Valentine’s Day Gifts: For Her

February 7, 2013 in Fashion, Lifestyle

This time next week, lovers everywhere will be celebrating each other. Whether it is a grand, extravagant celebration or a small, modest evening at home – how you celebrate Valentine’s Day is as individual as you are as a couple. And let’s face it, when you’re with the one you love, you’ll have a great time no matter what.

As for my fiancé and I, we tend not to make a big deal of Valentine’s Day. We do however always make sure we spend the evening at home together, cook dinner and just enjoy each other’s company.

Earlier in the week, Melinda featured 5 great gifts for the special guy in your life and today I have 7 fabulous items that are all under $60 and that any woman would be grateful to receive on the most romantic day of the year.

1. Glasshouse Fragrances Candle from David Jones ($39.95)

Ask any girl what brand of candle they like and chances are Glasshouse will be mentioned. With a gorgeous collection of fragrances representing destinations all over the world, you don’t have to travel anywhere to feel like you’re far, far away. Bora Bora anyone…?

2. Diane von Furstenberg ‘Lock Heart’ iPhone 5 Cover from Shopbop ($39.84)

Changing your phone cover is like giving it a mini makeover. Shopbop has a fantastic range of designer phone covers, such as this adorable DVF one, that are much more affordable than a designer handbag. Which means you can change your phone cover a lot more often!

3. Sterling Silver ‘Baby Heart’ Necklace from Down That Little Lane ($55.00)

This simple yet stunning necklace would make a fabulous addition to your jewellery collection and is a piece that could be worn every day. A lovely way to carry your significant other’s heart with you.

4. Witchery ‘Abstract’ Scarf ($49.95)

Let’s face it, scarves are a wonderful distraction. They distract from a tired face, a bloated belly or even a stain from a certain little someone’s Vegemite toast. Witchery has a fabulous range of scarves and I absolutely adore the colours in this little number. A very versatile accessory!

5. Shabby Sisters ‘Turquoise Crowns’ Earrings ($48.00)

You can always count on Shabby Sisters for a classic and beautiful piece of jewellery. These gorgeous sterling silver and turquoise earrings are special enough to be worn on a night out yet simple enough to be worn with jeans and a white t-shirt.

6. Peter Alexander ‘Anchors’ Nightie ($59.90)

Peter Alexander sleepwear is like candy without the calories. Always sweet, always colourful, always a treat to receive. This little number is nautical and nice, perfect for when it’s time to retire to the captain’s quarters with your first mate. Ahoy there!

7. ModCloth ‘Letter Together’ Mug Set ($29.99)

As soon as I saw the name of these adorable mugs, I started humming the Jack Johnson song, Better Together. Obviously a play on that song title, this is a sweet gift that could be shared over a morning coffee with the one you love. “We’re better together…”

How do you celebrate Valentine’s Day? How do you leave hints for the gift you’d like to receive?

Stay Chic,
