If you are a morning news fan, then you probably caught me on your local station recently talking you through some fun ideas for all types of relationships whether you’re spreading the love to your best friends, or reconnecting with your ‘happily ever after’. It’s never easy to think of a Valentine’s Day gift that will express to your loved ones just how much you love and appreciate them. It’s a tall order! But, there is hope. Here are a few ideas that I came up with, with the help of some partners at a few of my favorite brands. Enjoy!

 

Happily Ever After

You’ve withstood the test of time, but your Valentine’s Day ideas are stuck in a rut. I’ve been in a relationship for 8 years and know that it can get tough to find the perfect gift year after year. You just don’t need anymore “stuff”. What you do need is a good night’s sleep and to keep those fires burning in the bedroom! Nothing can make you want to spend more time in the bedroom than an amazing new bed. Most couples can’t agree on how firm their mattress should be, so the new Sleep Number Memory Foam Bed is the answer. It has DualAir technology that allows couples to adjust each side to their ideal level of firmness. Seriously, this is the ultimate gift to keep you both happy for years to come. You can get Sleep Number mattresses at one of their 400 stores nationwide. http://www.sleepnumber.com/

Long Distance Love

Webcams have changed the way that we communicate, in a really good way. My husband and I bought a webcam for his parents for Christmas a few years ago and it has changed how the whole family communicates. Now, Logitech has come out with the Logitech TV Cam HD that hooks directly to your TV through an HDMI cable. It has a wide angle lens so that you can see the whole living room and chat from the comfort of your couch without having to hold anything or huddle around a laptop, computer, or tablet. I’m convinced that this is going to take video chatting to the next level and will make it even more fun to talk face to face with those far away.

Spread the Love

Communication is key to keeping relationships strong no matter who you are. This February, Skype is helping you spread the love by offering a 30day free trial of Skype Premium and Unlimited World Calling. So you can watch a rom com with your girl friends across the country or connect to your long distance sweetheart who is away on business in Singapore for FREE. Just visit www.skype.com/go/skypewithlove to get your free 30 days.

New Relationship

The Eco Tools Fresh & Flawless Five Piece Complexion Set is an amazing gift for you to give yourself for Valentine’s Day so that you can look your best and do good too. Impress your new, or future, beau by dolling yourself up using these sustainable incredibly soft and cute make-up brushes. The unique cruelty-free bristles leave a high-definition, photo ready air-brushed look and they’re cruelty free to boot. If you’re stumped as to what you want your Valentine’s Day look to be…check out the Eco Tools website for three distinct tutorials for your Big Night Out, Romantic Night in and Girls’ Night!
