Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and I have searched high and low to bring you a comprehensive gift guide for all of the special people in your life… including some treats for yourself! Men can be particularly tough to shop for, so I consulted with my husband for a few ideas as well. Happy shopping!

 

FOR MEN:

Sentimental Gifts

For the romantic, Smythson offers a beautiful Love Letters Notebook filled with poetry by famous authors.

This journal allows you to document special moments big and small, telling your unique love story.

The frequent traveler will enjoy keeping precious photos in this elegant silver pocket frame. Personalization is available.

For the Golfer

This monogrammed leather golf score card holder features a clip to securely hold tally cards.

I love classic golf shoes for men, and these are timeless and elegant.

These golf ball whiskey chillers are just too much fun!

And so are these golf socks!

For the Road Warrior

My husband travels every week for business, and he swears by Tumi’s Carry-On 4 Wheeled Garment Bag. Personalization is complimentary.

I bought him these Tumi journey pouches for Christmas… perfect for maximizing precious carry-on space.

For the Businessman 

I love buying my husband whimsical ties for holidays, and this one from Ferragamo is perfect for Valentine’s Day! This one from Vineyard Vines is fabulous too, and it is also available for boys.

Cufflinks are always a great gift idea, and these love knots (available in silver or gold) are perfect for your Valentine. These are another option and are monogrammed free of charge.

My husband loves his Mont Blanc pens, and Overstock currently has some on sale!

Gadgets

As a technophobe, I will never succumb to these Apple AirPods earbuds, but my husband cannot live without them!

This retro Polaroid Originals camera is much more my speed, and makes a really fun gift.

I bought this meat thermometer for my husband (a grill master) for Christmas and he says it is the best one he has ever had!

Accessories & Grooming

Not everyone has the time or desire to needlepoint a custom belt for their significant other, so this Etsy company has come to the rescue! Needlepoint belts are 100% customizable! They won’t arrive in time for Valentine’s though, so for more timely options try these and these.

I typically do not like cologne on a man, but Acqua di Parma’s Colonia is divine. This classic scent was introduced in 1916 and was a favorite of Cary Grant and Gregory Peck.

The Art of Shaving has the most elegant shaving accessories including this shaving set.

These beautiful leather dopp kits are handcrafted in the USA and have received over 6,000 rave reviews on Etsy!

This sleek bifold wallet is the perfect size and is available monogrammed.

Clothing 

Neiman Marcus is having a huge sale on cashmere, and these sweaters are just $115!

This vintage-inspired tennis sweater is pretty fabulous.

Fun and whimsical heart socks, love these!

FOR WOMEN

Perfume is always a favorite Valentine gift, and I couldn’t resist the chic anniversary edition of one of my classic favorites, Fracas.

Paris by Yves Saint Laurent is another favorite, and its rose bouquet is perfect for Valentine’s.  I also recommend anything from the Jo Malone Red Roses Collection. Pair the candle with these darling pink heart matchboxes.

I have been obsessed with the Valentino heart collection ever since seeing Amanda Brooks wearing this dress.

For less of a splurge, you can’t beat these darling red heart pajamas and this heart sweater.

This multi initial heart pendant necklace is so romantic, and this one is available with diamonds.

Jewelry from the Elizabeth Locke collection is certain to become an heirloom treasure. You can tour her exquisite home here.

Rebecca de Ravenel has added heart drop earrings to her collection, just in time for Valentine’s!

I collect heart shaped Limoges boxes, and you can find inexpensive vintage ones on eBay.  This one is only $30!

If you are looking for non-toxic makeup, 100% Pure is the best. I own practically every shade of their Lip Glaze. It is extremely moisturizing, perfect for kissable Valentine lips!

Baume de Rose has become a cult favorite, and with good reason… it is fabulous! It is very long lasting, I have had my jar for over a year.

Yves Saint Laurent has issued a limited edition “Love Notes” lipstick just in time for Valentine’s Day!
