Valentines Gift Guide for the Hostess

 I love to host gatherings with friends and family.  Whether it's a holiday soiree, summer barbecue, or just a casual get together, its fun to plan, shop, and decorate for the event!  My husband is the chef in our family and he usually takes care of the shopping and cooking.  I do all the planning and decorating and take care of cleaning too, so we make a pretty good team!  I like pay special attention to the details.  For example, picking up fresh cut flowers for the table or incorporating some of my favorite and treasured items like our champagne flutes from our wedding or my antique pie dishes.  I also like to bring out or shop for items that go along with the theme of the party - like canning jars for drinks at a summer barbecue or dishes/linens that reflect a spring theme for an April brunch.  

Valentines Day is just around the corner and many of you may be attending Valentines or Galentines Day parties or perhaps hosting one yourself. Williams Sonoma is currently having a sale up to 30% off on their Valentines favorites that you don't want to miss!  Make sure you pick up your favorites and if you plan on attending a V-Day soiree, get one for the hostess as well!  Shop some of my favorites below!

How cute are these heart shaped white marble coasters, cheese board, and this cheese knives set?  I love the look of white marble and the heart shaped design adds a special romantic touch for Valentine's Day or any occasion!

Valentines Gift Guide For Her: Dresses

I had so much fun selecting soft and cozy pajamas and slippers for my first Valentines Guide Gift Guide that I started working on this one shortly after!  If you didn't get a chance to read my first post, you can check it out here!  It's the perfect time to start thinking about gifts for your loved one!  Today, I'm sharing my favorite gifts for her in the dress department! These are ideas for the women in your life...your spouse, your mom, your sister, or your bestie!  For those of you that have been following me here on the blog, you know how much I adore the sweet, feminine, and sometimes sassy style of dresses.

Featured:

Dress: this Tahari red bow fit and flare dress (similar here, here, and here) 

Shoes: Halogen red bow ankle strap flats (sold out) (similar here, here, and here)

First things first, you will need to find out what size to purchase and this can be difficult if you are not intimately close!  If you want to keep it a surprise, you'll need to check dress labels in her closet and make sure it's a dress she has worn recently!  If you don't have access to her closet, you can follow general US women's sizing guidelines here.  If you're still unsure, it's best to be conservative and get a gift receipt.  When in doubt, go with a medium.  If the size is wrong, she can take it back and exchange it for her correct size and she won't feel insulted!  

The second important thing to understand is knowing her style.  There are different categories of dresses and knowing her preferences will really make her gift more personalized.  For purposes of this blog post, I've broken it down into three style categories: 1) Casual Classy; 2) Feminine and Flirty; and 3) Hot Mama! :)   

1.  Casual Classy style is for the active and fit woman on the go.  This lady prefers casual comfort and style with not a lot of fussiness and frills! She is the type of woman who throws her hair in a pony tail, feels her best in sneakers and denim, and takes care of business exuding confidence and natural beauty.  Here are a few dress ideas if this is who you are shopping for:

  

2.  Feminine and Flirty style is for the woman who loves the fun and frilly details - bows, scallops, ruffles, sprinkles, lace, glitter, bubbles, confetti, etc!  This lady has a sparking personality and intoxicating smile!  She loves to dream big and play hostess for parties taking care of all the pinterest inspired details!  She is the type of woman who takes time getting ready in the morning, styling her hair, playing with makeup, and accessorizing her outfits!  Here are a few dress ideas if this is who you are shopping for:

3.  Hot Mama: let's face it, what's hot is what you feel confident and sexy in and that includes all three style categories.  Hot mama is for the woman who has the curves in all the right places.  She feels her best in high heels and body hugging silhouettes that show off all her best assets!  This lady loves to stand out in a crowd and has a sassy but sweet personality!  She is the type of woman who exudes class, keeping her style very simple, graceful, and elegant.  Here are a few Valentines Day dress ideas if this is who you are shopping for:

No matter what style, all of these dresses would make for a very nice and personalized gift for her on  Valentines Day.  The dresses I selected as part of my gift guide can really be worn any time of the year but it's always fun to wear red and/or pink on this romantic holiday.  

Do you have any special plans for Valentines Day this year?  I love hearing all about the fun "Galentine" parties many ladies participate in!  My plans generally consist of helping my boys with creating their Valentines for their classmates.  My husband and I usually don't go out on Valentines Day...it's hard to get reservations at our preferred restaurants and wait times and crowds make me very cranky.  Usually we stay home, prepare a nice family dinner together with our kids,  make some ice cream sundaes, and watch a good Netflix movie.  That's all it takes to make this mom feel special and loved.  

Stay tuned for more Valentines Gift Guides coming soon!  If you haven't had a chance to sign up for my newsletter you can subscribe here!  It's a great way to connect with all of you about new posts, great sales you don't want to miss, Q&A on various fashion, beauty, home decor, and travel topics, and so much more!  Don't worry, I won't overcrowd your inbox!  Also, don't forget you can shop all of the looks from my blog on my shop page!

Thanks for Visiting! 

With Love,

Hayley
