As someone who loves Love, making romantic plans for V-Day is always a favorite activity of mine. But what to get the Valentine who seemingly has everything? Especially since the perfect gift for this occasion should be thoughtful, not overly extravagant, and something the recipient wouldn’t normally buy for themselves. I’ve been hunting down the most beautiful tokens of affection around the web lately, and am narrowing down the perfect gift for my love (and my bestie, my mom, and my sis.) Click through for my faves, and I’d love to hear if you’ve got any creative Valentine’s gifts ideas up your sleeves this year!
