There’s nothing I reach for more in the colder months than a really good lounge set. I want pieces that feel as comfortable as pajamas but still look polished enough for school drop-off, a coffee run, or answering the door without a second thought. Lately brands have gotten so good at this — soft fabrics, flattering cuts, and colors that feel a little more elevated than your ratty college sweats.
The other night at a girls' dinner, we were talking about skincare (as one does in their late 30s/early 40s), and I realized that my friends all have incredible glowing skin, so I asked them to share their number one holy grail skincare products. Like the one thing that they couldn't ever give up. The list is great, and I actually use a lot of these products myself too!
If you're like me, you get excited about a holiday where all things pink, girly, and sugary are involved. While we're keeping things pretty low key around here for Valentine's Day, we never pass up a fun dessert. We even got together with my sister this weekend for a cousins cookie decorating party and I got to whip out the tried-and-true Valentine's Day cookie recipe I share below!
Funny story: Anel saw the collage I was making for this post and tore it to shreds with quotes like "no adult male is going to wear heart print boxers" and "I don't think men really want a needlepoint belt" (agree to disagree) so I re-jiggered it with some input from an actual man (what a concept!)
So with not a whiskey stone or beard trimmer in sight, please enjoy this husband-approved list of Valentine's Day gifts for the man in your life.
