Whether you’re into Valentines Day or not, it’s a great time to bring out some reds from the closet. When shopping for Valentines Day, I try to keep utility in mind. This means whatever I buy has to be something I can use for the year and not something I buy that will only last 24 hours.
This year, I looked around and found some great things for Valentines Day and the rest of the year. Here are some things that made my list:
