For her

Adidas Sambas White and Red – £90

The way to woman’s heart is a pair of Adidas Sambas. You can’t argue with this. So imagine what you’ll do to her if you come armed with a pair of these in RED on Valentine’s Day. You can get them here on JD Sports.

Lounge Kaia Intimates Basque Set – £80

PSA: It is not predictable to get red underwear for your girlfriend. It’s very, very welcome. This gorgeous set from Lounge is giving off a sexy Bridgerton vibe. It also looks great over a pair of jeans, so she’ll have lots of opportunities to wear it in and out of the bedroom. Girl maths. You can see their full Valentine’s collection here.

Stackers heart travel jewellery box – £25.50

With personalisation options available, this makes it the perfect personal gift for a loved one, whether you’re celebrating Valentine’s or Galentine’s.

Astrid and Miyu Heart Charm Bracelet and Huggies –  £70 each

Every girl wants jewellery and nothing says Valentine’s Day like a heart charm design. Plus, look at the dinky size of these Astrid and Miyu huggies. They’re adorable. The whole set comes in silver or gold depending on what type of girlie she is. You can’t go wrong.

Siesta Club Safari Bikini Set – £79 

It’s never too early to start getting your summer – or winter getaway – wardrobe ready. And this bikini from Siesta Club is screaming rosé in the sun. Worn by It-girls across Australia, you know the vibey design has been thoroughly vetted for maximum tanning efficiency. 

Domaine du Météore Le Cratère Sparkling Rosé – £30

If you’re going to get booze as a gift, it has to be a flex. It also has to be sexy (aka not pints). This drink is both. Le Cratère is an organic “methode champenoise” sparkling rosé wine made in limited quantities (970 bottles) from Syrah grapes. Over 10 thousand years ago a meteorite struck a hillside in Southern France and helped form, Le Cratère, a cosmic wine from another dimension. There you go, perfect for an astrology girly. You can get it here.

Fruity Booty Propose To Me 2-Piece – £72

If you’ve got a cool girl on your hands, she’ll be well acquainted with the underwear from Fruity Booty, the London-based it-brand powered by repurposed fabrics and sustainably sourced materials. Kendall Jenner and Matilda Djerf are fans. You can see their full playful Valentine’s collection here. But if you’re looking for something different (i.e. not lingerie) they have gorgeous slinky dresses too, like this one made from deadstock fabric.

Honey Glow resurfacing serum – £56

This night serum from Farmacy is proven to transform your skin after just one night, and tbh, she’ll probably just be glowing knowing that you understand the importance of her skincare routine. 

Love by Coach – £76

Valentine's Day gift guide 2024

Gifting perfume to your girlfriend on Valentine’s Day is predictable yes but there’s a reason why it’s always done and that’s because literally every girl loves to receive perfume. And with Love by Coach (available at The Fragrance Shop) now she can carry your love with her everywhere she goes. I mean who doesn’t want to smell like roses and wild strawberry?

Jabra Elite 10 earbuds – £229.99

Valentine's Day gift guide 2024

Champion Washed Cotton Zip-Up Hoodie – £80

The downtime, the chilling, the watching TV and Deliverooing together is what life is literally about.

You can buy it from Champion right here.

Champagne and ‘I Love You’ Giant Cookie & Brownie, both Morrisons – £12.50, £7

If you really really want to get the message across this Valentine’s Day, there’s no better way to do it than with a huge (and delicious) brownie. If cookies aren’t your thing, Morrisons has plenty of other sweet treats to choose from here. It’s only right that you get her a bottle of champagne to wash it down with too (and only £12.50 if you have a Morrisons card).
