(And don’t forget to check out our guides to the best jewelry gifts and date-night outfits, too.)
“Taylor Swift’s been rocking pieces from this affordable, female-founded brand on repeat lately, and as a massive Swiftie, I had to try out a few of the styles for myself. It’s hard to pick a favorite, but I’m really into this toggle necklace at the moment. It’d make a perfect gift for any fan of the pop star’s — or anyone with great taste in jewelry, for that matter.” — Elana Fishman, Page Six Style Editor
“If Cozy Earth is good enough for Oprah, it’s good enough for me. These bamboo joggers are insanely soft and comfortable and have become the only pants I wear when traveling. When on the plane, I pair them with the brand’s bamboo lounge T-shirt and zip hoodie to have breathable, comfortable layers that look first class from the couch to coach.” — Barret Wertz, New York Post Digital Group Commerce Editorial Director
“I love cooking and baking, and I try to spend as much time as I can thinking of fun new recipes. This little cocotte is the perfect gift with a little Valentine’s Day flair. You can use it for dips, sauces, eggs, single-serve desserts and more!” — Tori Schneebaum, Page Six Photo Director
“I’ve never been a big fan of body scrubs, but all that changed when I found this hydrating Kopari formula. I’m amazed at how silky soft my skin feels after using it, and it’s become a big part of my weekly beauty ritual. (It’s also one of my go-to gifts, along with the Kourtney Kardashian-loved Organic Coconut Melt.)” — Hannah Southwick, Page Six Commerce Writer/Reporter
“I’m a firm believer that the Dyson Airwrap is a foolproof gift for any lady in your life. The product has been described by many a reviewer as life-changing, which helps justify the hefty price tag. It’s definitely at the top of my list this Valentine’s Day!” — Emily Selleck, Page Six Reporter
“I’m probably the last person to discover Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream, but good lord, this stuff is great. I have very dry skin that get especially parched in the winter, and Magic Cream is, well, magical when it comes to restoring moisture and imparting a glow. It’s quite expensive, however — which is precisely what makes it a solid present pick, especially when paired with the matching serum in this sweet little gift box.” — Elana Fishman, Page Six Style Editor
“These slippers are a New York Post reader favorite for a reason – they are just about the perfect pair to wear around the house. Comfortable and durable enough for all-day wear, but also lightweight and compact enough to throw in a travel bag for those of us who don’t like to go barefoot in strange places.” — Barret Wertz, New York Post Digital Group Commerce Editorial Director
“To say I’m a fan of Monica Vinader hoops would be putting it mildly. I’ve practically lived in them for the past year or so — and while I definitely have my eye on a few new pairs from the royal-loved label, my current favorite still looks pristine despite frequent wear.” — Hannah Southwick, Page Six Commerce Writer/Reporter
“Yup, I hopped on the bandwagon with these drops — but honestly, the hype is well-deserved. After noticing I looked a little too pale during one of my Zoom meetings, I ran to Sephora to purchase these, and let me tell you: They did not disappoint. I layer them under my foundation — or concealer, if I’m going for a more natural look — and it adds this warmth to my face that makes people think I came back from a Caribbean vacation. The best part is that it has peptides, so it boosts my skin’s elasticity and supports healthy barrier function.” — Sophia Melissa Caraballo, Page Six News Editor
“As a Williamsburg girl, I’m a longtime fan of Catbird and love supporting a local business. I’ve had my eye on this ring for a while; it’s such a dainty piece and the perfect gift. Pearl and diamond detailing also always reminds me of Ariana Grande’s unique (and stunning) engagement ring.” — Emily Selleck, Page Six Reporter
“What could be better than cuddling up with a super-plush blanket on Valentine’s Day? I’m obsessed with my Oprah-approved Cozy Earth joggers and although I don’t have any of their bedding yet, there are quite a few items on my wish list. As someone who can never have enough blankets on the sofa (ask my family), this ultra-luxe faux fur throw ticks all the boxes for me” — Kristin Contino, Page Six Style Writer/Reporter
“I have been buying and rebuying this mask/moisturizer nonstop for the last three years. My skin tends to get very dry during the winters. (It reaches a point where the sides of my nose crack, and it’s just painful and annoying.) This is the only thing that honestly makes it feel better. Although you can use it as a mask for 10 minutes before washing it off, I prefer to use it as an everyday moisturizer. It layers perfectly under my makeup and my skin always feels quenched.” — Sophia Melissa Caraballo, Page Six News Editor
“It’s so cheesy, but all my boyfriend wants for Valentine’s Day this year (or so he says) is a handwritten card. Since it’s such a simple ask, I went all out and got personalized stationery for both him (the Boulevard Personalized Stationery) and myself. I also have a feeling that he doesn’t have a slew of his own stationery to use for other occasions, so it’ll go to great use!” — Caroline Blair, Page Six Reality TV Reporter
“Aupen, the Singaporean brand behind the under-$500 “It” bags you’ve likely spotted on Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez, recently expanded into jewelry with a collection of earrings. And just like its purses, the pieces look far more expensive than they actually are. You can’t go wrong with any of the styles for V-Day gifting, but I especially love this pair, as you can wear them multiple ways: as simple studs, as an ear jacket or with the detachable drop stacked right behind the stud, à la Emma Stone.” — Elana Fishman, Page Six Style Editor
“Do you ever just want to smell absolutely irresistible and sweet? This perfume is the answer to your prayers. Personally, I love a good vanilla-scented perfume, and this is the only one that stays on throughout the day and actually has people asking me why I smell so good. I tend to buy travel-size perfumes — but with this one, I bought the travel size, used it up in about two months and went back to buy the bigger size with no regrets.” — Sophia Melissa Caraballo, Page Six News Editor
“My partner started getting us little fill-in-the-blank books for special occasions early on in our relationship, and I didn’t realize how much I would come to appreciate them. Looking back on fond memories and reflecting on how much we love each other really puts petty arguments into perspective. If you haven’t started writing down things you love about your partner, make this the year you do.” — Barret Wertz, New York Post Digital Group Commerce Editorial Director
“In my book, dainty rings are are the LBD of jewelry: versatile and classic. Regardless of your Valentine’s style, this KBH gem makes a great gift. Whether I’m wearing it on its own or stacked with other styles, I consistently get compliments.” — Hannah Southwick, Page Six Commerce Writer/Reporter
“Everyone is talking about the Stanley cup, but this water bottle is even better with a cooler aesthetic. It’s dishwasher-safe, comes in six different colors and the design will be sure to set you apart from the rest.” — Tashara Jones, Page Six Reporter
“I received this version of the novel from my mom for Christmas, and it would make a beautiful V-day gift for any book lover in your life. As you read through the story, there are special envelopes that contain handwritten letters from the characters. It’s so fun to discover them and adds a new twist to an otherwise familiar story!” — Kristin Contino, Page Six Style Writer/Reporter
“I am such a sentimental girl, and having a gift with a loved one’s handwriting just seems so sweet to me. If I had a boyfriend and they gave me this, I would cry.” — Julia Remillard, New York Post Senior Social Media Marketing Manager
“I don’t know anyone who doesn’t love a good pair of sweats — and leave it to Daily Drills to drop the comfiest pair in a color that couldn’t be more perfect for lounging around on Valentine’s Day. My favorite thing about Daily Drills sweat sets is that they can be worn during an extensive Netflix binge (i.e. a “rot girl” day) or over a bathing suit at the beach. They work for everything, and the quality is always unmatched. I just know they’re going to last forever.” — Kelly Laske, Page Six Social Media Editor
“Is it really a special holiday if you don’t have a matching set of pajamas to go with it? I’m beyond obsessed with this set, especially because I’m super-picky about patterns as well as how they actually feel. I’m always on the hunt for chic pajamas that I can wear both on holidays and every day, and to me these are perfect.” — Caroline Blair, Page Six Reality TV Reporter
“A candle goes a loooong way. I am always in need of a new candle, and finding fun ones is the best. This makes an easy and great gift for V-Day.” — Julia Remillard, New York Post Senior Social Media Marketing Manager
“This Fig.1 serum caught my attention because it’s a retinol for the body — which I hadn’t been using until now. After just a couple weeks of slathering it on my neck and chest, I’ve noticed much softer skin and improved texture. Some retinols can be harsh, and this one is noticeably gentle and feels hydrating on my sensitive skin. Best part? It’s affordable!” — Kelly Laske, Page Six Social Media Editor
“I’ll never say no to a new pair of sunglasses, and if you have a sunnies fan in your life they probably need a pair from this celeb-fave brand. I’m usually a cat-eye fan, but I’m trying to expand into some different shapes this year — I loved how these looked on Kourtney Kardashian!” — Kristin Contino, Page Six Style Writer/Reporter
“I know it might be a little pricey, but for someone who loves flowers, one arrangement will last well over a year and continue to smell good!” — Astra Viola, Page Six Anchor/Producer
“There is nothing I love more than a spa day, and a little self-care goes a long way for Valentine’s Day! There’s no better way to prepare for the special day than with one of Equinox Hotel Spa’s packages. The Glass Skin + Bright Eyes is a personal favorite, but you can’t go wrong with any of them.” — Tori Schneebaum, Page Six Photo Director
“Who doesn’t love cake? And what’s better than a heart-shaped one? My birthday is on Valentine’s Day and let me just say, this gift is on my list. This makes a forever-lasting gift that is both sweet and unique.” — Julia Remillard, New York Post Senior Social Media Marketing Manager
“One of my favorite skincare brands that I love to use — which also happens to be created by my best friend — is T Bazi. It has transformed my face and I never go a day without using it; plus it smells so good, you’ll feel like you were at the spa!” — Astra Viola, Page Six Anchor/Producer
