Sometimes the occasion for giving flowers is just because — just because you love someone, just because you were thinking of them or just because you’re there. 

Excessive shopping and gifting is always a big part of the holiday season, but I’ve gotten to the point where I’m content with the clothing, makeup and materials I have already. As I get older, I’ve found I focus more on new experiences and travel rather than the numerous gift ideas picked out for me by my TikTok algorithm.
