Let’s be real: the most romantic day of the year can also be the most daunting for some. How do you make a good first impression for the woman you’ve been eyeing? How do you still come up with creative ways to surprise a lover you’ve been dating or married to for years? Or for those who are thinking of celebrating Galentine’s this year, what do you gift the girlfriend who has everything?
With social distancing measures making it increasingly difficult to plan a fun or sexy rendezvous, gifts have become the universal way of expressing our love and adoration for our other halves and loved ones. Nevertheless, they can be telling of just how much we’ve been paying attention to their needs and desires.
In case you need help jogging your memory or additional inspiration to aid your oblivious self, we’ve rounded up 21 Valentine’s Day gift ideas for every woman in your life. From cosmetics and jewellery to coffee machines and pretty tableware, we’ve got them all in this ultimate gift guide.
