Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and I as watched my wife post her gift guide last week, I thought it would be a fun idea to piece together a Men’s Valentine’s Day gift guide! I’ve put together some items that I think most guys will like in one way or the other! I’ll review the items from the guide in numeric order, but wanted to point out that there are also a few additional items that you can shop below in addition from the guide.
First thing you should know about me is that I wear a suit almost every day. Throughout the years I have noticed that one of the first things people look at when any man wears a suit is his shoes. Dress shoes tie a man’s entire look together, so they need to be on point! These Derby shaped brown leather dress shoes offer a clean design with a chiseled toe, giving a distinguished yet timelessly styled look to any suit! I also like to wear funky socks, they let me express my personality and give me an added sense of confidence. These floral print socks do just the trick and they go well with a grey or navy suit and brown leather dress shoes. If floral isn’t your style, Express offers a variety of other fun and fresh prints. This watch by MVMT offers a classic face design, leather strap, and a little style flare from the rose gold accents. It’s a classy watch with a timeless (pun intended) feel that is a great addition to any wrist piece collection! I like to finish off my suit and tie look with a tie clip, it adds a little bit of style and also keeps your tie neatly in place throughout the day! I prefer tie clips that slide on vs tie clips that clip on, I feel like the slide on tie clips give a much more seamless and put together look. This tie clip does a nice job of blending glossy and matte metal finishes, goes well with any color tie, and fits well with skinny or narrow ties! This Warm Tobacco candle from D.L & Co smells great and has the look of a high end BYREDO candle at a reasonable price point of $19. It has a nice, but manly scent when burned that is great for any office, man-cave, or media room. I like to burn this candle after binge watching Gilmore Girls, it helps to mask the shame of the fact that I just watched 10 straight episodes and actually enjoyed them! I travel quite a bit for work, and going on a business trip can be hectic enough. The last thing I need to worry about is having my ties look wrinkled and worn out from packing them incorrectly. This travel tie case is compact and fits 3-4 ties, allowing your man to keep his ties looking nice and neat, and is fairly priced at $16.95. My wife, A.K.A LifeWithLaurenAnn actually got me a pair of Beats headphones a few years ago and I refuse to go anywhere without them. The battery life is long (takes 2 AAA batteries), they are lightweight, and you seriously cannot BEAT (I’m on a roll) the sound that they produce. They are all around amazing headphones that will get used on a daily basis! I like to wear fun ties that accent my look and style, I usually go for solid colors, simple patterns, and slimmer vs. traditional sized ties. If you prefer fitted or European suits, traditional sized ties tend to look over sized and can take away from the overall look that you’re trying to achieve. Lately I’ve been into floral print ties, and this tie can add some color to any dapper look and is great for any occasion. Any guy who drinks whiskey or bourbon can appreciate these whiskey stones. They chill your drink, but won’t dilute the flavor like ice cubes tend to do. Not to mention, you can have them engraved with your guy’s initials or monogram! Last but not least, this wallet is a great addition for any sports fanatic, the inside divider is actually made from legit baseball, football, or hockey game used jerseys. They also offer bottle openers that are made from game used baseball bats and hockey pucks. Here is a list of each team (categorized by sport and team) that is currently available from the company:
– MLB (Baseball) = Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, New York Mets, New York Yankees, San Francisco Giants, St. Louis Cardinals
– NFL (Football) = Chicago Bears, Dallas Cowboys, New England Patriots, New York Giants, Pittsburg Steelers, San Francisco 49ers, New York Jets
– NHL (Hockey) = Boston Bruins, Chicago Blackhawks, Detroit Red Wings, New York Rangers, Philadelphia Flyers, Pittsburg Penguins
