If you need some ideas
for Valentine’s Day that aren’t the norm especially when it comes to kids and
friends and even your loved ones. One wouldn’t think of socks or pens, but in
my family they are both loved. For real, my oldest loves socks. So, I wanted to share what Gold Toe and Pilot Pens has to offer.
Gold Toe
Like I said before socks
aren’t usually a Valentine’s Day gift, but Gold toe socks, aren’t your normal
sock. They have ones for kids, women and men, so everyone is covered. When I
say my oldest loves socks, i’m not kidding. Within 5 minutes of the box
arriving with a huge assortment of socks, she had on a pair of pink luxury
socks. Although, i’d love to feel them when they were not on her feet, I have
to say, they are so soft. I may or may not have taken the red pair for myself
(pretty sure she will steal them back though).
Besides the luxury
socks, I think our favorites were the colored sport. Mya’s style can be
described as sport. She loves yoga pants and sweatshirts. It helps that she is
a talented athlete too. The Sport socks are perfect for any type of shoe or
boot (it is winter after all).
If neither of those are
your style, don’t worry, Gold Toe has something for everyone in every style
from solid white, colors and even some with fun prints on them. I highly
recommend you check them out. Everyone needs socks, so adding them to a fun
Valentine’s Day gift basket is perfect.
I’m 33 years old and I
still love getting good pens. I’m sure i’m in the majority when I say, I love a
pen that is smooth and doesn’t leave ink blots. Writing smooth is a big thing
for me, especially since I have horrible handwriting, and I have yet to have a
Pilot pen that didn’t write amazing.
I think my favorite
regular writing pen is their Metropolitan Pop. It’s smooth on the outside and
writes amazing. It does come in a little case which is really neat (and perfect
for gifts), and comes in different colors. They are a little higher than a
normal pen, price wise, but in my opinion very worth it.
I remember when I was a
kid and loved when I got a pen that I could erase, so when Pilot sent a pack of
the Frixion Erasable Gel Pens, I was so happy. While they leave a little bit
behind (more the indentation from writing), the eraser is awesome. Not only
that, but they also have some great colors, like green, purple, blue etc.
There are so many
options when it comes to Pilot Pens, no matter what your style it. From ball
point, rolling ball, erasable and everything in between.
So if either of these
sound good to you, i’d go and get some now and surprise your Valentine with
something a little less traditional to go along with other gifts.

These socks look very comfy. I am picky about my socks as they have to stay up yet be loose as I hate tight socks
ReplyDeleteThis is hilarious because I would so much rather receive socks and pilot pens for Valentine's Day than flowers and chocolate! You never know the true way to a girl's heart....
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm very practical also because I get more excited about socks and pens than I do the traditional Valentine's Day gifts. Although I do love chocolates, they just don't need to come in a heart shaped box.
ReplyDeleteI love these as gifts for VDay! I am a practical kind of girl and would love these instead of flowers or chocolate!
ReplyDeleteFuzzy socks are the best! I get more excited about things I can use all the time and are functional than flowers. Shhhh don't tell as normally he gets me candy. It is always the thoughts that count.
ReplyDeleteI need those socks in my life. They are so fuzzy and comfy!
ReplyDeleteFuzzy socks are the best. What a great gift, I actually needed an idea too lol
ReplyDeleteMy daughter just loves socks, she would love the fuzzy socks. Very nice pens so classy.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of getting things that are practical and needed. Pens always make me happy!
ReplyDeleteGold toe is the same brand I buy for my husband. The brand has quality and the workmanship is impressive.
ReplyDeleteThose are indeed very soft socks, what we also have at home...I just forgot the brand...very easy to put on - I love that they are also in different colors! :)
