To me, Valentine’s Day is so much more than a day that’s reserved for couples and limited to a fancy dinner out (or maybe that’s just my singleness speaking ;)). I’m a big believer in spreading the love, even from afar which is why I wanted to send a few goodies across the country to my little sister in New Jersey. While life in California is wonderful, it can definitely be hard to be so far from my family so I’ll usually jump on any excuse I can find to send a little surprise in the mail to show them some love.

My first stop when picking out a few Valentine’s Day surprises for my sister was Personalization Mall – I love a good custom gift and there’s no place better for everything from jewelry to home goods, all totally personalized for your recipient. (and all done for free!) I tend to always gift Elise with some jewelry or makeup each Christmas or birthday, so I wanted to help her out with some stylish organization and picked out a monogrammed mirrored jewelry box and quilted makeup pouch for her to store all of her goodies in. As soon as I opened up the jewelry box I had major envy – it’s just so cute and the perfect size for stashing your most worn items while still being stylish enough to sit proudly on top of your dresser. Paired with a few red and pink nail polishes and lipsticks, and a pair of festive tassel earrings, she’s officially ready for all of her Valentine’s Day festivities ahead!

A busy girl on the go can never have enough totes and I picked up this striped monogrammed canvas tote that’s just the right size for a day at the office or a weekend trip to the farmer’s market. Totes always work well for gifting because you’re able to stash all of the goodies inside – think of it as the ultimate gift bag! I also picked up a few random goodies for her, from a cute notebook to a luxe coloring book and of course some Valentine’s Day sweets and also an acrylic tumbler for her go to morning iced coffee.

If you’re still in need of a few Valentine’s Day gifts (or want to pick up a little something for yourself!), Personalization Mall has the best selection – there’s seriously something for everyone! Shipping is also super fast which means there’s still plenty of time to place your orders.

Are you showing your BFF any love this Valentine’s Day?
