Valentine’s Day Gift Guide 2018

  Gorgeous Blooms by Heinau

It’s almost here…VALENTINE’S DAY!

Some hate it, some love it, and I am one who LOVES it because it’s all about love. I love that you can make this day special whether you’re single or taken, or whether you plan to stay in or go out…do you!

I’ve learned my lesson over the years that going out on Valentine’s Day can just be such a shit show. The lines, waiting, and rushing to get you in and out of a restaurant is stressful. The past couple of years, Jeff and I have made dinner together at home and then went to see the 50 Shades movies. Have you guys seen them? Tell me your thoughts in the comments if you have! 

While we’re chatting Valentine’s Day, have you gotten the perfect gift for your significant other. friend, family etc. yet? No? Then you’re in the right place if you’re looking for some non-basic ideas for yourself, your man, your girlfriends, and then some splurge worthy items.

MORE GIFT IDEAS

+ My favorite gift that I have received for Valentine’s Day so far are the long lasting box of roses that I received from Blooms by Heinau. Inspired by nature, travel, and design styles from around the world, Heidi Intriago is the creative mind behind Blooms by Heinau. “I have vivid memories of European spring and summer seasons, when everything blooms with color,” she says about being part of this unique floral design business. If you’re looking for an amazing & personal gift for yourself or for a girlfriend, mom, or sister, you have to check these boxes out. I don’t know what’s better than having REAL roses displayed for a whole year. 

+ I love giving gifts that someone wouldn’t normally purchase for themselves. This could include a car detail service, a massage, a facial, pedicure, the gift of unlimited movies at any theater via Movie Pass (Jeff loves this and has also given it as a gift), and/or a house cleaning service. 

What are you going to do on Valentine’s Day this year?

xo, Lynn

a few ways that getting dressed/fashion is spiritu a few ways that getting dressed/fashion is spiritual:

1. experimenting with what you wear can help you see yourself in a different way & provokes inspiration.
2. Getting dressed in the morning is a way to have fun by expressing your beautiful soul for everyone to see. 
3. when you feel confident in what you’re wearing, you FEEL good.

my style evolution: I used to wear a lot of black & shunned expressing my femininity with the clothes that I wore because I was following trends. NO MORE. now: give me all the feminine LEWKS and colors 🌈

During the first few months of my Z’s life, my body & soul felt burnt out. looking back, it was hard (and still is!) to prioritize just taking a few deep breaths each day. totally not trying to sound dramatic like so many Oprah IG captions 🤣 but it’s the truth.

during a meditation session recently, my intuition called out and invited me to reconnect with my feminine side. I realized I had abandoned much of this ‘side’. this is where the journey of activating my divine feminine energy began for me.  I’ll be sharing bits of my re-discovery here in hopes it will help you overcome the same and step in to your wholeness. 🤍

by wholeness, I mean not DOING IT ALL. being intentional & redefining the feminine experience. 

some of the words I have reclaimed include…

emotional, ease, wild, & healing 

do you have words to describe your feminine energy?

reflecting back on the past year has put into perspective how critical taking the leap and moving to a new place has been for my personal growth and development, and if you’re thinking about moving, this is your sign to do it!

the change of environment has been SO beyond magical for many reasons…it’s taken me out of my comfort zone, given so many new and exciting experiences, and expanded social connections. 

🤍10/10 recommend, even when you’re super pregnant 😜

Even with other clean products, my scalp was not happy and it’s such a relief to find a product that WORKS that isn’t medicated or full of crap ingredients. so excited to share with y’all as I have always shared my scalp/hair journey and finally feel like my scalp is THRIVING 💖

this look is one of my faves as it doesn’t take much time and it shows off my natural hair texture.
