Valentine's Day Gift Guide for Her

Gifts for the women in your life. 

It is no secret that Valentine's Day is/can feel like a commercial holiday meant to boost sales of all things lovey dovey and Hallmark. I agree with this to an extent, but I think a lot of wonderful dates with S.O.'s and best friends have popped up as a result. While I've deviated from wanting a bouquet of roses and a box of chocolates (and maybe a teddy bear and conversation hearts), I definitely have developed a desire for quality time and cherished memories. Sometimes, those sweet times are sparked by a little party or thoughtful gift, so I've curated a collection of things I'm considering gifting this Galentine's Day that might inspire your V-Day shopping plans: 

1. A feminine candle. 
2. A pretty baseball cap for casual days and dirty hair. 
3. A handwritten character necklace. 
4. XOXO balloons.
5. Face masks for your five fave gals on Galentine's Day. 
6. This light-hearted water bottle. 
7. A fun pin for baseball caps or backpacks. 
8. A pretty fold over clutch that makes a statement. 
9. Bath salts to relax in after a long day. 
10. An eye-mask with all the personality. (I actually just bought this Sunday).

Valentine's Day Gift Guide for your Galentine, your Main Man, or your Main Girl!

For Your Galentine ...

1. Something pretty for her to relax in while you two make face masks, paint nails, and FB stalk your crush. 
2. For your weekly popcorn and movie dates without which you'd be completely lost.
3. The aforementioned mask with only 3 ingredients - none of them harmful chemicals - to help her skin be as radiant as her heart.

For Your Main Man ...

1. A great card that would be perfect with a special playlist for the night.
2. A personalized cocktail muddler so you can get slightly tipsy from his beautiful cocktail making skills and have a ball of a time.
3. Delicious chocolate whiskey, because he doesn't do sweets, but he appreciates the sentiment.

For Your Main Girl ...

1. The back issue of New York Magazine for the month you met or became a couple, because she's sentimental and would cherish it with all of her heart.
2. She can't keep a piggy in her room, but you can give an animal or kit to families in need in her name.
3. A beautiful chemise because you know how much she loves lace, sexy nighties, and grown-up cuddling.
