With Valentine´s Day around the corner sweets are found at each and every supermarket so I went along with it and created a cute and sweet candy board for Valentine´s Day or Galentine´s Day.

I love making holiday inspired boards and table scapes to this was right up my alley and although I can not eat most of it cause of my gestational diabetes I enjoyed it very much to make. 

To make it Valentine´s Day apporopriate I added as much pink and red candy as I could possible find (not an easy task in Germany I might add). 

This board would make such a great spread for colleagues, a cute board for a Galentine´s Day party or just a sweet treat for yourself. 

When I make a candy board I always start with the cute little bowl where I put small items like M&M´s, little chocolates or things like that. 

After that I like to put all kinds of cookies and chocolate bars on the board to get some straight lines and after that I fill all the wholes up with soft candy like marshmallows or gummy bears. One things I also always love to add is something salty like popcorn or pretzels. 

I used a wooden board I have had for many hours but you could take any you like. It just has to fit the amount of your products. 

The cardigan I am wearing here is from SheIn. They have such a great variety of cute and affordable cardigans for every kind of holiday.

Ideas for your Toddler´s Valentine´s Day Basket – Age 2…

….

Making little holiday themed bags for Emilia has really gotten one of my favorite things. Whether it is for Easter, Halloween or even for the upcoming Valentine´s Day I enjoy finding cute theme matching pieces for her basket so much.

What to put into a Valentine´s Day Basket for your Toddler

I always try to mix it up the best I can with lots of different things. Now that she is older and can interact with more things it got a lot easier for me to find cute stuff for Emilia´s Valentine´s Day basket.

What I got for her basket this year is a cute purple hoodie from H&M and a yellow glitter handbag as well. Since she loves dancing and her Tony Box I also put a new Tony into her basket and some other little things like a bracelet, hair clips, hair ties and a Minnie Mouse hair brush. I added a fruit pouch as well as some bubbles to blow. 

In my opinion it is a nice mixutre of different things and she will probably enjoy it a lot. Another thing I always try to add is a themed book and also ordered one but I simply forgot to add it.

The cute basket is from etsy – you can shop it here. It come all the way from Morocco but arrived within a week so that was pretty fast.

Not everybody wants to dress up all glitz and glam for Valentine´s Day so how about look cozy and comfy but still fit the theme. 

I went with this warm and comfortable look cause it has been an unexpected cold Winters day with icy winds but nevertheless I loved how the green fit with the blush pink. A great color combination which is truly neglected. The heart shaped print is just adorable and amazing for Valentine´s Day if you are not in the market for red or pink.

The cardigan is from SheIn and super affordable. I went with a size medium and it fits great over the bump as well as without. Since the gorgeous green will fit perfectly into Spring time so you can easily wear it the next 6 weeks.

Everyone is busy prepping for Christmas this week and not only the homes but also ourselves. I love to really dress up for Christmas. All sequins and bows cause why not?! The year is boring enough already so let´s get dolled up on a few days at least.

I wanted to share three hair styles with you today you can easily prepare and wear for the upcoming Christmas festivities.

Pearly Headband and Low Bun

This is probably the easiest and quickest of all three hairstyles I always find myself to long for when I have washed my hair and don´t want to curl or straighten it. All I am doing is to comb my hair and part it in the middle. Then I make a low bun and spray down any hair that´s left somewhere and then I add my headband and cute matching earrings. This is only taking about 5 minutes.

Clip-in hair bow

If you want to add some color and playfullness to your look I would recommend adding a big bow to your hair. If you want to get as much volume as possible I would say curl your hair first like I did and then comb it over your head after letting the curls cool down. This will give you a ton of volume. Now tease the top of your hair and fixate it with volume spray. I use the Syoss Volume Spray that also doubles as a hairspray. Then gather some strands and clip in the bow in the middle of the back of your head. This might need a buch of attempts if you want it to look perfect but it gets better quickly the more often you try.

Sparkly Rhinestone Hair Clip

If your hair is already curled (or however you like it) I would just touch it up with some root spray or volume spray and tease the hair on the back of your head a little. After that choose a side for a side part. I always use the same side cause I think it is the most flattering to part it to the right. Then I refresh my curls and add the sparkliest rhinestone clips I can find. Mine are super old and from Zara but I don´t use them very often so I love to re-use them. Such a classic look inspired by the old and golden era of Hollywood.
