I’m shocked that it’s already February! Time is flying, but hey, we are inching closer to warmer weather! Today, I wanted to share a Valentine’s Day roundup to get you inspired for all the gift-giving you will be doing. Valentine’s doesn’t need to be extravagant – gift something that you know the other person will love. Do they enjoy accessorizing their home? Lounging in luxurious fabrics? A fresh makeup routine? Above, I’ve linked some great ideas for you!
Let me know if I can help you shop for anything else!

I’m sure you’ve seen a lot of gift guides already this holiday season, but if you need a few more ideas, I thought I would share some of my favorite things, items I’m getting others and pieces on my wishlist. Of course, it’s so easy to order online, but don’t forget to support your local businesses! Plus, shopping in person is way more fun.
First up is the gift guide for those interior design lovers. Help them complete their space with a piece that will make them think of you!

Guys are hard to shop for! I’m sure they get bored by all the clothes, so I added a few other things that might peek their interest.
| bar tools | whiskey cocktail book | sneakers | decanter & old-fashioned glasses | socks |
| needlepoint belt | puffy vest | yeti cooler |
Lastly, I included items for your fashionable friend! In my mind, the more color and texture the better!
| matching top & shorts | woven bag | pave studs | floral dress | sherpa mules | Gucci scarf |
| sunglasses | colorful necklace | teddy headband | shearling sneakers |
I hope you have the most wonderful Christmas season filled with family, friends, good food and lots of laughter!

I just bought this tie dye sweatshirt, and I’m obsessed! Snag it while it’s still on sale.
Today, I wanted to share some of my favorite things that I purchased or received in 2020. From loungewear to skincare and home goods, and many of the products I’m sharing are on sale!
Customizable tie dye sweatshirt
The tie dye trend is here to stay, so design your own hand dyed and hand embroidered sweatshirt by Eliza! I ordered a large for an oversized look.
I go for a walk most days, and I feel like I’m getting a little extra work in when wearing these ankle and wrist weights. They come in 1 and 2 pound versions.
Y’all know how much I love headbands, and this one is no exception. I have found that these neutral colors go with almost everything. Worn here and here.
I don’t know much about skincare, but I do know that I LOVE Tula products! They are constantly coming out with new products that keep your skin clean, fresh and healthy.
These towels feel like a cloud! I don’t know what kind of towels I’ve been using all of my life, but these are a game changer. You can get free monogramming on their site now!
Statement earrings – another accessory I love, and these are on sale! I wore these for our engagement shoot.
This bag is the perfect evening bag, and it fits more than you would think! Small wallet, phone, keys, lipstick, hand sanitizer, sunglasses and the list goes on.
I live in this cozy blanket year round, and surprisingly it’s on sale! MOVE FAST.
Since high school I’ve always curled my hair with a 1.5 to 2 inch curling iron, but I’ve started using the 1 inch for a tighter longer lasting curl. I also use this as a wand.
My favorite boots ever!! I am so glad I splurged on these this fall, but lucky for you, they are on sale now.
I am super particular about my leggings, and these check all the boxes. Fitted but not too tight, they don’t sag and wear really well. These are also marked down!
A camel suede bootie is a classic shoe you will wear season after season. These look great with jeans, skirts and dresses! Worn here.
I haven’t taken this cozy set off since Henry gave it to me!

I’m highlighting a couple of small businesses today that I love. First up is The Pink Reef who designed the most fabulous turquoise earrings I’m wearing. They are super lightweight and perfect for any season. I can definitely see myself dressing them up with a cocktail dress too. Check out her site and the other beautiful earrings she has created. You may find a Christmas gift or two!
Next, I wanted to highlight this camo Parker Thatch tote that Henry gave to me for Christmas last year. It is such a useful bag – great for traveling, toting a laptop or just everyday use. It’s made of canvas too which makes it very durable! If you are looking for a great Christmas gift for a girl who loves purses, look no further than Parker Thatch!
I hope this post helped you with Christmas gifts this holiday season!
Happy Monday! xo, MS
It’s a great time of year to support your favorite local and small businesses and even more important this year as over 100,000 have closed their doors since January. Below I’ve listed a few that I love and have personally shopped with or received a gift from. Some businesses are local to Memphis and others are local to Dallas, but they all have a way to shop online or via Instagram. Join me in supporting these or ones you love this holiday season!
Almost everything on Anthropologie’s site is 30% off!! That’s huge! They have everything from loungewear and cozy sweaters to the best home furnishings and holiday decor! Many of the items I linked below come in a variety of colors, so be sure to check those out.
| cable knit set | hoodie set | v neck set: sweater & joggers | crew neck set |
| color block set | slippers | sneakers |
I’m ALL about loungewear when it cools off. Every night of this holiday week I’ve ended up in a matching loungewear set, watching a holiday movie and eating something sweet. Being cozy is a must, and you can get cozy in these sets above!
| ribbed sweater | tie dye sweater | leopard sweater |
| seamed sweater | sherpa hoodie |
Style all of these sweaters back to your go-to straight leg or skinny blue jeans. Front tuck to accentuate your waist, and throw on your go-to booties.
| puff sleeve top | metallic jeans | leopard heels | metallic heels |
| suede moto jacket | blue jeans | ankle strap heels |
This collage includes a few of my favorite things: puffy sleeves, straight leg jeans and metallic heels. These heels look great with both jeans and cocktail dresses.

I could wear a dress everyday! They require little thought when getting ready and you easily feel put together.

Need gift ideas for your girls? Mamas, friends, girlfriends? I picked out everything from home decor to beauty depending on what your best gal loves!
| headband | stemless glasses | tiger coasters | pictures 1 & 2 |
| bow heels | leather bag |
Well, you know I love a headband. They are the best accessory and add such a fun pop of color and texture. They also make a great stocking stuffer! If your girl loves to host a get together, stemless wine glasses, colorful coasters and a print on the wall are perfect.
| pajamas | round brush hairdryer | face roller | beauty set | leggings |
| silk pillow case | wrist weights | hoodie & joggers | sneakers |
My new favorite thing is this set of wrist weights! I love a power walk, and these are the perfect addition. Add these leggings and funky sneakers to complete your workout look. Because many of yall are still working from home, shop this loungewear set to make working from home a little more fun and comfy.
| floral dress | eyeshadow palette | shawl | puffer jacket | sunglasses |
| jewelry case | headband | ginger jars |
I’m obsessed with this metallic bomber. How great would this be paired with jeans and a sweater or your go-to workout gear?! You could even layer it over the floral midi dress. One day I hope my home is accessorized with a few ginger gars, and maybe your girl does too.
I hope this post filled with a few of my favorite things helps you shop for your girls this holiday season! XO, MS
