Listen, if we’re going give Valentine's Day gifts this year, we’re certainly going to do it right. It's time to skip the store-bought roses that’ll droop in two days, the convenience store-bought card and the wrong chocolate.

Though 2023 just begun, Valentine's Day will be here before you know it. So, if you’re shopping for your wife, your daughter or your boyfriend (or any loved one on your list), have no fear. (Related: best Valentine's Day gifts on Amazon)

So, whether you’re looking for the most beautiful flower delivery services or wondering where to grab affordable fine jewelry online, we covered all the bases so you can shop less and love your loved ones more.

Spread the love with a practical gift she can take, well, everywhere — from yoga class and the grocery store to music festivals and drinks with the gals. The slim strap is adjustable to provide comfort with a little extra security, and don't even get us started on the pocket space (but seriously, we can't stop raving about it so we wrote up an in-depth review).

Of course, this edit would be incomplete without your traditional bouquet of roses. Out of all the options you can order from online, we believe the 1-800-Flowers Blooming Love Bouquet is your best value (and equally as breath-taking at the same time). Plus, it’ll send in this stunning red vase that screams Valentine's Day.

Looking for an activity for your S.O.? Check out AllTrails, a premier destination for making memories in the U.S. Namely, one of its most popular romantic trails is the Cliff Walk in Newport, Rhode Island. Did someone say weekend trip?

While traditional roses are great and all, Rosepops is unique in that it delivers preserved roses for your S.O. to enjoy. The brand has several other options on its site, however we love The Lucky 13 Preserved Rose Arrangement that’ll sit beautifully on her desk or dresser.

For the woman in your life, the Eberjey Gisele Long PJ Set is one of the most luxurious matching options we’ve found. Not only is it one of Oprah's Favorite Things but its sustainable silhouette and palette of colors make it an extraordinary comfy gift she’ll adore.

Some women love diamonds, but most enjoy coffee. Treat your wife or mom to barista-style brews each morning with one of our favorite coffee machines: the Nespresso VertuoPlus Coffee & Espresso Machine. We love how it comes with the Aeroccino Milk Frother, too (a game-changer, to say the least).

How unbelievably festive is this Kate Spade New York Love Shack Heart Purse? For less than $200 right now, it's not only picture-perfect for Valentine's Day but will be cherished as that bright pop of red to an all-black or all-neutral outfit for any time of year.

If you haven't tried Vosges Haut-Chocolat's Exotic Truffle Collection, you’re missing out big time.

Treat the woman in your life to something everyone and their mother is raving about: the Dyson Airwrap. We reviewed it and can see what all the hype is about, namely for its myriad attachments and salon-sleek blowout every time it's used.

Our jaws nearly dropped when we laid eyes on the Dorsey Georgina Lab-Grown Sapphire Drop Earrings. With an elegant design and stunning yellow center, it's the perfect everyday pair that's so versatile to style. In short, she’ll love them.

When we think of Valentine's Day, we think of lingerie — plain and simple. This luxe robe from Victoria's Secret is all we could ever ask for, too, thanks to its gorgeous lace detailing and subtly sexy charm.
