Valentines: West Elm Gift Guide For Her

I have jumped into a Valentine’s worm hole and have emerged with a vast amount of heart, love and unique ideas to celebrate this holiday. So please be prepared for the bombardment of Valentine’s Day posts that will be flooding Cool Gifting. I hope you are as excited as I am :) I am celebrating my 13th Valentine’s Day. That is bananas! Time just flies by if you’re not paying attention.

The first find I would like to share with you is West Elm’s Valentines Gift Guide For Her. I am a huge fan of West Elm’s style and they have some adorable gift ideas like the heart Tic Tac Toe. How cute are those chubby hearts?!

Heart Tic Tac Toe

West Elm’s take on this classic pastime has a wooden box with a lid that doubles as a playing board. Its iron game pieces are shaped like x’s and hearts (instead of o’s).

Top Games for Board Game Aficionados

You are looking for a gift for a friend who loves to play board games, the geeky kind, but are at a loss for what to get them? Do not fret! Here is a list of the top co-operative Board Games. That means all the players work together to win. Yay! Team work!

Escape: The Curse of The Temple

Escape: The Curse of the Temple is a cooperative game in which players must escape from a temple which is cursed before the temple collapses and kills one or more explorers, thereby causing everyone to lose. Escape is played in real-time, with all players rolling dice and taking actions simultaneously as they play along to a soundtrack.

Similar Finds: Gone Girl Collar Dress

I recently read the book Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. If you haven’t read it, I totally recommend that you do. It is an easy page turner that will keep you hooked to the very end. If you are not a fan of reading, you can check out the movie starring Ben Affleck, Rosamund Pike, Neil Patrick Harris, and Tyler Perry. It stays pretty close to the book and does a great job of portraying the characters and atmosphere. The movie is directed by David Fincher who also directed the TV show House of Cards, The Social Network, and Fight Club. *Side note: I Cannot wait for the third season of House of Cards to air this February! Yay!*

As I was saying, I read the book and was so pumped that I immediately watched the movie. In last scene the main character wears a gorgeous collared dress. It was a good idea to watch the movie because this dress became my new obsession. I searched for the Alice + Olivia Courtnee Combo Cuff Dress but it was sold out everywhere. However, instead of fretting (or going the ebay route) I decided to find similar dresses; and I am happy with my results.

Alice + Olivia Courtnee Combo Cuff Dress

This is the actual dress used in the movie. My favorite part is the back of the dress. Contrast cuffs and a fold-over collar lend a polished look to a fitted alice + olivia dress. The exposed zip cuts a clean line down the layered back. Long sleeves.

Adorable TONYMOLY Personal Care Products

I have to say that I do, at first glance, judge books by their cover. Sometimes awful book covers keep me from reading great books until they are personally recommended by a trusted source. On the other spectrum I have read some real turds because they had amazing books covers; but I’m not talking about books today. I’m talking about the cutest personal care products I have ever seen: TONYMOLY. I started seeing some ridiculously adorable lip glosses in the shape of a bunny when browsing Urban Outfitters; but today I spotted a fat Panda in the shape of an egg. What could that kawaii little chubby shape be holding? What is a Panda’s dream magic cream? Who cares! I’m buying that fat panda and the bunnies – of course I’m getting the bunnies.

TONYMOLY Panda’s Dream Magic Cream

ONYMOLY Panda’s Dream Magic Cream hydrates and brightens skin for a fresh, radiant glow. Apply to your skin as the last step in your skincare routine.

Gifts For Your Flexible Yoga Friend

Whether you are looking to buy a gift for someone who does yoga everyday, multiple times a day, and doesn’t care about materialistic things; or for someone who tends to go to yoga class right before their shopping sprees – you can’t go wrong with a yoga mat. It doesn’t matter what brand of yoga mat you own, if you use it everyday you will need to replace it eventually. Daily use wears the little grooves designed to stick to your feet, making the surface slippery when you sweat. So take a look at these beautiful yoga mats I found at Urban Outfitters and other colorful stores and see if any of them catch your eye.

Orla Kiely For Target

The fancy designer Orla Kiely teamed up with Target to produce a line of Yoga Mats, Bags, Water Bottles and other goodies. Being an Orla Kiely fan, I of course swooned over every item.
