One of my love languages is gift giving, which means I pride myself on showering the ones I love with the best of the best. So, now that Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, I’m here to help you show your partner just how much you love them.
No matter how long you’ve been together, here are my 5 gift recommendations for the perfect February 14. All at a different price point, it’s a foolproof list of gifts that are sure to make them swoon.
1. Sockerbit Gummy Candy

We all know that the fastest way to anyone’s heart is through their stomach and what better way to make it extra sweet than with candy? I can’t think of one. While chocolates are the go-to for many around Valentine’s Day, I’m a huge fan of gummies, particularly those from my go-to spot in Los Angeles: Sockerbit. It’s owned by the loveliest couple, Florence and Stefan — two founders I’ve bonded with many times over our candy addictions and entrepreneurial journeys. Beyond that, they truly do have the best assortment of Swedish gummies, licorice, marshmallows, and yes, even chocolates. And trust me, they’re not just any average gummy candy you can get at the supermarket. They’re far superior because, as Sockerbit shares on their website, “Scandinavians have an insatiable sweet tooth and take their candy very seriously.” Don’t worry if you don’t live nearby, though, because their online shop allows the magic to be sent right to you.
2. Pvolve Workout Class

While I can understand how this one may not be for everyone, sweating together does have proven relationship benefits. It can help boost intimacy, increase motivation, enhance mood, foster closeness, and even allow for emotional bonding. If working out together is something you enjoy as a couple, or if you want to try something new, I’m a huge fan of Pvolve. It’s a low-impact yet highly effective workout perfect for anyone, regardless of fitness level or gender. While I love the Pvolve in West Hollywood, there are locations all around the U.S. so you can get your hearts pumping ahead of a romantic night together no matter where you live.
3. Reflekt Complete Essentials Collection

For an option that won’t literally (but will figuratively) take your breath away, you and your partner will be obsessed with our Complete Essentials Collection. When I say I get so many people telling me their boyfriends or husbands now steal their skincare, I’m not kidding. It’s a luxurious collection of essentials that can be shared between the two of you for a gift everyone loves. It comes with our best-selling cleanser, brightening serum, sculpting face cream, smoothing eye and lip cream, Restorative Lip Balm, and a lightweight Tyvek bag to hold it all together (it’s so chic you can tie on a bow and skip any additional wrapping).
4. Romantic Dinner Date

No matter what stage of a relationship you’re in, a fancy dinner date never fails — nor does it go out of style. In L.A., I’ll forever be a lover of Felix Trattoria for an upscale pasta dish. There’s a window inside through which you can watch the pasta being made and a terrace out back for an extra special ambiance. In New York, The Corner Store is an American Restaurant (frequented by the likes of Taylor Swift) that’s definitely worthy of experiencing with someone you love. If you can score a reservation, it won’t be a fancy affair, but it’ll make for an unforgettable memory. Don’t forget to cap off the evening with their Samoa Sundae.
5. Relaxing Getaway at Calamigos or Troutbeck

February 14 falls on a Friday this year, which positions it perfectly for a romantic getaway, which happens to be one of my favorite gift ideas of all. Whether it’s a staycation for one night or a full weekend away, there’s just no better way to connect than unplugging and enjoying each others’ company in a special, distraction-free setting. For a retreat on the west coast, I absolutely adore Calamigos Ranch in Malibu, nestled in the Santa Monica Mountains. Alternatively, if you’re looking for something on the east coast, there’s award-winning Troutbeck in upstate New York. Both offer a number of luxuriously rustic suites for an always necessary dose of romantic relaxation with a variety of wellness offerings from spa services to meditation classes.
