I’m the Queen of last minute purchases and if you are a lover of last minute gift buying too then this little guide is for you. If you still haven’t stumbled across the perfect gift, I’ve put together a little collection of my fail safe girly gifts. Lads, surprise your lady with them, ladies, surprise your Mum, your BFF or hell, just treat yourself. I’m a huge believer in self-gifting.
Pretty Flowers from Bloom and Wild
Flowers are a bit of a cliche but there’s nothing more instagrammable on Valentine’s Day than a bouquet of beautiful blooms. Rather than head to your local florist and remortgage your house to pay for a dozen roses, pop online to Bloom and Wild and let them take care of it. You can choose from the Juliet bouquet (a dozen red roses) or the more extravagant Cleopatra bouquet (18 red roses). Enter the code LUXURY15 for 15% off your order.
Every time I receive a package from Bloom and Wild a little squeal of excitement comes out. The boxes are designed to fit in the letterbox so your Valentine will receive them even if she is galavanting around during the day. Easy peasy. As you can see from the bunch I was kindly sent from Bloom and Wild, they are simply beautiful.
Flirty Fragrances for Her and Him
There are lots of lovely new fragrances out at the moment but I tend to prefer the classic brands rather than the celebrity endorsed ones. Hugo Woman is a no brainer and if you want to be really cheesy why not buy each other a his and hers set? The Fragrance Shop always have amazing discounts on classic fragrances so you can surprise your loved one without over spending.
It’s always nice to receive something sweet on Valentines and I have tried lots of chocolates on the run up to Valentines to bring you the very best options (for research purposes obviously). Godiva really are faultless when it comes to chocolates. Their chocolate boxes are pretty and satisfyingly rich. Discover the Valentine’s collection here.
If you want to push the boat out, check out Z Chocolat for the poshest chocolates around. They are pricey but these little mouthfuls of heaven are worth every penny. Just look at that packaging!
Rosie Huntington Whitely
I’m obsessed with the Rosie Huntington Whitely range. The underwear, the fluffy robes and the fragrance. I want it all!
Lovely Lotions and Potions
The Body Shop is the best place for beauty bits and the latest Smoky Poppy collection is perfect for Valentines. Pamper her with the sensational body butter or splash out on a luxurious Smoky Poppy massage oil.
A Cupcake for One
Last but not least is the cutest cupcake in all the land from Biscuiteers. I think this is the perfect Valentine’s gift for any lady in your life.
