Adidas Samba Sneakers

I know, I know. Adidas Sambas are everywhere, but the hype is real. Supermodels like Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner can’t get enough of the practical and chic footwear, and this swoon-worthy color combo makes them even more desirable.

The Bouqs Co. 24 Mixed Roses With Vase

The only thing more romantic than a dozen roses is two! This mixed Bouqs floral arrangement is lively and fun, perfect for a lover or friend. The chic vase is included, offering a reusable gift that can be repurposed for years to come.

LoveShackFancy Forever in Love Eau de Parfum

This LoveShackFancy fragrance is so good, I refuse to gatekeep it. The bottle transports you into a rom com, while notes of green pear, gardenia, and cedarwood envelop the sense in a sweet and flirty aroma. It is called Forever in Love, after all.

Voluspa Santal Vanille Candle

Voluspa Santal Vanille Candle serves as proof that you don’t have to spend much to make an impression. The coconut-wax blend and natural wick offer a clean burn, and the decorative white jar elevates any space. Best of all, it’s perfect for curating an intimate atmosphere.

KitchenAid Artisan Series 5-Quart Stand Mixer

While a diamond ring may take the cake, this KitchenAid Artisan Stand Mixer will help make it. Look forward to 10 speeds, a tilt-head design, four attachments, and a soft lavender hue. Trust me when I say this number-one best seller will turn any kitchen into a baker’s dream.

Taylor Swift Valentine’s Day Sweatshirt

Cue Lover by Taylor Swift. This V-Day sweatshirt isn’t only super comfortable, but it’ll make any Swiftie’s heart sing (a.k.a., mine). Your Etsy purchase supports a small business owner and is sure to become a staple in this chilly winter weather. Choose from a wide range of sizes and 10 colors.
