VALENTINE’S DAY GIFT GUIDE

My favorite holiday of the year is here… and that’s Valentine’s Day!

Ah, tis the season of love… and my favorite holiday of all time, VALENTINE’S DAY. In Aya’s world, Valentine’s Day doesn’t mean you have to have a boo thang. I absolutely despise when miserable people label this beautiful day as “Single Awareness Day,” because although the prime existence of this holiday is to honor your soul mate, it plain and simple is about LOVE. This is a time you should also celebrate your parents, siblings, and friends and the love you have for them, too. I always believed in giving fun-loving goodies to all of the ones you love, whether it be a treat bag of your favorite holiday-themed candies or a little sentimental token like a candle or a book of love quotes.

{lucky for me, I have the best mom in the world who buys me fab vday goodies every year}
