Valentine’s Day Gift Guide for Him
T-Minus 12 days until Valentine’s Day. I am following up my gift guide for her with a new guide just for the special men in your life. If you have a guy as awesome as my hunk of a husband, then this guide is for you!
Our first Valentine’s Day, Neil surprised me with 20 red heart balloons and a huge bouquet of roses along with other fun gifts. Now, years later and a zoo full of kids, he feels it’s a holiday made up to buy expensive marked up roses and chocolate. The restaurants we frequent will add a new Valentine’s menu of the same items and charge three times the price because why….oh it’s Valentine’s Day. I get it, Neil. I understand where you are coming from. However, sometimes you have to just pony up for the sake of love. Ha ha! I love Valentine’s Day! Sure, do I think you should celebrate the love you have with your significant other every day? Yes. I just think it’s great to take the time out and pause to show that special person how much they mean to you. You don’t need gifts, or fancy dinners. One year, I made Neil a booklet of handwritten coupons for him to cash in. Needless to say, I will probably never do that again, and if I do, he will know they are worthless because I don’t let him cash them in! Well, sometimes. Although, he seems to do it when I am annoyed with him on purpose. Oh, you want a back rub? Sure get to that yourself, hun. That coupon is expired….
I am poking fun at Neil, but I will also add that he is the most loyal person you will meet. He works so incredibly hard to provide for the kids and me. He took care of me for months when I was not able to care for myself, and although he’s very stubborn and a huge know-it-all, he will drop everything to be there for me if I need him. How many husband’s do you know that would totally support your crazy wife’s idea to start a fashion blog, research and buy a camera and then learn to be the photographer behind all those pictures? I am so lucky to have him in my life. Anyhoo….. Some of these items on my gift guide list I have purchased for my husband over the years and he thought they were awesome. I hope my guide gives you some ideas for the perfect V-day gift, because you just can’t go wrong with a chambong. Am I right or am I right? Check out the list below and let me know your favorite item!
.1. SugarFina The Vice Collection 8-Piece Candy Bento Box Why can’t you get a man candy? Love SugarFina
3. La Mer “The Eye Concentrate” A great eye cream for dark circles, eye puffiness and it has a nice seaweed scent perfect for men
4. Fitbit Ionic Watch LOVE!
5. Ugg Scuff Slipper So cozy!
6. SugarFina “Vodka is Always a Good Idea Candy Bento Box”
7. Chambong Set of 2 Curved Champagne Glasses In my cart as I type!

9. The Art of Shaving Morris Park Razor & Travel Kit
10. Corkcicle Whiskey Wedge We have this!
11. ‘Letters to My Love – A Paper Time Capsule’ Book What a sweet idea! Maybe better than my makeshift coupon book!
12. Tom Ford Private Blend Tobacco Vanille Eau de Parfum
What a fun idea for a monthly subscription for men! Great price too!
14. S’well The Wood Collection – Teakwood’ Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle How fun to use at the gym!
15. Man Crate Pit Master Crate Bought this for Neil last year and he LOVED it! You can choose between so many different options. It ships in a crate they have to pry open and can even be wrapped in duct tape as well. Very very cool!
I hope everyone has an awesome Valentine’s Day full of love and happiness! If you missed the Gift Guide For Her, click here.

SAVE AND SHARE THIS RECIPE! This festive #holidayappetizers is soooooo easy to make and so cute too! Take your Holiday party to the next level with this simple and fun brie recipe!
•store bought frozen roll dough (thaw and let rise for 3 hours)
•8 oz of brie
•1/2 stick of melted butter
•1 tsp minced garlic
•1 tbsp Italian seasoning
•fresh rosemary sprigs
•fresh cranberries
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. On a piece to parchment paper and a cookie sheet, set your brie in the middle. Place the roll dough balls around your brie. Slather the rolls and Brie in the melted butter (mixed with the minced garlic). Sprinkle seasoning on top and bake for approx. 20 min. Add rose mark and cranberries as garnish once out to the oven. This is such a crowd pleaser and quick to make. We’ve also used fresh dough made by my hubby (he’s the bread baker 🤣) and that works amazing too! Let me know how you like it! Enjoy! #recipereel #holidayrecipes
You guys….it actually rained here today! And it’s cold! I LOVE THIS TIME OF YEAR. It doesn’t exasperate my #potssyndrome 🙌🏻 Today, all 4 kids were home from school and we all played Fortnite together with our neighbors. I love days like today. I didn’t run errands, I didn’t clean anything. It’s been marvelous! Tomorrow will be back to business with family photo session editing, brand jobs and getting my ballet school ready for next months shows. But today, today, I did nothing. 🤣 #mondaymood
SAVE AND SHARE THIS RECIPE! This one’s a MUST TRY! I love pumpkin, I love puff pastry and I love me some cheese!
•one package store bought puff pastry
•mini brie
•pumpkin butter
•egg for egg wash
•cooking twine
•cinnamon sticks
Preheat oven to 375. These will bake for approximately 20-25 minutes. Cut #puffpastry into 10 equal squares, scoop a teaspoon of pumpkin butter on the puff pastry and add a mini brie on top. Close up the dough and use cooking twine to secure it. I tie it around 3-4 times. Brush egg wash over them and bake them for 20-25 min. Use cinnamon sticks for a stem! I have also used cream cheese and goat cheese instead of the Brie! Enjoy! #holidayappetizers #recipereel
#ad #WalmartPartner I’m getting my home ready this Fall for all my overnight Thanksgiving guests with @walmart 🙌🏻 Through this holiday season, I want to make my guests feel at home and as comfy as possible.

Plus, I use @snuggle_bear Blue Sparkle Fabric Softener on my linens to give it that added touch! It’s formulated for longer lasting freshness* #Walmart is my Holiday go-to this season! #IYWYK

#happyhalloween from #freddiemercury and #edwardscissorhands Nicky’s chest hair is my favorite part. 🤣 #halloween2024

SAVE AND SHARE THIS RECIPE! Super easy and oh soooo good! These #pumpkinpie granola bites store perfectly in the fridge for an easy snack or treat! My kids LOVE them!

SO happy it’s not 100 degrees this week and we’re actually having cooler mornings. It’s Finally Fall! #sweaterweather
Added #Maui to the wall…… can’t wait to add to the collection next trip 🙌🏻🤣
Had to share another landscape photo from our #maui trip. But I mean…..can you blame me?!? Love, love, LOVED our time spent there. #mauihawaii
SWIPE LEFT FOR A LAUGH I thought this deserved a permanent spot on my feed as proof I got @theeneil to do a couples massage while in #Maui complete with an outdoor soaking tub, shower and outdoor Hale for our massage. We went straight from Hawaii to Disneyland and when we got home from our 2 days at Disney and felt like we were 80, Neil asked if we could go get another couples massage. 🤣
Counting down until our next #Hawaii vacation. Last year was our first time visiting (we took the family to Oahu) and we loved it so much, @theeneil and I took a trip by ourselves to #Maui 🌊 Both islands have a completely different vibe but one thing’s for sure, they are both so beautiful. I took this photo of #blacksandbeach at Waiʻānapanapa State Park. We rented a bronco and drove the entire island. It was such a wonderful trip and we’re already trying to make plans for another vacay (still debating on whether to bring the kids or not 🤣).
We flew home last night, spent the night in our own bed and now we are currently driving to Disney with the kids. I’m going to need another vacation after this vacation. 🙈 Really loved our time in #Maui Already planning our next trip… 🤣
@theeneil says he took a @graymalin photo 🤣… how’d he do Gray? So many pretty things to take pictures of here…. #maui
#ad On my daily Target run, I grabbed some of my favorite @Ghirardelli Mint Cookie Milk Chocolate Squares! 🙌🏻 These rich milk chocolate squares are filled with mint and crunchy chocolate cookie bits. And did I mention they’re available all year long, not just during Holiday season. We LOVE all things #Ghirardelli and these are no exception. They make the best treat after a day of mom life! So pick up a bag or two @target
Love when my closet is organized. Does anyone else like to clean their house before leaving for a trip? I hate coming home to a mess, so I clean beforehand! #closetorganization #blueandwhiteforever
Sharing more of my Favorite @julievos jewelry 🙌🏻 The majority of these pieces are from the “Sanibel” collection! I love timeless, classic gold jewelry and @julievos is no exception! They pair well with just about anything and polish off a white button down perfectly! Do yourself a favor and snag a few baubles of your own. #julievos

I’m loving #11 and #15! We don’t really do gifts on V-day, just because, but I do always get my hubs a card. I love giving cards and feel that they are really thoughtful! I’m for sure saving this for future reference for guy’s gifts too!
xoxo, Natalie
