The Valentines Gift Guide For Her • LOVE, SEX & RELATIONSHIPS

Valentines Day, unfortunately is more of a commercialised scheme to convince us that in order to show we care we need to spend x amount of money on our loved ones. This isn't true, as all girls know (or at least should) that money does not buy love, however as it is a nice day to celebrate with your special someone it isn't a bad idea getting them something that shows you understand their interests and what they love by buying them a gift that reflects their personality. This is the secret to being good at gifts. The idea of being showered in red roses, teddy bears and chocolates, although sweetly romantic in films is all too cliche and overrated. What girls really want are personal gifts that mean something to them/you as a couple or something that they have hinted to you at multiple times and explained they liked. Can't remember what all those not-so-subtle hints were? Don't worry, I have a gift guide here full of ideas and inspirations for every type of girl from home accessories to fashion accessories, makeup to stationery, baking gadgets to technology gadgets, nail polishes to jewellery. It's all here, panic not, and it's all online so you don't even need to rush out and buy anything. Sit back and relax...
