If you’re like me, Valentines Day may have crept up on you. While I was proactive about dinner reservations (Shout out to The Melting Pot), I have not been proactive about my gift giving. Luckily we live in the era of online shopping and there is still plenty of time to snag a little something for your hunny yourself! I’ve compiled a list of “traveler” inspired gifts but this list is perfect for anyone in your life! Ps: I’ve included a few gentleman friendly gifts as well! 😉

1.Pajama set: $16.99 Who doesn’t love a pajama set? Better yet, who doesn’t love a “themed pajama set”? There are so many styles and brands available that I could write an entire post on PJ sets! Since we are 4 sleeps away from Valentines Day, I am sharing a few you’ll have no trouble getting delivered on time! The set above comes in a variety of patterns from Amazon and all are prime eligible!

Amazon: $16.99 click here
Nordstrom: $65 click here

2. Orvis Engraved Brass Luggage Tags $49
Who knew luggage tags could be so sleek? My dad was a man who was constantly on the go and a regular on Capitol Hill. He was also a professed lover of all things Orvis and as a result I too am a sucker for Orvis merchandise.

3. AirPods Pro: Noise Cancelling head phones $249
I finally jumped on the AirPods fan train this past Christmas. To be honest, I never had an interest in AirPods until I saw a new model release that also incorporated noise cancelling technology. This new model also has a different design shape which prevents slippage of headphones out of your ear.

Let me tell you, I was SHOCKED at how well these worked on an airplane. I honestly never realized how loud an airplane was (Shame on me and my audiology degree), until I took one of my AirPods out mid-flight. It was staggering how loud the ambient noise was after using noise cancelling headphones for a few hours.

For me personally, I like the AirPods Pro style because they are compact, easy to travel with an do not mess my hair up. However, if Apple products aren’t your cup of tea, I know Sony, Bose and other brands make great alternatives.

Fun fact: the hearing aid manufacturer I work for can make custom sleeves/covers for traditional Apple head phones and first generation AirPods. Say sayonara to your headphones ever falling out of your ears again!

4. Travel Jewelry Keeper: $22.95
It’s 2020, time to stop throwing your jewelry in a ziplock baggy! Let me give a shout out to Ellis James Designs. I stumbled upon this brand a few months ago and I’ve been hooked ever since! Their compact, soft padded casing allows you to keep your jewelry protected while on the go! Available directly from their website and also available on Amazon!

5. Multi Compartment Makeup Bag: $25.95
Another winner from Ellis James Designs. The addition of this bag into my daily routine allowed me to consolidate nearly all of my beauty and makeup products into one bag. Not only has this saved space while traveling but it has also allowed me to declutter at home. With spring right around the corner, this bag is a grate way to get a jump start on spring cleaning! Avilable directly from Ellis James Designs and also on Amazon.

6. Quartz Facial Roller: $28
My girlfriends got me a quartz roller last year and I have been hooked ever since! Quartz rollers support lymphatic drainage to reduce the appearance of puffiness, and wrinkles.

Pro Tip: leave in freezer for a cooling sensation that is sure to wake you up in the morning while also leaving your skin feeling refreshed!

Quartz rollers come in all price points. Below are a few different brands depending on your favorite places to shop!

Sephora: $60.00 click here
Ulta: $28.00 click here

7. Silk Pillow Case: $85
We all deserve to sleep like a queen (or king). Looking for a more luxurious sleep? Look no further!

Studies have proven silk pillowcases can improve skin and hair hydration, prevent fine lines and wrinkles, and result in smoother, frizz-free hair every morning!

After doing my homework (Thanks Google), Silk pillow cases come in a variety of price points ranging anywhere from $20 to over $100. With a silk pillow case, you get what you pay for. I have included links below to a few vendors who each received rave reviews.

Amazon: $9.99 click here (Most budget friendly)
Amazon: $17.99 click here (Voted best travel silk pillow Case by Good House Keeping)

8. Portable Charger: $16.99
Travelers dread nothing more than being on the go and not having the ability to charge their phone or other electronics. The compact size makes this a perfect solution for any valentine. Here are two other options available from Amazon:
Amazon: $12.99 click here
Amazon: $49.99 click here

9. Breathable, moveable work pants: $128
The men in your life will thank you! These pants aren’t called “ABC” (anti-ball crushing) for nothing! I cannot begin to describe the rave reviews I have heard from friends who swear by these pants. They have the feel of an athletic pant but the look of office-wear.

10. Amazon Kindle or other electronic book: $94.99 (8GB) $119.99 (32GB)
I have found this to be a great gift regardless of lifestyle.
Compact and convenient, this model is the thinnest, lightest Kindle Paperwhite yet. It is also waterproof which is an especially nice feature when on vacation!

11. Reusable Makeup Pads: $22
I recently was introduced to reusable makeup pads and they are honestly a game changer! These pads are eco-friendly, vegan friendly, antimicrobial, machine-washable and each pad can be used up to 200 times!

12. Le Creuset Enameled Mini Heart Stoneware cocotte, 8 Ounce: $29.74
Who said luxurious cookware had to be expensive? The heart shape is very fitting for Valentines Day but could absolutely be a staple piece in your kitchen. I know after a week of traveling, nothing sounds better than a home cooked meal!

13. Wireless Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker: $32.99
The perfect gift for the man or woman who loves to sing in the shower!
This speaker is great for the shower but can also be submerged up to 3 feet of water making it a pool-time companion as well.

In addition to being compatible with all bluetooth enabled devices, it can also function as an FM radio.

14. Fire TV Stick: $39.99
I absolutely love my Fire TV Stick! In fact I have 2 of them! These make an excellent gift for anyone and the best part of all? The reasonable price point! In the age of streaming services, the Fire TV Stick will allow you access to all of those services!

If you have a traveler in your life, consider gifting a Fire TV Stick for them to travel with! Many hotels now have TVs with USB ports; allowing your traveler to have access to their favorite shows even while on the go!

Thats a wrap! I hope you all have a wonderful Valentines Day week filled with love and desserts!

xoxo
