Best Chocolate Valentine for Her: Hotel Chocolat Valentine's Chocolate Box

Skims Lounge Cotton Fleece Zip Hoodie

Pale Barbie pink shows no sign of slowing down as a trend in 2024 — a fact Skims has gotten in early on with a brand new selection in just that shade. Add a sweatpant or short to this cotton fleece zip-through for the full spoil.

Best Beauty Valentine for Her: Beautifect Box

For the woman who loves getting ready as much as actually going out, a Beautifect box could be your next big Valentine’s Day purchase. These fold-out boxes have ample room for storing their favourite cosmetics and brushes and feature an in-built lit mirror within. It’s a Hollywood vanity made portable. Just the thing to take on that romantic weekend away you have planned.

Fortnum & Mason Chocolate Flowers

Fortnum & Mason has combined two of the occasion’s most unswerving pillars — chocolates and flowers — into one perfect sub-£20 gift. A delicately formed bouquet of spring blooms from daffodils to daisies, they’re made of the food hall’s finest milk and dark chocolates. Fair play Fortnum & Mason, fair play.

Best Jewellery Valentine for Her: Missoma Jelly Heart Gemstone Ring

From the brand that brought her the heart necklace as worn by Margot Robbie in Barbie comes another must-have for girly jewellery fans: the jelly gemstone ring in chunky purple (or pink, or blue) quartz with bevelled gold-plated mount. Good enough to eat.

Best Fragrance Valentine for Her: Chanel Coco Mademoiselle

One of The Perfume Shop’s best-sellers, particularly come special occasions like this one, Chanel’s Coco Mademoiselle is a fine fragrance for the advent of spring thanks to its fresh and feminine amber scent profile.

Lelo Tiani 3

In a flexible design that suits all body shapes, the Tiani 3 massager vibrates to enhance penetrative vagin*l sex with its groundbreaking SenseMotion technology and dual (whisper-quiet) vibrations for both participants to enjoy. With up to eight settings and two hours of play, this brand bestseller is sure to be a memorable gift that shows your partner just how much you value their satisfaction.

Monica Vinader Diamond Essential Bangle

Jewellery has always been a definitive choice for gifting on Valentine’s Day, and it likely always will be. This year, opt for something simple and beautiful, made to elevate a simple daytime outfit of denim and cotton. Our vote is for this Monica Vinader bangle in gold vermeil, completed by a single sparkling diamond.

Boux Avenue Lingerie

Another suggestion, another lingerie brand to buy her, Boux Avenue is one of your failsafe high street choices prioritising both aesthetic and affordability. Hit those clichés with a black mesh set bedazzled with embroidered hearts.

I Still Fancy You Cookie

Everyone knows the need to hear those three little words is universal, but we’d say these four words are just as important. Let them know you still fancy them with a neatly iced cookie by Baked By Steph, with just those words front and centre.

Astrid & Miyu Star Pendant Necklace

You can always count on Astrid & Miyu to come up with simple creations that tick every box and this perfect star is another slam dunk. Available in gold, rhodium or rose gold-plated sterling silver with a tiny cubic zirconia at its heart.

CurrentBody Skin LED Light Therapy Mask

Whilst it might look like something from the prop table at a West-End production of The Phantom Of The Opera, this CurrentBody LED mask is actually an innovative light therapy treatment. Combining anti-ageing red and near-infrared light, this bestselling gadget is clinically proven to reduce the visibility of wrinkles by 35 per cent after just four weeks, whilst remaining effortless and comfortable to wear thanks to its flexible silicone construction.

Olivia & Pearl Pearl Earrings

A twist on the traditional pearl earring from Olivia & Pearl, this “power” pair of studs are built to show pearl on both sides of the lobe. A perfect present for a partner you’re feeling particularly soppy about this winter.

Night at Kimpton Fitzroy

A diamond in the literary quarter of Bloomsbury, the Kimpton Fitzroy boasts some of the most spectacular suites in the city. With views over Russell Square and four-poster beds, free-standing bath tubs in curtained bedroom alcoves and decadent co*cktails in Fitz’s bar, it’s one of the more incredible hotels to stay in this Valentine’s Day.

Lisa Says Gah Ribbon Long-Sleeve Tee

Coquette-core is here, with ribbons being gleefully affixed to everything from bicycle handles to pet dog’s ears. Something a little more practical? Ribbons on a shirt, as provided by It Girl brand Lisa Says Gah.

Eberjey Pyjamas

The wearing of pyjamas is not a competition, but if it was then your partner would be easily winning with her new set of Eberjeys. Made from a tencel modal material that feels more like clouds and available in a series of gorgeous colours, these really are god’s gift to nightwear.

Prada Re-Edition Bag

It’s been a few years of Y2K revivalism but there still looks to be a lot of juice left in the trend, which is why Prada’s Re-Edition of the 2005 nylon icon probably remains at the top of her list. If you have a big budget for this year, this could be your One.

All Things Pink Rosé Wine Case

There was a long, sad period during which rosé wine was poorly regarded. That period has well and truly come to a close. Now the pick of the most fashionable quaffeurs, pink grape becomes the star of the show in this mixed case of six bottles. An elevated choice that stays in the soft, feminine theme of a traditional Valentine’s gift.

Adidas Gazelle Bold Sneakers

The suede retro ‘90s sport silhouette persists as the sneaker of choice in 2024, making the Gazelle a top pick for the woman in your life. For the new year, the ‘Bold’ with stacked, leg-lengthening sole best fits the bill. Also available in red and blue or classic black.

Mejuri Patra Hoops

“As worn by Reneé Rapp” is probably all she needs to hear to turn her onto these perennial Mejuri favourites. A subtle, angular twist on the round hoop of the ‘00s, this pair in gold vermeil are almost guaranteed for everyday wear.

Bloom Pink Confetti Bouquet

While dozens of red roses are a great way to go for those with partners who love the theatrical, some people will prefer something a little less effusive. For them, opt for this beautiful “Confetti” bouquet by Bloom, which is large without being overwhelming, and has been arranged to perfection by the brand’s specialist florists.

Elizabeth Scarlett Hot Water Bottle

Next up for personalised gift goddess Elizabeth Scarlett: a hot water bottle cover in soft, golden embroidered velvet. Hearts, starfish, moons and the word ‘Love’ all gather together in a personal soft furnishing that could not be more perfect for Valentine’s.

Cutter & Squidge Mini Chocolate Love Hamper

We do love ahamper, and while you can buy bundles of almost anything nowadays, we have a soft spot for the simple luxury of a food and drink basket, as perfectly demonstrated by Cutter & Squidge here. A miniature version of its more bulging siblings, this hamper contains chocolate shortbread, strawberry meringue, drinking chocolate and a special hot chocolate ‘spoon’.

Ganni co*cktail T-Shirt

“Have a nice day!” one of the T-shirts in Ganni’s new collection insists. And who couldn’t with a martini, some oysters and a brand new lipstick? Still loved by women everywhere —and in extended sizing too — a Ganni tee is a choice for the ages.

Smythson Leather Heart Keyring

Minimalist keys are being usurped by bouquets of keyrings again, meaning an abundance of huge teddy bear accessories and trinket tags bought on holiday. Add to the chaos with this Smythson heart clip-on, a fun middle ground between novelty and nobility.

Bag & Bones Flower Neon Light

PSA: if flowers are to her taste, then make sure you’re buying her a real-life bouquet. Having said that, there’s no harm in adding something a little more interesting to your basket, too. How about another flower — this time a tulip — in the form of a neon light? Head to Bag and Bones via Flannels for yours.

Eres Lingerie

If you've hit every one of the lingerie destinations for women and still aren't convinced she'll like any of the fussy lace and mesh, then let us introduce you to Eres' soft spandex set with broderie anglaise trim. A simple, comfort-lead fit that takes cues from the label's genre-defining swimwear.

Neom Organics Pillow Mist

Few things feel more nurturing than a good night's sleep, and Neom Organics' Pillow Mist provides exactly that. Combining 14 pure essential oils for ultimate tranquillity, simply have your giftee spritz their pillow, lay back, and breathe.

Diptyque Roses Candle

One of Diptyque’s most popular scents, the Roses candle was made for just such moments as these. Buy one in pink ceramic for a special Valentine’s Day twist on a luxe failsafe.

Tiffany & Co. Personalised Heart Tag Necklaces

When in doubt, get their name on it. Tiffany’s classic heart tag necklace is a subtle day-to-day piece that they’ll treasure, and with the added benefit of personalisation, it’s a women’s jewellery win for a partner who’s yet to experience the simple luxury of Tiffany & Co.

Gilda & Pearl Babydoll

Silk and marabou feathers make up the luxurious silhouette of this babydoll, a well-earned classic by vintage lingerie specialist Gilda & Pearl. Buy in black for the ultimate retro Priscilla effect (and a pink one could double as an Austin Powers Fembot costume come Halloween).

Maison Balzac Martini Gift Set

Shaken, stirred or muddled with a slug of olive brine: however she takes her martinis, she ought to be enjoying them with verve. That’s where Maison Balzac’s partyware comes in, offering everlasting olives on the inside of two martini glasses and as the flourish on the edge of an olive tray.

Fruity Booty Silk Trio

Already one of our top lingerie brands to buy her, Fruity Booty has made itself even more indispensable for gifting needs with its new “Cherry Trio”, comprising of garter, face mask and classic cherry embroidered thong. Also available in pale pink or pistachio green.

Moet I Love You Champagne

Moët & Chandon champagne goes a long way towards fulfilling your gifting needs: it’s fabulous, it’s relatively affordable and it’ll be deeply appreciated after a short stint on ice. This Valentine’s special goes one better with a keepsake tin branded with those timeless three words.

Harvey Nichols Chocolate Euphoria Collection

This Euphoria box of chocolates calls itself a centrepiece, and it would be imprudent to argue. At 795 grams, this is a multi-layered, multi-tiered masterpiece in extravagant chocolate-themed gifting. There are 72 separate chocolates on display here, from milk to dark and ganache to truffles. The means to a Valentine’s Day gorging of the gods.

Five Minute Journal

What can five-minutes get you? If you believe the latest science on habit making and breaking (and we do), then the answer is really quite a lot. Even this small amount of time can change your outlook, as demonstrated by Intelligent Change and its journals, which require only five minutes and a few bullet points of your time per day to return tangible results.

Tired Faace Face Mask

Faace doesn’t make hundreds of products. Instead, it focuses on a series of perfect face masks for different problems: periods, menopause, and this one: tired skin. Infused with caffeine and vitamin C, it’s a remedy fix that reduces puffiness, wakes the skin and draws moisture from the air to combat dryness.

Cake and Flowers Delivery

Cake and flowers are more quintessentially ‘Valentine’s Day’ than St. Valentine himself, and that’s why Cake & Flowers is a bit of a one-stop shop for February 14. Pastry chef Michael Kwan and florist Philip Hamond pool their hard-learned superpowers into one bundle that can be picked up (at The Dorchester) or delivered to your London address.

Laduree Macarons

Macaron (noun): not to be confused with the far less chic coconut macaroon your nan used to buy to go with a cuppa tea. Rather, Parisian patisserie Ladurée's pastel perfect light bites designed for treating those closest to you on special occasions.

Ugg Chillapeak Boots

Snow and beach bunnies meet Yeti in this new release by footwear brand of the moment Ugg. The Chillapeak uses the hyper-popular structure of the best-selling mini platform and adds some of that gorgeous sheepskin to the outside, making it somewhat of an ultimate shoe for 2024.

Assouline Barbie Coffee Table Book

A comprehensive look at the doll that dominated pop culture in 2023, Assouline’s Barbie celebrates a feminist icon from her origin in the 1950’s to her representation by Margot Robbie in the present day. Sublime!

Bloom & Wild Flower Subscription

Ordering your partner flowers is a simple yet timeless way to show you care. Bloom & Wild's flower delivery box service makes this an incredibly stress-free gift to choose, with a broad selection of letterbox flowers, specific bouquets or a monthly subscription service to choose from. The latter will keep the Valentine's Day spirit going well beyond February for a gift that truly keeps on giving.

Pandora Crystal Heart Ring

We didn’t foresee the rebirth of Pandora as a cool brand, but then we didn’t have the reemergence of 2013 style on our bingo cards either. In reality of course, both are back, and that includes unironic costume jewellery such as this crystal heart ring.

Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser

Hotel Chocolat's iconic Velvetiser takes the brand's famed flaked hot chocolate and your choice of milk to create a rich, cloud-like delight at the press of a button. Finished in a chic metallic copper tone and accompanied by a set of two ceramic cups, the Velvetiser is luxe, decadent, and deeply indulgent… and if that isn't the spirit of Valentine's, then we don't know what is.

Furbish Linen Pillow

No matter how many cushions she already has, chances are your girlfriend wants more. Find here one of our new favourites in the maximalist genre: a squiggly trim throw cushion in red and pink linen. Even you can’t get annoyed when new additions look like this.

Slip Silk Eye Mask

A must for Holly Golightly, a silk eye mask helps shut out the world during rest while preventing fine lines and hair frizz. Slip specialises in such things, offering snag-free shades like this one. For best results, combine with a silk pillow and silk scrunchies.

Biscuiteers School of Icing Gift Voucher

Teach a man to fish and yadda yadda yadda…but teach them how to bake a couple of ice biscuits? That’s a recipe for a lifetime of perfect baked goods. Biscuiteers has got you on this one: if there’s one place we’re trusting as an authority on decorating cookies, it’s them.

Disco Mushroom Candle

The disco ball hasn’t had a moment like this since the 1970s: the mirrored squares that make anything sparkle in the light can be found on pretty much everything right now. Included in that? This mushroom-shaped candle pot, complete with candle itself.

Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé Petal Robe Champagne

Want to bag a bottle of champers but unsure which to opt for? One of our favourite champagnes is by Laurent-Perrier, especially this rosé edition in a limited edition petal design bottle. Ideal for filling the Valentine cliché quota, if that’s your bag.

Coco De Mer The Seed

Sex toys for women range from the sublime to the ridiculous, and Coco De Mer’s luxury collection of gadgets are certainly the former. This little vibrator, christened ‘The Seed’, uses ten different vibration settings and a pincer-like design to target the cl*tor*s and deliver some truly leg-shaking results.

Tekla Cotton Terry Bathrobe

The plushest of the plush soft furnishing purveyors, Tekla, makes towel —and toweling robes — worthy of the gods. This suggestion falls into the latter category, showcasing a classic vintage stripe that wouldn’t look out of place on Sean Connery in 1964 nor Sydney Sweeney in 2024.

Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia Eau de Parfum

Anything Gucci makes for a great present, period. But for Valentine's Day, fragrance is a romantic option that will delight both your giftee's senses and their dressing table. Using the iconic Flora pattern, which was originally illustrated by Vittorio Accornero, the painted bottle of Gucci's Flora scent has a vintage design that coalesces perfectly with the classic scent inside it. Focusing on the Gardenia flower, other wispy floral notes include jasmine, blossom, and brown sugar, all finishing in a fresh and timeless scent.

House of Sunny Vegan Leather Handbag

Lemon yellow is going to be a big, big thing for 2024, and House of Sunny is ahead of the curve with its new vegan leather sling bag in the sunny shade. Vintage chic on one side, practical on the other (with in-built pocket mirror and detachable coin purse), this is a powerhouse of a handbag to fill the fashion girlie’s quota.

Skims Cotton Rib Tank

Everyone’s idea of essential is different, but we think we’re hitting a pretty big demographic when we suggest that a set consisting of a cotton rib tank top and pair of knickers is at the top of many a list. We love Skims’ (and so will she).

Vivienne Westwood Orb Necklace

It may be seeing more of a renaissance than usual, but Vivienne Westwood’s orb jewellery is perennially In. No need to worry that this necklace will go out of style anytime soon, then.

Juicy Couture Velour Straight Leg Joggers

Just as thetracksuithas made its way back into the menswear zeitgeist in recent seasons, so too has it found fans in womenswear. While there are full sets available at eye-watering prices from some of the most prestigious fashion houses around, there’s still no beating a good old Juicy Couture velour jobbie.

Marshmallow Puff Cushion

One of the interior design trends we can get behind, the marshmallow puff texture can now be found on quilts and cushions alike. This example, via Urban Outfitters, favours a square throw cushion, and an opulent shade of bronze terracotta.

Gymshark Barbell Cherries Top

Don’t look now, but the coquette trend just made it to the gym! The cherry continues to be the graphic of choice for tees and sweaters in 2024, though Gymshark’s contribution has a little extra something. Its pure white long-sleeve top (perfect for workout or rest) casts a simple pair of cherries as barbells.

Treatwell Giftcard

With thousands of nail salons, hairdressers, massage parlours and myriad other beauty spots all over the capital, it can be hard to choose from them — let alone keep on top of all of your appointments. Treatwell makes that easy, keeping all appointment-making and salon-searching in-app.

CJW Cotton Beauty Queen Pyjamas

Pyjamas have come a long way from the era of scratchy separates to be worn with an oil lamp. Now, you can furnish loved ones with sleepwear as decadent as this “Beauty Queen” set by CJW, with illustrated icons of beauty products scattered throughout. And not a stitch of itchy wool in sight!

Baby Deer Phone Case

Drop and shock proof phone case. Check. Butter-wouldn’t-melt baby deer? Also check. Let her have the best of both worlds with tough ‘n’ tender pick from Skinnydip’s impressive range of phone cases (we’ve tried and tested them: they protect brilliantly).
