VALENTINE’S DAY GIFT IDEAS FOR HER AND HIM

Sure, chocolate and flowers are traditional Valentine’s Day gift ideas. But if you’re looking for something a little different, here are some great options that are sure to please.

HENRI BENDEL KISS AND TELL CHIFFON SCARF

I always love a great scarf and this one from Henri Bendel is the perfect choice for a fun and fabulous Valentine’s Day gift. I love all the great colors and think this would make a fun, chic gift for that special someone.  There are also smaller scarf options that come in similar prints and designs. This retails for $138.

HEART OF GOLD GIFT SET FROM LUSH

I love gifts from Lush because they come wrapped and ready to go, making gift giving super easy. The Heart of Gold gift set comes with a French Kiss bubble bar, Sex Bomb bath bomb, Charity Pot hand and body lotion, Soft Coeur massage bar, From Dusk till Dawn massage bar and a Willow Pattern soap. The gift set sells for $49.95.

MONOGRAM NOTE CARDS FROM PAPYRUS

If you want a gift that looks like you put a lot of time and thought into it, then go for the monogrammed note cards available at Papyrus. In less than 30 minutes, you can personalize a set of note cards for her that is available in a variety of colors and styles. And you can’t beat the price! Writing a nice, personalized note has become a rarity these days with email, so it is always a nice and unexpected to surprise to receive a handwritten note on beautiful stationary. You get 20 cards for $20 including personalized envelopes.

HEATHER MOORE PERSONALIZED CUFF LINKS

Every man needs at least one set of nice cuff links. Heather Moore is a wonderful jewelry designer who creates custom-made designs that you can personalize. I love her cuff links because you can choose exactly what you want them to say—from important dates and names to even actual handwriting taken from notes and letters. These cuff links are available at Swag and Neiman Marcus. Prices range from $500-$1,100.

DIESEL WATCHES

Many guys love a great watch. The trend in men’s timepieces is mixing different material elements, like this watch which incorporates metal touches with silicone. Oversize watch faces are also a popular trend. The bigger the better when it comes to men’s watches. This watch from Diesel retails for $240.

MONOGRAM STEAK BRAND FROM WILLIAMS SONOMA

If your guy likes to grill, this is the perfect Valentine’s Day gift. Let the outdoor chef put his own signature mark on his creations with a monogram steak brand.  They can take pride in their grilling by searing their own initials into steaks and chops using this iron brand that’s hand forged by a Texas cattle rancher. Choose from single, double or triple initials. The monogram steak brand retails for $39.95.
