly useful for protecting your skin against the elements, gift your spouse something slightly nicer than they’d purchase for themselves to make this practical gift feel a little more special.
Hopefully these ideas have equipped you with the inspiration you need to go out and fill your spouse’s stocking!
