Of all the holidays, Valentine’s Day is the hardest to find gifts for, in my experience. Whether you’re buying for a partner, a best friend, or even treating yourself (which I highly recommend and will certainly be doing this year), the stakes feel higher—it’s the day of love, after all. I also get slightly concerned about breaking the bank when I just survived the holidays. This year, rather than stressing, I took it as a challenge to find gifts that strike the perfect balance between thoughtful and stylish. Spoiler alert: Nordstrom really delivered.
After spending what felt like a lifetime scrolling through the site, I came across so many hidden gems that I couldn’t keep to myself. And the best part? Everything I found is under $150. Whether you’re after cozy loungewear, beauty must-haves, or little luxuries that feel more expensive than they are, I’ve rounded up my favorites. Let’s dive into the chicest V-Day gifting options, no matter who you’re shopping for. PS: You won’t believe the hack I included that helps you own Maison Francis Kurkdjian’s Baccarat Rouge for just about $100. You’re welcome.
