Dear Cupid (Or What Valentine's Day Gifts We'd Like to See!)


Dear Cupid,

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and Princess and I have been such good girls lately that we were hoping that you could help us with what our hearts are coveting...

Maybe you can put that arrow of yours to good use...and shoot it at the people we love (who might buy us pretty things for Valentine's Day), with this list attached, of course?

Since we're girls on a budget, we don't want our sweeties breaking the bank. So, these goodies are wallet friendly!



Nothing says "aphrodisiac" more than a sweet smell...so we are coveting this delicious perfume from Sarah Jessica Parker. It smells like strawberries, honeysuckle, mandarin, gardenia, rum and sandalwood...and it is AMAZING! $35.00 is a small price to pay to smell so darn good! You can find this at a number of retailers, but we found it at Kohl's.









It isn't a Valentine's Day without some gorgeous red roses. But, these roses in particular are what caught our attention! These red roses are not only beautiful, they are everlasting. These rose earrings are stylish, timeless and sexy! Cupid, please tell our sweeties to run to Bauble Bar and get these earrings...because at $38 they certainly won't be around for long!










There is nothing like coming home to a house filled with love...and that is why we absolutely adore this adorable keychain. If we were to see this on our key ring, we'd feel warm and fuzzy all over each day, every day! Nothing says affection like giving us something we will use all the time that will keep reminding us of how sweet you are. We found this one at ebay for $12.99...now THAT'S love!









This little travel bag is perfect for Valentine's Day...it's adorned with lovebirds! Besides, there are few things as romantic as a weekend away with your significant other. This pretty, glittery travel bag is the perfect gift...because it hints at lots of fun trips to come...and lots of great memories to make together! You can find it at Francesca's Collection for $16.00.









Lace is the fabric of love--it's sweet, dainty and pretty. Which is why this beautiful scarf from Banana Republic is a must have! This Valentine's Day gift would be the perfect addition to our outfits for Valentine's Day dinner...and maybe we could find other fun uses for it (wink, wink!). It's a great wardrobe addition at $59.50...a timeless staple!








We love this bag. Which means we would love you even more than we already do if you bought us this bag. It is so cute...and the fringe screams "fun night with my love out on the town, but still sophisticated enough to take to work!" This adorable bag from Francesca's Collection is an absolute steal at $48.00. (Which means you can buy us this bag and still get us some of the other great goodies on our list...to fill the bag with!)







This gorgeous necklace is on our must have list. It has vintage appeal with modern styling--a perfect topper for any date night outfit! It looks super expensive, so all of your friends will think that you're spoiling your girl, when really you will have gotten a steal by going to Bauble Bar and spending only $48!








And, sweetie, if you're in the mood to REALLY spoil us and splurge, this bag from Coach would look great on our shoulders. This luxurious pink leather is sweet, supple and just plain sassy. We love the shape and style of the bag--and, although it comes in numerous colors, what color is better for Valentine's Day than pink? This bag is definitely a budget buster at $398, but...can you really put a price on love?







Thanks Cupid for delivering this letter. We'll be sure to let you know which of these fabulous gifts come our way on Valentine's Day!

XOXO,












Budget & Princess
