Valentine’s Day is here, and I’m all in on the love vibes. Truly, I love LOVE. It’s just the sweetest excuse to slow down and add a little romance to life, isn’t it? Whether it’s for your partner, dear friends, or just you, it’s the perfect time to sprinkle in something special — perhaps something red, or pink, or homemade 😉
But, let’s talk about the décor for a sec! Does anyone else feel personally attacked by the seasonal aisle this time of year? Like, why is everything so bright red and covered in glitter hearts? Cute for a second, but then … straight to storage. We want things that feel festive, sure, but also timeless—pieces we can love past February 14th.
So, I did a little hunting and rounded up some of my favorite red and pink finds. Think fun, thoughtful, and juuust the right amount of festive. Perfect for a Galentine’s get-together, a sweet gift idea, or just treating yourself because you deserve it. These are the things I’d want in my own home, wardrobe, or everyday life—without screaming “I’m only here for Valentine’s Day.”
Let’s add a little romance, but make it chic. Keep reading or click here to shop everything on our LTK. 💕
Home
Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to give your home a little romantic glow-up. Think beyond cheesy heart-shaped everything, and focus on timeless, charming pieces that still feel festive. A striped red pillow? Instantly cozy and chic—it’ll work in February and beyond. Add a few blush-toned taper candles or these cordless lamps for a soft, romantic touch on your table or mantle. And, fresh flowers (always!)—red or pink blooms in a classic vase can completely transform a space. These are the little details that make your home feel thoughtful and inviting without overdoing it.
Life
How about the everyday little luxuries? A custom embroidered napkin or coaster is adorable for hosting or gifting, and it shows you actually thought about the details. Tom Ford’s “Lost Cherry” perfume—doesn’t it just sound like it was made for Valentine’s Day? Sweet but sophisticated. While we are talking beauty– my signature lip color is the Laura Mercier Rouge Lipstick in ‘Nude Nouveau’. I love a bold red lip for certain occasions, but this is my everyday color that gets me tons of compliments! And speaking of lips, if you’re making cocktails (recipe details below), don’t forget the frothy lips stencil moment—it’s the kind of extra touch that makes people remember. These are the things that turn the ordinary into something worth celebrating.
Red and Pink, but make it Fashion
What’s Valentine’s Day without a little red or pink in your wardrobe? A cozy, romantic red sweater is perfect for any plans—dinner date or curling up on the couch. Pair it with a dainty heart necklace for just a hint of love. If you’re feeling bold, these red mule heels with the oversized bow are chef’s kiss—so fun for a Galentine’s night out, or just to feel fabulous. And, can we talk about this pink clutch (that’s now on sale)? I have it and it’s perfect for times when I want a playful yet polished look.
As featured above, I couldn’t help but fall for this adorable Valentine’s craft cocktail! 💕 I’ve been seeing it pop up all over my Pinterest feed, and if you know me, you know I’m a sucker for a cute beverage craft (and of course, a good photo moment). I was influenced … and honestly, I hope you will be too! This is your sign to start planning your Galentine’s Day party💋💗
