Treat Yourself to 1-3 of Your Favorite Things This Valentine’s Day

Whether you’re single, taken, or taken-ish, you deserve to celebrate yourself, too.

This was my first time being single on Valentine’s Day for about a decade, so I decided to treat myself to three things that I enjoy: candles, wine, and flowers. Here is what I bought:

  1. Byredo – Fleur Fantôme Candle
Best when lit on a rainy day with a book in-hand.

2. McBride Sisters Collection – Black Girl Magic 2019 California Rosé

Cheers to supporting black businesses this month (and every month)!

3. Fleurs de Paris – Eternal Roses

No one has ever bought me flowers, so I decided to buy my own roses this year.

I recommend setting a personal budget if you plan on spending any cash on yourself for your 1-3 items. Also, don’t be afraid to get a bit more creative when it comes to treating yourself, either. You don’t have to treat yourself to just store-bought items. You can go on a small trip, have a spa day, visit friends or family, cook your favorite meal, et cetera. Whatever you decide, have fun with it.

Care for yourself like you would for someone else you love.
