VALENTINE'S DAY is just around the corner, and if you're looking for the perfect gift for the person you love then you've come to the right place.
Whether you're shopping for your spouse, fiancé, partner or pal, we've rounded up our 12 top gift ideas that are guaranteed to make them swoon.
Valentine's Day is celebrated on 14 February each year, and it's the perfect time to show someone special how much you care about them.
Not every couple buys gifts to mark the occasion, but if you do, we know that it can sometimes be tricky to find the right present.
Traditional Valentine's Day presents usually involve chocolates, flowers and cute teddy bears.
How to de-clutter if you have a beauty stash to last you a lifetime
While these are all still lovely tokens of affection to gift someone, we've found a few other unique options that can be just as heartfelt to give your Valentine.
From some stunning Pandora jewellery and the perfect designer perfume for those who want to impress, to must-have home treats like Le Creuset cookware and cosy weighted blankets if you're buying for a homebody.
Of course, flowers will always be a classic, and we've picked our best of the bunch (pun intended).

8. John Lewis Connoisseur Red Wine Glasses
- Connoisseur Medium Bodied Red Wine Glasses (Set of 4), £45 – buy here
Toast your relationship with some new wine glasses, and this set of four from John Lewis will last a lifetime.
We love their modern shape, with tall, thin stems and wide bowls, and the crystal glass feels high quality when holding and drinking from them.
This particular size and shape are designed to enhance the flavour of medium-bodied red wines such as merlot and tempranillo (although, of course, you can drink anything you like from them).
But if that's not your loved one's tipple of choice, there are other shapes to choose from in John Lewis's Connoisseur collection.
Why not gift these glasses along with a bottle of their favourite wine?
9. Dyson Airwrap Multi-Styler Complete (Refurbished)
- Dyson Airwrap Multi-Styler Complete (Prussian Blue/Copper) – Refurbished, £399.99 (Was £479.99) from eBay - buy here
If you're buying for a beauty lover, the chances are that a Dyson Airwrap might be at the top of their wish list.
In our eyes, this high-tech hair tool is a really impressive piece of equipment, but it doesn't come cheap, which is why it may be better to buy a refurbished Airwrap from eBay.
These models have been cleaned and reconditioned by a certified manufacturer to be as good as new, and come with a one-year guarantee – and you'll be saving £80 compared to buying a brand new one.
If you're thinking about splashing out, you can read our full Dyson Airwrap review here.
10. Hello Kitty Oodie
Hello Kitty Adult Oodie, £74 (Was £99) – buy here
If you're after a fun and playful yet strangely practical gift to give this Valentine's Day, we can't recommend Oodies highly enough.
Oodie came out top when we reviewed the best-hooded blankets, and they're perfect for cosy nights spent on the sofa watching a movie or bingeing a TV series together when it's cold outside.
Oodie has dozens of designs available but we love this adorable limited edition Hello Kitty design that has a perfect nod to the romantic occasion.
11. Simba Orbit Weighted Blanket
- Simba Orbit Weighted Blanket, £126.75 (Was £169) – buy here
Another great gift for enjoying relaxing moments at home is the Simba Orbit – one of our top weighted blankets.
Filled with lots of tiny but heavy glass beads, the weighted blanket cocoons the body to provide a snug and comforting sensation.
They're great for throwing over yourself when on the sofa or in bed, and have even been shown to help with stress and anxiety relief and aid better sleep.
This is a thoughtful present for anyone who enjoys spending time at home or values comfort and well-being.
12. YSL Black Opium Eau de Parfum
YSL Black Opium Eau de Parfum 50ml, £69 (was £92) – buy here
Of course, fragrance is always a lovely gift to receive, and if you're not entirely sure about her preferences the classic YSL Black Opium is a failsafe option.
With notes of black coffee, vanilla, white flowers and a hint of patchouli, it's a sensual and elegant scent that will never go out of fashion.
ANother bonus is that the YSL Black Opium is suitable to wear day or night. And if you need any more convincing, just take a look at the almost 20,000 five-star ratings on the Superdrug website alone.
