Hi Everyone!
Happy Monday friends….and Happy February! Ah February….a month of emotion and celebration. Its the month we celebrate and honor the great contributions people of color have made to our world and nation, and its also the month of lovers.
Valentines Day. Not gonna lie…its not my favorite holiday. In fact, Im not much of a fan at all. For those who know me this may actually come as a surprise since I really am a hopeless romantic, and I’m crazy in love with my wife. I am a total sucker for love and it makes me giddy happy to see others find that special someone to share life with. Plus, as a two woman household one would assume that February in thecottagebungalow would just be a smorgasbord of allll the Valentine’s things, right? Ummm, nope!
Truth be told, I just get so overwhelmed by it all. The candy, and balloons, and flowers, and anxiety over making sure those dinner reservations at that coveted restaurant are secured, and stress over getting the perfect gift….its all just too much for me. I always feel so lost. So I usually just try to make it to Feb 15 as if the day before wasnt a thing.
But, unlike me, Naomi actually enjoys Valentines Day. She’s not necessarily into to the extreme lovie dovie stuff, but she does like to recognize it as a day to take an extra moment to show how much she loves and appreciates me. She always gives me the sweetest gifts and cards. I usually dont. I know, I suck. Im working on myself. I swore this year would be the year I did better and I wanted to gift her something she would be able to use and enjoy everyday.
Naomi isnt much of a jewelry girl, and flowers are much more MY thing than hers, but I knew a new timepiece would be something she’d love. She raves about the Daniel Wellington watch she already has, so I wanted to get her another to add to her collection. I love that thier watches are simple, timeless, and elegant. And I love that they have a beautiful selection of options to choose from, including gift sets and Valentine’s Bundles perfect for the holiday. I love a good gift set…especially when it comes with a little something extra. These have special pricing right now and as an added bonus you can use code “SGSTYLE” to save an extra 15% off in addition to any other promotions!
I’m a sucker for beautiful packaging and the gift wrapping is so pretty! The Valentine’s sets come in several bundle options, including this one with two Sheffield watches, but you can also customize and create your own.
Naomi is the kinda girl that likes to have choices so I love that this set is super classic with the leather bands and two different size options. I also love that it came with these cute rose gold heart charms. I may or may not be stealing these for myself! Right now the heart charm is included for free in every leather watch purchase.
And as a final special touch, each purchase between now and February 14th also comes with a free poem. Honestly this might be my favarite part of all. Naomi LOVES cards and I usually spend more time picking out the perfect card than I do on anything else. The one that was included in her gift set couldn’t be a more perfect love letter for us. She is my very best friend and I cant imagine walking through life with anyone other than her by my side.
Naomi loves it and I finally feel like I nailed Vday for once!

This post convinced me to pull the trigger on a the watch I have been eyeing forever but I was unable to combine your promo code with another offer. They only let me use one promo code. Just wanted to let you know.
