Your Valentine’s Day Guide

…

Happy February! Kind of crazy that it’s already February, but that just means we are one step closer to spring and nicer weather. But before the nice weather comes, we have to celebrate one of my favorite holidays- Valentine’s Day! Usually, Kurt and I have gift cards from Christmas and we always save them for a nice Valentine’s Day dinner. But this year will be a bit different. While restaurants are now open in Chicago with limited capacity, we are still aren’t comfortable dining in. So I’ve had to get creative with how we are going to celebrate this year. I thought I would share some of my ideas and also some fashion to wear and of course gift ideas!

Ways to Celebrate Valentine’s Day This Year

  • Since the holiday falls on a Sunday I actually thought it would be a cute idea to have brunch instead of the typical dinner. I was thinking of making pancakes (this mix the absolute best!) and using these cooking cutters to make them heart shaped.
  • If I don’t end up making breakfast, I want to order these heart shaped bagels. How cute are they?!?! I’m really leaning towards doing this because I think these are just so cute haha.
  • My go to every year is to usually send Kurt Georgetown Cupcakes. They are seriously the absolute best! And I love the heart shaped box they come in.
  • If you want to send flowers, I’ve used this company and this one too. I’ve always wanted to order flowers from here because they look so pretty! And these flowers last over a year. They are on the pricier side, but they really do last. I bought Kurt this small one for our anniversary almost three years ago and they still look great.
  • We can’t forget about our furry friends either! Addie loves these treats and I love how cute and festive they are for every holiday!
  • And you can always order a heart shaped pizza! We do this every year too depending on when the holiday falls. Although this year, Kurt told me we were going to order a regular pizza and I could cut it myself into a heart because they charge you so much more and you get way less. I just had to laugh at him haha. He has a point, but it’s Valentine’s Day and I need a heart shaped pizza!

What to Wear

I am leaning towards comfort this year and I ordered myself these pj’s to wear for our brunch on the holiday. So many other cute options though!

Pink Heart PJ Set | Red Socks | Red Heart Long Sleeve PJ Set | Underwear | Heart Short PJ Set | Pink Socks | Pink Heart Hoodie | Pink Heart Pants | Eye Mask | Pink Lounge Set | Pink Slippers | Red Heart PJ Set

If you are wanting to get a little more dressed up for dinner or even brunch, here are some cute options to wear!

Meet Amanda

Hi- my name is Amanda Faber. My husband and I moved in 2021 into our first home where we are slowly decorating and renovating our 1927 colonial home. My style is a mix between coastal, traditional, modern and grandmillenial. You can expect to find all the best blue and white finds, mixed in with lots of rattan accents. I am also a new mama to my daughter Sloane who was born in 2021! I love to share home décor finds, preppy fashion and all the peonies & hydrangeas from my garden. Welcome to Cashmere & Jeans!

I have a love/hate with family photos. It always s I have a love/hate with family photos. It always sounds like a great idea when you book them, but they always end up being way more work than you think.  Work always ends up being crazy that day, something always goes wrong with someone’s outfit (this year it was Sloane’s adorable pink shoes that I swear I just bought her. They were too tight 🤨- so she threw on her rain boots). The weather is never quite what you expected when you planned everyone’s outfits. I swear I threw my dress on and had 2 minutes to spare before we were out the door.  The stress and planning that entails for 15 minutes of photos is crazy lol. And then you get them back and they perfectly capture your family 💙  I’m grateful we do these every year even if the process is a little crazy #fallfamilyphotos @tessamerrillphotography

The perks of my dad being skinny- I can steal all The perks of my dad being skinny- I can steal all of his clothes 😀 He wore this @jcrew pink linen shirt to my baby shower and wore it proudly all day 🩷 He was so excited. After that when he would wear it I would remember he wore it to my shower. It represented all the hard times we went through to get Sloane here and it always took me back to that special day. So now I get to wear it proudly 🩷
There is no more special bond than a daughter and There is no more special bond than a daughter and her father and I have to say I was blessed with one of the best 8/18/46-4/20/25 🩷 My dad always told me ‘if you look good, you feel good’ and that’s when my love of fashion and clothes started.  I will always remember him when I hear an oldies song playing, when I see a classic car (especially if it’s a red 1967 Barracuda), when I’m eating a donut, drinking a hot cup of coffee or when I’m ironing my clothes. Yes I still iron haha but I got that from my dad.  He was always put together and his clothes were always crisp. I know he touched so many lives including mine. He will be greatly missed 🩷I will never forget the last words he said to me and the sound of his voice when he said ‘I love you Moo’. “The best things in life aren’t things”- Art Buchwald— 16 candles was the song we danced to at my wedding and my favorite song as a little girl that we used to dance to
