It’s February, the month of love. And while we’re all for you paying tribute to the special bond you share with your S.O., this year we encourage you to embrace the friendships you’ve developed over the years by celebrating every gal’s best-friend-focused holiday, Galentine’s Day. The nonofficial (but widely loved) holiday, originally made famous by the show Parks and Recreation and day for “ladies celebrating ladies,” is now a national event celebrated on February 13th—and gaining traction each year. To help you get inspired for your Galentine gift giving, we asked some of our favorite gal pals in the industry to share what they’re giving to their Galantine’s this year. Up next, American actress and Bird Bakery owner Elizabeth Chambers and her BFF, Nasiba Adilova, founder of The Tot. Elizabeth explains, “I couldn’t ask for a better, more loyal friend than Nasiba. Yes, we have companies next to each other, children the same age, and a shared love of fashion and food, but most importantly, we have a friendship where we can talk about anything and everything. We’re always there for each other and she laughs at all of my jokes, which is delightful.” Nasiba adds, “It was one of those 'friends at first sight' scenarios where you bond instantly. Despite having lots of friends in common, we actually met because we were both opening stores right next to each other at Highland Park Village (in Dallas)! All of our first conversations, however, were actually about babies, not business! Elizabeth had just had her son, Ford and I was about to have my second son, and we just connected. Not only is Elizabeth an amazing mother, but she is also an incredibly savvy entrepreneur. She has so much passion and drive and has created an incredible business with her other baby, Bird Bakery. I have so much admiration for her.” Below, Elizabeth and Nasiba share the gifts they’re giving to their best gal pals this Galentine’s day. From their beauty secret products to their all-time-favorite luxury candles, here’s what they recommending gifting this year.
