Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

We love the typical heart-shaped chocolate boxes and blooming flower bouquets, but we have even more top Valentine’s Day for her that she’ll love.

Whether the pink box with a big, glitter bow is for your girlfriend, your mom or even for you (treat yourself, am I right?), it can sometimes be difficult to know what to add to your cart. Especially, if you or the woman in your life simply has everything.

Well, this isn’t your typical gift guide. Filled with practical, everyday items that they’ll come to love or one of the most sought-after items we’ve seen, you’ll find great comfort in knowing we’ve cut out all the work for you.

Bookmark this page — seriously. We’ve tested, researched and sought out the best gifts for women you can buy, as most of our recommendations have standalone reviews and testing notes alongside them. Essentially, we curated a one-stop shop so you can shop to impress.

Below, find the 57 best Valentine’s Day gift ideas for women, from luxe bedsheets to boho-chic plant subscriptions. And, be sure to check out our roundup on the best anniversary gifts and the best luxury gifts for women for even more.

Let’s start off with the basics — flowers. But, with Proflowers, the bright, fresh blooms are nothing close to basic.

Its curated Valentine’s Day shop, which includes the You’re Precious Bouquet above, is a lovely option that any woman in your life will cherish (and likely post on Instagram).

Another fine choice for Valentine’s Day — jewelry. This dainty 18K gold necklace is perfect for everyday wear and is less than $100, making it a lovely Valentine’s Day gift on a budget.

Plus, BaubleBar is one of our favorites for both fine jewelry and statement jewelry.

This Valentine’s Day gift guide would be incomplete without a mention of Godiva’s fan-favorite, mouth-watering chocolate box. For a sweet splurge, the woman in your life will cherish these chocolate delights.

How dreamy is Lunya’s Washable Silk Set? The matching duo in this cranberry color is simply ideal for Valentine’s Day for everyone on your list — yourself included.

Not to mention, Lunya has other just-as-amazing picks to choose from.

How luxurious does this Women’s Waffle Bath Robe from Magic Linen look? Treat the woman in your life to a spa-like ensemble that’s soft and lightweight, gently exfoliates the skin after a bath or shower and comes in six colors to choose from.

JamesAllen.com is especially known for its beautiful diamonds, and its lab-created diamond earrings are no exception. Plus, at James Allen, its lab-created diamonds can save you up to 30% off compared to earth-created diamonds — and you’re still giving quality.

Get the Our Place Always Pan that we reviewed. It’s absolutely gorgeous, will replace eight traditional pieces of cookware in your kitchen and will make anyone inspired to cook more.

Plus, Our Place recently came out with a new pot that everyone’s talking about. Both make lovely items to gift for newlyweds or to include in a wedding registry, too.

I’ve been living in Cozy Earth’s Lounge Shorts for months. It’s probably one of the most practical and cherished options on this list, especially when paired with the matching Lounge Tank and Pullover Crew — both of which I’ve also been wearing non-stop.

Whenever I wear a black romper or bodysuit, Kendra Scott’s Elle Gold Drop Earrings always complete the look. They’re a perfect size, have a traditional vibe and accentuate your look to the nines.

More flowers! Gift the woman in your life any one of BloomsyBox’s dreamy bouquets. The shop is one of our favorites for ordering flowers online, too. With its curated Valentine’s Day selections, she’ll instantly love the fresh blooms.

Meet the pajamas that everyone’s talking about right now. I practically live in them and they always make you look chic and put together. Plus, the button detail is gorgeous and makes you want to unwind for bed right after work.

Offline by Aerie has some of the coziest and flattering pieces out there, especially its Fleece Super Flare Pant. They fit like a glove, are lightweight and great for working out and running errands. Everyone should experience these, TBH.

After brewing a fresh cup of Donut Shop’s blend in my Keurig, I always take my ‘V’ monogrammed mug out of my cabinet. It’s one of the most practical and personalized gifts I’ve been given. Not to mention, it’s one of Anthropologie’s merchandise manager’s top 30 gifts from the company.

Luxe and dreamy bedsheets can be pricey, which means that the woman in your life likely won’t purchase them for herself. The Brooklinen Luxe Core Sheet Set is one of our favorites and they’ve truly changed the sleeping game ever since I started using them.

As one of the brand’s bestsellers, the Quay Coffee Run Sunglasses are the oversized and designer-inspired sunglasses of my dreams. For $65, they look way more expensive. Not to mention, the quality of Quay is unmatched for accessories.

It’s time we turned you on to a new swimwear brand. Andie has some of the most flattering, classic styles that fit especially well on the bust and hips. This espresso color is delightful (and is also so in right now), that the woman in your life would be excited to receive — along with the matching bottoms, of course.

With hotel-like sheets comes another sleep essential — a comfy blanket. I’ve recently started using my Bearaby Cotton Napper and, after using other weighted blankets, this is by far the most breathable. And, its chunky knit texture looks stunning as an end-of-the-bed throw.

If your gift recipient loves to cook (or, is simply fascinated by quality, restaurant-like ingredients), Brightland should be on your radar. I’ve been enjoying The Essentials Capsule, which is currently sold out, but you can purchase The Duo olive oil set and The Pair vinegar collection.

As a California-based brand that’s all over Instagram, they have delicious flavor combinations and recipes to pair with each of its products. I use the olive oil for cooking and dipping bread into, along with each vinegar as a salad dressing or part of a marinade.

Not everyone has a robust morning routine, but the Five-Minute Journal makes the perfect gift for someone who does. I write in mine every morning and what’s great about it is how it’s undated; if you miss a day, you don’t have to worry about wasting or skipping over pages.

Plus, there are three sections to fill out in the morning: gratitude, what would make the day great and a daily affirmation. In the evening, there’s a section for filling out three amazing things that happened today and how the day could have been better.

My Nespresso Vertuo Plus is, by far, one of the best gifts I’ve ever received. Ideal for any coffee lover or new homeowner, this set comes with the Aeroccino Milk Frother which makes your homemade brews even more ravishing.

Plus, it’s a great idea to pair the Nespresso with some glass mugs and extra pods.

It may sound ridiculous to gift someone a product with ‘Bum Bum’ cream in its title, but it’s just so good. I picked up this product a year or two ago at Sephora and it’ll last you for months. It smells like a tropical island and is perfect for a beach lover or self-care pamperer.

Robes are a typical gift, but the Brooklinen Waffle Robe is far from average. The waffle texture makes it feel spa-like, regal and breathable. I’ve been wearing mine for weeks and it’s the perfect throw-on for after my showers and for getting ready at my vanity.

I’ve worn my Spanx Faux Leather Leggings for years and they’re one of my favorite pieces in my wardrobe. They can be dressed up or down and are perfect for the girl that wears leggings all the time.

Plus, Spanx released a new collection of its bestselling faux leather leggings, if interested in exploring fun, new colors and patterns.

I can talk for hours about how much I adore the Vitamix 5200 Blender — it’s just that good. Not only can you put in whole fruits and vegetables inside its container, but its blades are so swift that they can heat up soup. It’s a great, splurge-worthy gift for a new homeowner or someone who’s always in the kitchen.

Looking for a sentimental gift for the woman in your life? Look no further than the Lovebox, the trendy, TikTok-famous spinning heart messenger that connects with a paired smartphone app. Whenever a message is sent, the heart will spin and you’ll have a morning pick-me-up or sweet thinking-of-you inside the box.

Glossier’s Ultralip Lipstick is one of my favorite lip products and one that truly complements a natural, everyday look. It’s a perfect, affordable gift for any girly girl or makeup lover.

A tip on shades? ‘Lucite‘ (a soft peony pink), ‘Fete‘ (a watermelon red) and ‘Trench‘ (a toffee brown) are my top three favorites.

As you can see by the smile on my face, I absolutely loved Sur La Table’s online cooking class. If you’re looking for a do-together gift you can enjoy with your mom, girlfriend or loved one, it’s a lovely ‘something different’ idea that has plenty of yummy recipes to choose from.

I’ve been using my T3 Whirl Trio for weeks and, after years of swearing a wand never creates the natural, choppy-looking waves I see all over Pinterest, I was proved wrong.

The Trio comes with three unique sizes you can switch depending on the look you’re going for. It’s a great, quality gift if you’re on the hunt for a good splurge. Plus, the brand’s Twirl Trio is fabulous, too, if a traditional curling iron is preferred — my hair has never looked bouncier!

As seen on Pinterest, Tieghan Gerard, the name behind the popular Half Baked Harvest blog, has a cookbook. Ever since I was gifted this, I’ve been making countless of her recipes, including homemade pancakes and penne vodka.

For anyone who loves cooking and baking (or, is simply a self-declared foodie who loves looking at beautiful food photography), this is the absolute perfect gift.

AVRE’s Infinity Glide Sneaker has become my favorite neutral athleisure sneakers. They’re sustainable, cushiony-comfortable and make the perfect gift this year.

Classic slip-ons are classic for a reason, and Thousand Fell has some iconic styles with a subtle pop of color on the back, if desired. And, they’re a great $100 gift.

Even serving as a lovely gift for yourself, Papier’s Good Vibes Notebook has the grooviest print, of course, much like the brand’s other selections.

For a budget-friendly gift that is cute and charming (no pun intended), Little Words Projects’ bracelets are a must. I have three of them and love stacking them for an everyday, simple look. With so many personalization options, it’s the sentimental and dainty gift that is sure to be adored.

When I graduated college, my sister gifted me a Tory Burch Leather Tote and it’s a gift I was instantly excited over. A splurge, for sure, it’s a durable bag with beautiful straps that’ll last for years of commuting, traveling and sporting to brunches.

Ideal for anyone who’s obsessed with painting their nails, Essie’s Expressie line is the best on the market. I have upwards of 10 shades on my nail polish rack and it’s the only non-gel collection that’ll actually remain chip-free on my nails for up to two weeks.

Great for commuters or anyone who loves tall boots, Hunter’s Rain Boots are likely something your gift recipient wouldn’t purchase for herself. I’ve had my gray pair for nearly five years and they’re great to pair with dresses and jeans alike.

You can never have too many pairs of sunglasses, and with Ray-Bans’ classic Aviators, you won’t need more than one pair. I’ve had mine for years and they’re super delicate and match any outfit. Plus, they’re great to gift all year round.

As a product on my to-test-soon list, the Dyson Airwrap Styler is adored by many influencers we’ve spoken with, and for a good reason — it’s the top product that truly creates a salon-like blowout. For any lover of hair products and what’s trending now, it’s a suitable option.

For less than $15 on Amazon, I immediately purchased this four-pack of claw clips and it’s one of my most-recommended items, for sure. Not only are they super trendy but they’re great for sweeping your hair out of your face.

If the woman in your life is obsessed with all things TikTok, this is the gift for her.

I’ve heard of Agua Bendita’s swimwear from social media and they’re soon to be tested and reviewed. Known for its fun, beach-minded prints, quality design and flattering fit, any woman would appreciate high-end swimwear to add to her collection.

The Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer is a great gift idea that’s been seen all over Amazon. For one, it makes styling hair super easy, and we’ve seen it populate all over the place, especially during Prime Day.

Does the woman in your life live in leggings? If so, she’ll appreciate the much-talked-about pair of lululemon Align High-Rise Pants. They are the brand’s most popular selection, alongside dozens of other styles we rounded up.

I’ve been using my set of weighted dumbbells far before quarantine hit and they’re a must-have for anyone who swears by at-home workouts. A set including 3 lbs, 5 lbs and 8 lbs of weights is recommended by Anna Kaiser, Shakira’s personal trainer, who dished out the best dumbbell sets to buy.

I absolutely adore my Adina’s Jewels Initial Necklace as it’s one of the daintiest pieces in my collection. I have my boyfriend’s ‘m’ initial on a chain and it’s great for mothers to feature their child’s initial, too!

Mejuri is one of the best retailers for dainty, gold jewelry that’s affordable and akin to fine quality. I haven’t been taking my gold rings and earrings off since I received them and there are so many options to choose from. The Honey Ring is a well-priced option that looks exquisite when paired with gold earrings and other accessories.

If you’re a devout follower of NYPost Shopping, you know meal kits are one of our most favorite things ever, with HelloFresh being a top brand. We’ve tried HelloFresh for months and can’t get enough. It’s one of those ‘I’ve-always-wanted-to-try’ bundles that make a scrumptious gift.

Yes, even the best gifts have to do with sending a spit sample in the mail. I recently shipped mine and am currently awaiting my 23andMe results. It’s a great gift for anyone who’s interested in familial ties and ancestral history. You’ll have access to a whole network of people, too!

Some people are perfectionists with the brightness of their smile, and CO. by Colgate is a new, effective option that comes with a pen to literally paint on which teeth you’d like to focus on. No more wasting whitening gel. No more uneven brightening.

I first tried Gucci’s Bloom perfume from a Sephora sample and my mom immediately added it to her wishlist. That said, it’s a heavenly floral perfume that smells fresh, clean and feminine. It’s a gift option if the person you’re shopping for needs a new scent.

I can’t stop wearing my L.L Bean Boots in the fall and winter and, even though I’m not a serious hiker by any means, they’re great to throw on if I have the urge to find a local trail. They were my go-to pair for walking miles on my college campus in the rain, slush and sleet, too.

I find great solace in turning on my salt lamp that sits on my bedside table. Whether I’m about to crack open a new book or just want to create a zen environment in the evening, it’s what I turn to. It’s great for anyone who loves revitalizing their space.

I’ll admit it — I’m one of those girls who uses an ice roller every morning to depuff. If your gift recipient uses them as much as I, The Skinny Confidential Hot Mess Ice Roller is an elevated gift option, thanks to its extra-large size and grip.

And yes, the ice roller is curated after the top-rated ‘The Skinny Confidential Him & Her‘ podcast.

As a self-proclaimed bookworm who loves the classics (thanks, Rory Gilmore!), this six-volume set from Jane Austen is a sweet, thoughtful option that she’ll adore — and store on her bookshelf. Personally, ‘Pride & Prejudice’ and ‘Emma’ can’t be topped.

My mom gifted me these freshwater pearl earrings from Zales a few Christmases ago and I always reach for them when I want a match-with-everything accessory. They are of fine quality and look preppy, chic and minimal.

What’s not to love about fun pool floats? This retro phone pool float from Funboy is the perfect Instagrammable option for anyone who finds peace in swimming in the summer.

And, they’re great quality. I’ve been lounging on mine the entire summer and they add so much spice and flair to your poolscape.

I’ve had the Kindle Paperwhite for more than a decade and it’s a no-frills, classic option that’ll get you reading more. Plus, Kindle Originals are too good to skip out on.

Sure, you may enjoy holding a physical copy of a book, but you can adjust the light settings (and wear blue light glasses) to make your reading strain- and glare-free.

Baked by Melissa’s cupcakes are surely a sweet treat. It’s a unique gift option that’s trendy, fun and delicious. Plus, they have a birthday cupcake box to celebrate with, which is one of the company’s bestsellers.

I’ve only had the urbanite-famous treats in NYC, so gifting a box of these, especially for suburban gals, is a sweeter-than-sweet surprise.
