For Her A RED SWEATER — I know winter is running away quite fast but we still have the entire month of February to make do with our shawls, light coats and soft sweaters. Today, as women will be opting for a splash of red in their wardrobe, they will absolutely love a red cardigan or a sweater from their significant other. Why don’t you head over to Breakout that just announced its 50 percent off sale and buy a nice red cardigan or a light sweater for not more than Rs 1,245. RED SOCKS — nothing could be cuter than your girl wearing a cute pair of red socks that you gifted her on Valentine’s Day. Head over to the Shirt & Tie Shop that is on a 50 percent off sale and buy that pair for her. Trust me, she will love them. PERFUME — a strikingly hot perfume is a pre-requisite for making your woman happy on Valentines’ Day. I recommend Dolce & Gabbana’s Light Blue which would cost you not more than Rs 5,000. This fragrance is considered the most romantic perfume in the world for ladies. A BOOK — nothing says, “I love you,” more than a good book. Go for Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice to gift to your girl. The book is about love, romance, adoration and of course, pride and prejudice. CHOCOLATES — chocolates, like perfumes, are also a pre-req to gift to your lady. With so many options, try going with a bar of Toblerone. She will blow kisses at you with every bite she takes. STUFFED TOY — but of course, how can we not think of a cute stuffed toy for you leading lady. No matter what age she hits, nothing would say, “I love you forever” than a stuffed teddy. Go for a furry brown one with ribbons around its neck. It’ll give her something to cuddle whenever she misses you or even if she’s mad at you, one look at the teddy bear will melt away all her anger. COSMETICS — because women love dressing up and looking beautiful. As much as this item should’ve been at the top of the list, you don’t forget to purchase it for her. Go for Gigi Hadid’s Maybelline line complete with lipsticks and mascaras. FLOWERS — do not under any circumstances forget to buy a bouquet of red roses for her. It’ll be light on your pocket but impactful on her heart.

RED TIE & CUFFLINKS — gift your man something he’ll cherish forever. Head over to the Uniworth’s Shirt & Tie Shop and buy a gift box set especially for Valentine’ Day that contains a crisp white collar shirt, a red tie and metallic red and silver cufflinks. A CAKE — men love it when you cook or bake for them. Forget all those bakeries and cafes and make a cute cake for him. COLOGNE — don’t forget to buy a nice fragrance for him. Go with Essey Miyake’s Sport which will cost you not more than Rs 4,500. A RED PILLOW/ CUSHION — this has to be the cutest gift ever for a man.

Go with Lindor, Reese’s Buttercup or Quality Street. MUG — don’t forget to buy a cute mug with a romantic message for him. Every time he goes to work and has his tea or coffee in it, he’ll be reminded of you and how much you love him. Published in Daily Times, February 14th 2019.
