Delightful Valentine’s Day Gifts to Woo a Beloved, Bestie or Yourself

February 1, 2023

We’re unabashed romantics. So when it comes to Valentine’s Day, we are firmly behind sweeping love stories, bold cinematic gestures, armfuls of blooms — and wearing your heart on your sleeve both literally and figuratively. And this season, designers are feeling the love as well with both chic and cheeky takes on romance, poetry, heart motifs and stylishly saccharine hues.

We also firmly believe in the power of being your own best Valentine. So whether you’re giving to a beloved, a bestie or yourself, you’ll have a sweet selection of gifts to surprise and delight. And since we also have a special fondness for those sugary pastel conversation hearts, we’ve come up with a few of our own little phrases to pair with the perfect Valentine’s Day prezzie.
