Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For Guys And Girls
By Rich Girl
Filed under Rich Girl's Blog
I have already mentioned before, that Valentine’s Day is one of my most favorite holidays. I love everything about it: chocolates, flowers, cards, hearts, romantic diners and getaways. It is a very beautiful day of love and unity. And even if you don’t have that special someone at the moment, you should still spend this day pampering and spoiling yourself, because the first and most important person in your life is YOU! And you deserve the best!
For those of you, who have already found that special someone, I have a question: what gifts you usually buy, if you buy any at all? Girls, what do you get to your husbands or boyfriends? How do you surprise your Mr. Right on Valentines Day? I personally always find it difficult to find a perfect and suitable gift for a guy, that’s why I have decided to collect some ideas on the internet. Please let me know what do you think?
Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas For Men
1 – Great bottles of wine and golf balls
Well, maybe this gift idea is not very original, but it sure is practical. I think that every guy will be able to appreciate good wine and if he plays golf, then you should know better that there is never too much of golf balls.
2 – Cufflinks
Cufflinks is also a great present for guys, who wear suites to work or need to attend formal events on a regular basis. If you are not sure that your boyfriend even has a shirt with cufflinks, you can buy him a shirt as well. It is time you introduce him to classic attire.

3 – Valentine Bamboo
I don’t think that guys like to receive flowers on Valentines Day, but this bamboo is different. I can see this bamboo to be delivered to your boyfriends office by a courier. He will be pleasantly surprised and I think it will look nicely in his office. Bamboo symbolizes good luck and success and brings good fortune and prosperity to the house or office. It is also said that bamboo is luckiest when you receive it as a gift. So, isn’t it a great gift idea? You will help your boyfriend attract luck as well as it will always remind him about your love towards him.
Valentine’s Day – Be Still My Heart Valentine Bamboo – Best
4 – Cheesecake Heart
Who said that cakes are only for girls? Guys love sweet things and desserts as much as we do. Also, by giving him cake in a shape of heart you shoot two birds with one stone: you will have a romantic dessert to share between you and you have a present. Genius! 
5 – Dom Perignon Champagne and Godiva Truffles
This present is of course unisex, but if you don’t have better idea, then this will be also perfect. Again, you can share it afterwards and toast your engagement, in case he will choose to propose on Valentines Day. You never know, need to be always ready and with great manicure!

6 – Chocolate Bouquet
This is also a great gift idea for a guy, but it is better be delivered to his office, because if you gonna have it at home, I bet you are not be strong enough to hold on to your resolutions to limit sugar intake.
Valentine’s Day – Sweets In Bloom Chocolate Enchantment Valentine’s Day Flower Bouquet – Best
6 – Ultimate Valentine’s Day Gift Just For Him
This gift covers everything Valentines Day stands for: flowers, candies or sweets and a gift. Well, I am still not sure about the flowers for a guy, but all together it looks quite fancy. What do you think?
Valentine’s Day – Just For Him Ultimate Valentine’s Day Gift – Vase Included
7 – Personalized M&M’s
I love this personalized m&m’s idea! It is also fun to order, you can choose different colors, you can add your own text or choose from the selection that they already have and finally you can choose the package – a box, bottle, vase or dispenser. I think that personalized m&m’s in a dispenser is a super cool and fun gift idea for Valentines Day!

7 Ways To Celebrate Valentines Day In Luxury
By Rich Girl
Filed under Rich Girl's Blog, Rich Photos
Valentine’s Day is one of my most favorite days of the year, after my Birthday and New Years. I still remember how we all waited in anticipation this day in school, guessing if this year will be different and we will receive Valentine’s card from that special someone. Well, I received a lot of cute messages and cards on Valentine’s Day when I was studying, but never from someone I really wanted, which always made me feel disappointed. Now I remember it with a smile, back then it was a tragedy of my life.
Valentine’s Day is all about chocolate, red roses, champagne and love. Love between two people, what can be more beautiful and magical? There is no surprise that a lot of people choose Valentine’s Day for marriage or proposal, because everything around screams of love and unity. Together forever! This is the day when you want to believe in eternal love and true soul mates, the day you want to do something special and celebrate in style and luxury.
That is why I selected 7 most exciting and romantic ways to celebrate Valentine’s Day in The Ritz-Carlton hotels around the world.
The Ritz-Carlton, St. Thomas – Champagne Sunset Sail
I think that sunset is the most romantic part of the day. What do you think? How would you like to enjoy a beautiful & romantic sunset in the Caribbean waters with a live guitarist on-board?! Well, The Ritz-Carlton, St. Thomas is offering a special Champagne Sunset Sail this Valentine’s Day aboard Lady Lynsey, the resort’s luxury 53-foot catamaran which will pick guests up right from the resort beach.
Toast your romance with a selection of Champagne, savor specialty hors d’oeuvres and enjoy the soothing sounds of a live guitarist on-board as you sail through the serene Caribbean waters and watch one of St. Thomas’s legendary sunsets.
The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island – Fire by The Dunes
How about personal fire in the dunes, where a crackling fire, comfy blankets and the sound of soothing waves draw you closer?! If you and your partner love the beach, then the Fire by The Dunes experience at The Ritz-Carlton Amelia Island would be perfect choice for you this Valentine’s Day. The beach and fire by the dunes also includes s’mores, a thermos of hot chocolate, thermo cups and high-powered celestial binoculars for star gazing. A personal attendant is nearby to cater to your needs.
The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong – Take Your Breath Away
The world’s highest bar Ozone is offering a bespoke “Take Your Breath Away Dining Experience” which includes an exclusive use of the private dining room located at 490 metres above sea level, featuring captivating vistas of the city and Victoria Harbour; a 10-course menu, a bottle of Louis Roederer, Cristal 2004, a bouquet of 99 roses and a box of 99 pieces of chocolates. This exclusive package is available only on February 14 for one couple at The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong.
The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong – Sensational Spa-cial
Spa pampering is the ultimate Valentine’s Day indulgence for couples that is why The Ritz-Carlton Spa by ESPA this Valentine’s Day will be offering a 90-minute bespoke treatment in the Couple’s Suite, followed by a 60-minute relaxation time when guests can enjoy the Jacuzzi overlooking the Victoria Harbour in the secluded haven of the suite.
A bottle of champagne with chocolate-coated strawberries and red roses, an ESPA gift and an afternoon tea for two at Café 103 are with the Spa’s compliment to complete the sweetest experience ever.
The Ritz-Carlton, Dove Mountain – Romance Menu And Chocolate Decadence Buffet
This option will be perfect for people, who love chocolate, which is almost everyone of us. The Ritz-Carlton, Dove Mountain restaurant’s à la carte romance menu on Valentine’s Day will include a Chocolate Decadence buffet created by Executive Chef David Serus. Valentine’s Dinner at CORE Kitchen & Wine Bar will feature such main course selections as Grilled Beef Tenderloin with Green Asparagus and Dungeness Crab Béarnaise, Goat Cheese Soufflé Colorado Lamb with Truffle Gnocchi, and Pan-Seared John Dory with Crushed Fingerling Potatoes.
The Ritz-Carlton, Dove Mountain – Splash Dining
A spectacular outdoor dining experience, Splash Dining, will be offered the evening of February 14th, 2012. A once-in-a-lifetime experience, Splash Dining will include a dinner in a romantic private setting under the stars, as you dine on a specially-prepared menu served in the heated Turquesa Pool, with your legs partially immersed in the stunning shallow-depth Turquesa waters. The Valentine’s Splash Dining experience includes a four-course menu and champagne toast.
The Ritz-Carlton, Dove Mountain – Just for Us (couple’s experience)
Complementing the resort’s Valentine’s dining experiences, The Ritz-Carlton Spa, Dove Mountain has introduced also an exclusive new couple’s experience, Just for Us, which is available throughout the month of February. Just for Us features a rose petal bath, a 50-minute Ritz-Carlton Together Message, and champagne and strawberries for both guests.
I hope that reading through these magnificent options for Valentine’s Day inspired you to find creative and romantic ways how to celebrate this day of love to remember!

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Oscar Nominations 2012. What Do You Think, Girls?
By Rich Girl
Filed under Rich Girl's Blog
The nominees for the 2012 Academy Awards were announced on Tuesday morning, and for the first time in my life they made me sad. Sad, because out of all these movies I literally watched only 8 out of the whole list (including cartoons, special effects nominations, etc), which are: “The Descendants”, “Moneyball”, “Bridesmaids”, “Margin Call”, “Transformers: Dark of the Moon”, “Rio”, “Rango”, “Kung Fu Panda 2″. And out of these 8 movies, only 2 are nominated for the best movie award: “Moneyball” and “The Descendants”. So, I can’t even be excited for the upcoming event as I don’t know what to expect and hope for. Which is sad, because usually I know the majority of the movies and have my personal favorites.
This is the only downcast part for me of living in Spain, all the movies in theaters are dubbed in Spanish and there is hardly one movie in English (original version) per week. When I lived in Latvia I used to go to the movies almost every week, sometimes we even went to see a few movies on the same day. I love going to cinema, instead of watching movies at home, because it is a great fun. Dressing up, watching the trailers, watching people, buying popcorn, hating someone in the audience for being a jerk, this is all part of the experience. Of course people are different and only today I was reading one blog, where a girl was stating the exact opposite things. She said that she actually hates to go to the cinema and prefers to watch everything at home, without annoying people, who chew their popcorn way too loud.
Anyway, so as I haven’t seen the majority of the movies, I can’t judge if the nominations are fair or not. For example, I don’t think that “Moneyball” was some kind of special movie to be even considered for nomination, but it is only me. I loved “The Descendants” a lot, mostly because of the Clooney and I was reading the glorious reviews about “The Artist”, so I probably should watch this movie somehow before the Oscars night. And I also want to watch “Hugo”, as this Martin Scorsese’s movie earned 11 nominations. Oh, and “The Help” of course.
There is no possible way that I will be able to see all the movies, so girls, please help me out here. What are your most favorite movies from the list of Oscar Nominations for 2012? Is there a movie you strongly recommend to see? What are your predictions/hopes for the Oscars night? Who is your favorite actress, that deserves the Oscar this year? I would love to hear your opinion in the comments below.
Well, I don’t know who is going to win the Oscar in 2012, but one thing I know for sure, that on the 26th of February our favorite celebrity girls will be rocking their amazing dresses on the red carpet. And this is what I am really dying to see.

Vera Wang On Gossip Girl
By Rich Girl
Filed under Rich Girl's Blog
I was watching the latest episode of Gossip Girls today and was surprised to see Vera Wang there. Blair and Dan were visiting Vera Wang’s boutique on Madison Avenue for the wedding dress fitting and Vera Wang herself came to assist them.
It was nice to get inside the Vera Wang boutique, since I haven’t been there yet. Also I was surprised to see that the designer is a such tiny lady. They say that TV adds like 10 pounds to your appearance, well I just imagine how Vera Wang looks in real life.
Other than Vera Wang’s appearance, the latest Gossip Girl episode was a little bit sad to watch. I can’t stand how the writers are torturing pure Chuck and Blair, sometimes even without a common sense. One more thing that I noticed is that the parties on Gossip Girl are not too exciting anymore, like they used to be in the beginning when the show just started. In this episode they are celebrating New Year at Nate’s office, how lame is that?
Anyway, I am really waiting for the Wedding episode, which will also be the 100th episode of Gossip Girl, to be something special and spectacular, although I still want Chuck and Blair be together. Let’s wait and see.
Girls, what do you think about Gossip Girl? Are you watching it?

Miss America 2012: Laura Kaeppeler
By Rich Girl
Filed under Rich Girl's Blog
Yesterday, on the 14th of January 2012, during the 91st Miss America Pageant in Las Vegas, Miss Wisconsin – Laura Kaeppeler – was crowned the new Miss America 2012.
Along with the title, Laura won a $50,000 scholarship which she plans to use for becoming a lawyer, specializing in helping children of incarcerated adults.
Laura Kaeppeler, 23, has an unusual past. Her father served 18 months in federal prison for mail fraud when Laura just started college. Laura Kaeppeler made her father’s jail time part of her pageant platform and her mission, which is to help children of incarcerated adults feel less alone, to have mentoring and as much of a relationship with their parents as possible.
Laura also won an additional $2,000 in scholarship funds for her victory in the preliminary talent competition, for her performance of “Il Bacio” by Luigi Arditi.
So, what can I say?! Congratulations to new Miss America 2012! She looks cute and has a beautiful singing voice. She is also smart, as she introduced herself to pageant viewers by referencing her home state’s Green Bay Packers, the NFL’s defending Super Bowl champions, and used the television prime time to ask Aaron Rodgers (superstar quarterback) to call her. Very smart move!
Good luck to Laura in her future endeavors and I have a feeling that we will hear a lot about this girl in the future. She definitely has a potential of a future celebrity rich girl! Let’s wait and see if I am right

Filed under Rich Girl's Blog
I hope that each and everyone of you is having a very special time with your family or friends this Christmas. This year I had a wonderful celebration with my friends. We had so much fun and plenty of amazing food. I still can’t breathe after the amount of food I ate this Christmas. The good thing is that I already know what my New Years resolution will be: LOSE WEIGHT!!! Well, this will only hopefully happen next year, but now I can still enjoy my favorite food.
I love winter Holidays, everyone is happy, exchange gifts, reflect on the great things that had happened this year and hope for even better year to come!

Gemstone Bracelet = Magic, Luxury, Beauty And Heeling
By Rich Girl
Filed under Rich Girl's Blog
A few days ago I have noticed that my friend was wearing a very beautiful and unique bracelet. I haven’t seen something like that before, so I asked her what was that and where did she get it. She explained me, that it was a present from her boyfriend and the bracelet is handmade out of Agate Botswana gemstones. That these stones provide energy to the aura and promote eternal love, increase creativity and help you find solutions, rather than dwelling on your problems. And this stone also has been said to increase fertility and is known for increasing sensuality and passion in the person that carries it. So, not only the bracelet was really pretty, it also bared magic within it. I was jealous.
Where are a lot of stones in this world and each of them has a different meaning and has specific healing or protective qualities. I am not that much into stones myself, but I know a lot of people who can talk for hours about it. One of my guy-friends wears huge aquamarine ring on his finger, because it is said to be sailors’ lucky stone as well as a birthstone for those born in March. For me it may look a little bit strange, as I am not a fan of any kind of rings on men other than a wedding band, but I also respect his way of expressing himself.
I don’t know if you believe in special powers of certain stones, but in the course of human history, people have always believed in the power of crystals and stones, in their healing and spiritual qualities as well as ability to attract good energy, love and ‘luck’.
To enhance the power of the stones you need to make sure, that you wear them in skin contact, so bracelets or necklaces, which are made out of stones, are the perfect choice.
Of course, if you are interested in learning more about the power of stones, you can find a lot of useful and interesting information online. The reason why I wanted to write this post was because I really loved the bracelet which my friend was wearing and I wanted to have something similar. Turned out that these bracelets are handmade by highly skilled professional craftsmen and jewelers using the highest quality gemstones and diamonds in all colors, incorporating Platinum, Gold and Silver. The only way to get them is to order online at Nibrana.com.
So, I contacted the owner of the site, expressed my admiration, asked a lot of questions and as a result they offered me 20% discount on any purchase. Which was super cool, right?! You need to talk and be nice to people, it always pays off, you know. They also liked the Rich Girls Club so much, that they decided to offer 20% discount for everyone with coupon code: richgirls
So, whether you believe or not in the special powers of stones, you can’t deny the fact that these bracelets look amazing and one of them can definitely be a great Christmas present for someone special! Sometimes it is so hard to find a gift with a certain meaning, so let the stones do the talking for you.
Below are just a few Nibrana bracelets, which I loved the most. You can find a lot more on their site.

Nibrana Bracelets For Him
If you are still looking for a Christmas present for your boyfriend and if he is into these kind of things, one of the bracelets could actually be a great gift.
So, rich girls, what do you think about Nibrana bracelets or the power of stones? Do you believe that certain stones have certain healing or other qualities? Maybe you had a story to tell us about how wearing stones helped you? We would love to hear back from you! Also, don’t forget about 20% discount on Nibrana.com with coupon code: richgirls
Happy Holidays, Rich Girls!

11 Christmas Party Hairstyle Ideas And Tutorials
By Rich Girl
Filed under Rich Girl's Blog
Holiday season is officially here with all the necessary decorations, exciting preparations and gift hunting. And while Santa Claus is working on my extended wish list this year, I started to gather ideas on how to make myself look special during this festive time.
One of the hardest parts of the Christmas outfit is actually the hair. You want it to look outstanding, that’s why before you go to your hairdresser, it is always better to have a proper idea in mind. I always come prepared and send pictures with the look that I want to achieve to my stylist in advance. This saves a lot of time, energy and nerves, especially before important events.
So, here is my list of the coolest 2011 hairstyle ideas for Christmas and New Years parties. I have also added video tutorials of these hairdos, which I found on YouTube, just in case you want to try and do it yourself. And if after browsing all these hairstyles you will still feel like it’s not enough, check out my list of other 10 hairdos here.
1 – Elegant Updo Hairstyle For Medium or Long Hair by lilithedarkmoon
This hairstyle is very elegant and feminine. This hairdo will be perfect for your family get together or even the upscale white tie Charity event.
2 – French Fishtail Braid Hairstyles For Medium or Long Hair by lilithedarkmoon
Braided hairstyles are still one of my favorite. You can never go wrong with such hairdo. You can wear it like a french fishtail braid or can gather all your hair in a neat updo. Either way this look is very feminine and stylish. The only important thing to remember is that the braid should be done very neatly and professionally. I won’t trust myself to make such hairstyle on my own.
3 – Dutch Crown Braid Hairstyle For Medium or Long Hair by lilithedarkmoon
This is the other example of braided hairdo which will be ideal for any party. With this hairstyle you definitely won’t be bothered with your hair being all over the place.
4 – Easy Party Updo For Medium or Long Layered Hair by lilithedarkmoon
This hairstyle is classy and elegant and although it looks like you’ve spent a lot of time on it, in reality is a very easy and fast option.
5 – Celebrity Side Bun Hairstyle by lilithedarkmoon
I love this side bun hairstyle. A lot of different celebrities such as Natalie Portman, Nicole Kidman, Scarlett Johansson to name a few have chosen this particular hairdo for various red carpet events and I can see why.
6 – Greek Goddess Party Hairstyle by lilithedarkmoon
If you want to add a little bit of edge to your classical bun hairstyle, I think you can use the idea shown in the following tutorial.
7 – Funky Hairstyle With Steps For Short Hair by HairGirl247
Although I personally have long hair and that is why all previous hairstyle ideas were ideal for long or medium hair, I also have a lot of friends, who have short hair. So, I decided to add a couple ideas for girls with short hair. Actually, it was very hard to find something interesting.
I loved this edgy hairstyle for short hair. It will be perfect for New Years party in a club or any celebration with your friends.
8 – Curly Flirty Hairstyle For Short Hair by HairGirl247
This is very romantic and flirty hairdo for short hair. I love the curls!
9 – Elegant Hair Bow Hairstyle by CinthiaTruong
I absolutely love this bow hairstyle, maybe because it reminds me of the bows we put on presents. How sweet and cute! And I want presents, lots of them
10 – Kim Kardashian Inspired Boho-Chic Ribbon Braids by LuxyHair
This Kim Kardashian inspired ribbon braids hairdo is one more reminder of Christmas gifts and decorations.
11 – Funky, Edgy Party Hairstyle by LuxyHair
And if you are so over sweet and elegant hairstyles, here is a funky one. You will look like a rock star at any Christmas or New Years party you choose to attend. I think that this hairstyle will look amazing with sequined dress or even leather one.
So, girls, these are some Christmas 2011 hairstyle ideas that I could find online. Of course you need to adjust your hairdo to your whole outfit, but no one knows where you need to start. You can start with your hairstyle and choose the appropriate dress, shoes and other accessories for this particular hairdo or the other way around. Me main idea is to look your best!
What do you think, girls? Is there any hairstyle which you like? Maybe you have other cool ideas? Please share your thoughts in the comments below!
Happy Holiday Season, Rich Girls!

Thanksgiving Dinner Table Centerpiece Ideas
By Rich Girl
Filed under Rich Girl's Blog, Rich Photos
In Latvia (where I am from) we don’t have tradition of celebrating Thanksgiving, so all my information about this holiday is based mainly on the movies and TV-series. I love the idea of the whole family get-together with special pies and turkey, counting of blessings and the traditional Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade which will walk the streets of New York City for the 85th time this year.
This is basically all my knowledge about Thanksgiving, but what I really love about it, apart from the stuff I mentioned above, is the table decoration. I love how the house is decorated with Autumn flowers and especially the Thanksgiving dinner table.
As I have mentioned before, I learned about Thanksgiving mainly from the movies, so my greatest inspiration for the holiday table setting were festive episodes on Gossip Girl.
The table setting I loved the most was in the Episode 11 of Season 3. I tried to make a still of this episode, just to show you how it looked in case you missed it or not watching these series. But of course it is not of a very high quality, sorry about that, girls.
The other episode which showed awesome Thanksgiving table setting was the Episode 10 of the Season 4.
I just can’t wait for the next episode of Gossip Girl, I wonder if it will be dedicated to Thanksgiving as well.
So, inspired by the amazing table setting examples, I decided that although I don’t know how to cook traditional Thanksgiving dinner or have my family around here in Spain, at least what I can do is to decorate my house with festive flowers, drink some wine and count my blessings.
I searched online a little and found a lot of useful ideas on how to make amazing centerpieces yourself. For example, look at these adorable flower arrangements, which I found on Martha Stewart site:
Here is how you can make this flower arrangement yourself.
Here is how you can make this Gilded Pear Basket yourself.
But of course, who am I kidding. There is no way in a million years that I am going to make something like that myself. I’ll just go and order it online or at the nearest florist boutique. Here you can see just a few of my most favorite centerpieces that I am considering of buying. What do you think?
The FTD® Bright Autumn Centerpiece
The FTD® Fall Harvest Cornucopia by Better Homes and Gardens®
The FTD® Bountiful Flower Bouquet
Harvest Blessings Autumn Centerpiece
Jane Seymour Silk Botanicals Dahlia-Rose Centerpiece

Happy Thanksgiving!
