What to Get Yourself for Valentine’s Day
Caitlin Timson
Valentine’s Day most often elicits visions of rose petal covered sheets and romantic dinners for two, but there’s a kind of love that we (dare I say!) enjoy celebrating even more: Self-love.
Sure, Valentine’s Day is a wonderful day to celebrate your romantic partner or even your best friends (where would we be without our ride-or-die crew?!), but this year, we’d like to encourage you to treat yourself no matter your relationship status. Whether it’s an indulgent luxury gift you’ve been eyeing for years (looking at you, Gucci wallet) or just your favorite sweet treat, don’t think twice about spoiling yourself with something a little extra special this Valentines Day season. It’s true what they say—the most important relationship you’ll ever have is the one you have with yourself. Keep scrolling for 11 of our favorite items to gift yourself this month.
