Love Yourself More – My February Picks

Hi my girlies!

I hope you all celebrated Galentine’s or Valentine’s Day just the way you deserve. 💘 Whether it was with your besties, your partner, or a little solo self-love, I hope it was filled with joy!

As for me, I spent my Valentine’s skiing in the French Alps (so dreamy!), sipping on rosé champagne, and indulging in the cutest little French cakes—so tasty and such a vibe!

Pit stop for a quick shot with the beautiful mountains in the background.

Since February is all about love, this month’s blog is dedicated to loving yourself more—because nothing shines brighter than confidence and self-care! I’m sharing some simple but powerful ways to treat yourself, a round-up of top-tier hair mists (because luxury is self-love too!), and an exciting fragrance event in London.

Let’s get into it! ✨



4 Positive Affirmations to Start Loving Yourself More

I’m a big believer that your mindset shapes your reality. So let’s start with four affirmations you can repeat daily to boost your confidence and attract good energy:

💖 I am a magnet for joy.
💖 I can create anything I desire.
💖 I am beautiful just as I am.
💖 I am grateful for all that I have.

Try saying these in front of a mirror, writing them down, or repeating them when you need a little self-love boost!




My Go-To Self-Love Rituals

For me, self-love isn’t just about words—it’s about daily habits that make me feel good. Here are a few simple things that help me connect with myself and feel amazing:

"Me Time" Moments – Brew a good-quality tea, pour it into your favorite cup, and light a candle. Taking just 5-10 minutes to slow down, breathe, and enjoy the moment can do wonders for your energy.

Nourish Your Skin – After every shower, I take my time to moisturize my skin properly. Instead of rushing through it, I focus on how soft and hydrated I want my skin to feel. Being present in small rituals helps me appreciate myself more.

Move Your Body – Whether it’s a fitness class or a sport you love, getting active always lifts your mood. The endorphins + sense of accomplishment = instant confidence boost!

Mirror Talk – Look in the mirror and tell yourself how proud you are. Compliment yourself. It might feel silly at first, but trust me—it works!




4 Top-Tier Hair Mists You NEED in Your Life

Luxury hair mists are the ultimate finishing touch—they make your hair smell divine while adding a soft, elegant aura that lasts all day. Here are four of the best, all housed in gorgeous glass bottles (because details matter 😉):

Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Scented Hair Mist

The iconic Baccarat Rouge 540 scent in a lightweight, luxurious hair mist. It blends jasmine, saffron, cedarwood, and ambergris, leaving your hair subtly shiny, fragrant, and irresistibly elegant.

Initio Oud for Greatness Hair Perfume

A unisex, opulent oud-based hair mist that adds depth and mystery to your aura. Its woody and spicy notes make it bold yet sophisticated, perfect for those who love powerful, statement fragrances.

Diptyque Eau Rihla Hair Mist

Inspired by the spirit of travel, this mist combines warm spices, leather, and deep woody notes for a scent that evolves beautifully throughout the day. It's rich, mysterious, and long-lasting—perfect for those who love unique, intoxicating fragrances.

Parfums de Marly Delina Hair Mist

If you love fresh, feminine scents, this one is for you! Delina’s signature mix of lychee, rhubarb, and rose gives your hair a soft, romantic fragrance that’s playful yet luxurious.
