Even if the woman in your life raises an eyebrow and gets that sarcastic look on her face whenever she sees men giving women the overdone red roses and chocolates on Valentine’s day, it is safe to say that she would still appreciate a gift on this day if it spoke to her.
Finding the right gift is all about understanding the habits and ways the woman in your life chooses to wind down, where her attention lies or what she does for fun. Rather than going for the usual gift that says cliché, go for the one that will show intuition and care. We want to help you find the perfect gift for Valentine’s day this year whether your love is into books or beauty.
The tech geek
If she loves her gadgets, then splurging on tech accessories is the way to go. From state of the art noise-cancelling headphones to tablet cases and mobile cases, you are sure to appeal to her inner tech geek.
The baker
From new utensils to silicon molds; new recipe books or one stylish apron, treat the baker in your life to the sweetest tools so she can continue to make the sweetest treats!
The fashionista
There are so many things you can buy your fashionista – clothes, bags, and accessories but you can go wrong with buying the wrong thing. Speak to her girlfriends or to a sales girl who has style, so you can buy your fashionista something she will love that is on trend.
The nesting body
When the love of your life is pregnant, then buying her things to make those nine months easier is the way to go. Whether it is buying her much needed maternity cocktail dresses for her to wear to formal occasions during her pregnancy or whether she needs days of pampering, make sure you really listen to what she needs at this crucial time in her life.
The beauty maven
From body lotions to perfumes, make up sets and spa treatments, if the woman in your life loves to unwind like a goddess, then go for sweet smelling products or a spa day so she can unwind in her favourite way.
The book lover
Whether she loves her Austen and Faulkner or whether she is into the contemporary McEwan and Barnes, buying her books with beautiful hardcovers is the way to go.
The dreamer
Even a dreamer with set goals and a strong spirit will have setbacks in her pursuit towards her goals. Books to help encourage her to never give up or books to understand the market she is trying to penetrate is a way of being helpful and totally romantic this Valentine’s Day.
The mama bear
When your love is the ultimate mama bear – crafting, making homemade baby food and cultivating an imaginative and fertile mind to your children with love, a lot of patience and time, then giving her the gift of time to spend doing the things she has put on hold, to take care of the children, is the best way of showing how much you value her.
