Valentines Day Gifts on a BUDGET!


 Love is in the air! 

Valentines day is known as the official day of love, but really every day should be that way in my opinion....seriously!  
In a little over three weeks, how will you spend your day / evening? Do you have a significant other that you'd like to buy a gift for? Or maybe even your mom, dad, or friend?!
 Below are some thoughtful gifts that he or she will truly love. Best thing is, be treating your wallet too--they are affordable!
 Don't forget to love yourself too! :)

FOR HER:



You don't have to break the budget to find something cute and thoughtful for your girl to wear. Rings with engraved text on them are a nice option, maybe a nice quote or saying that she may go by.
If you like this one, you can get it here.

Taylor Swift's Wonderstruck perfume, if your woman is romantic and fun, she is bound to love this scent. The packaging is also SO cute with little charms hanging on the bottle!





Jessica Simpson's Fancy perfume, maybe your woman is a bit more fancy and mature but still loves a great scent. If so, this will be perfect for her :)


Oh my gosh, Aromatherapy! Bath and Body Work's 3 wick candles are essential for this Valentines Day. The aromatherapy line has a bunch of relaxing scents that are geared towards soothing your lady. Maybe even pick up the sensual ones ;) B&BW always has some great sales going on where you can get deals on candles, maybe get more than one for a great price! Also, you can get them discounted on amazon,



Body lotion is also a great idea. Victoria's Secret Love Spell seriously smells heavenly ! 
It's thoughtful and practical, and I don't know a girl who doesn't loooove the VS scents.
Buy it discounted here!



If your girl loves to paint her nails, check out these options!

Essie makes cute nail polish collection gift sets, check this out!



Butter London's Blowing Raspberries is so perfect! Pair it with a teddy and box of chocolates and she will be in love.



Is your girl always on her Iphone? Iphone cases are also a cute idea. Dinner, movie, and a case! You can choose one that suits her best. This glammed out peacock case is super awesome. Buy it on amazon, here!
OR check out my previous blog post (just scroll down) where I have a whole bunch of Iphone cases to browse through, of course with links attached so you can easily find the exact one in one swift movement ;D



If it get's super cold around this time where you live, your lady may really been in need of a good blanket. Find something super soft and warm for her to relax in, and maybe even throw in some foot cream and fuzzy socks to suggest serious relaxation time! No girl can resist, and maybe even throw in a complimentary foot rub ;)








FOR HIM:




A watch! Give him an accessory to snazz up his outfits. 
You don't have to go out and buy a 200 dollar watch if you don't want to, this watch is $51.40 on amazon and still looks awesome! 


Skeleton watches are really unique, you can see all the mechanics inside and your man is sure to find these super cool looking! Check this one out




Hair and Body wash combo. I got this exact product for my boyfriend for Christmas, the line comes with a bunch of different scents--this is "Elixir White". It has a tea-like smell mixed with some citrus, more of a clean polished smell, compared to those overpowering body washes you find in the drugstore that every other guy owns. Plus, he doesn't have to worry about buying stuff to clean his locks with if he has this, just soap up his scalp and body with the same product, super fast and easy. 

Elixir Black is a stronger masculine scent, with notes of amber musk. Dark and sexy! Like a high end Axe for a MAN, not a boy :)





Otterbox Iphone case. These are durable, and great for your man's phone! It's simple and affordable.



Cologne! This one from Kenneth Cole is sold at a cheaper price on Amazon. I seriously considered this one for my boyfriend for Christmas this year. It smells awesome. It's a fresh and fruity blend of sweet spice and woods. 



Mont Blanc Legend is the Cologne that I decided on for my man. It has a very sexy smell that lingers. 



Is he into art? reading? video games? Pick up some essentials! Scope out your local book or game store for something interesting! For the artsy guy, maybe some new canvases so he can take the time out of his busy life and actually create something. By giving him the material it gives him the initiative to do something he has been wanting to do for a while but just hasn't found the time. Get into his head and be thoughtful :) 

This headset is a great idea for the video game lover, so he can tune the world out for a bit and get involved in his game, heck it might already be on the list of things he's been meaning to buy anyway.





 Grab a two pack of 18 in by 24 in canvases for $21.74 here.



I hope this post was helpful, and if you still are clueless and need some help finding something online to get for somebody you love, do not hesitate to contact me for some ideas and links ;D
