Lake Pajamas Pima Long-Long Set

Lake

$128 at Lakepajamas.com

“I gifted my sister a set of nice pajamas last year and now I’m eyeing this pair from Lake Pajamas for myself. It comes in festive prints like heart patterns and red stripes, and the soft Pima cotton means they’ll be breathable to wear later while also feeling warm enough to snuggle up in now.” —Lindsey Greenfeld, senior shopping editor

Abercrombie Essential Mid-Rise Wide-Leg Sweatpant

Abercrombie & Fitch

$60 at Abercrombie.com

Lululemon Swiftly Tech Long-Sleeve Shirt

lululemon

$78 at Lululemon

“I still wear my circa 2015 Swiftly Tech Long-Sleeve workout top from Lululemon in 2025, but I wouldn’t mind adding a new one to my collection, particularly in this Valentine’s-inspired pink hue. It’s my go-to for Pilates classes, jogging, and layering under a sweatshirt on cool days, and it features breathable, sweat-wicking fabric and a flattering waist-length cut.”—Maggie Horton, shopping writer

Baggu Medium Nylon Crescent Bag

Amazon

$52 at Baggu.com

“My sister got a Baggu crescent bag for Christmas this year, and I immediately wanted one after seeing how much she can fit inside. I like that it has a thick, adjustable strap, so it could be worn as a shoulder bag or crossbody, which makes me think it would be good to travel with — a cute and practical Valentine’s Day gift.”—Alex Nelson, senior shopping editor & strategist

Practical Gifts for the Hard-to-Shop-for Valentine

Leatherology Bifold Wallet

Leatherology

In Good Taste A Dozen Rosés Wine Advent Calendar

In Good Taste

$110$99 at Ingoodtaste.com

“I received the brand’s Christmas advent calendar and instantly became obsessed with its decadent little wine bottles, which contain a little bit more than a standard-size wine glass. It had a few of the rosés featured in this box, including that spicy jalapeno-infused pour.”—Laura Gurfein, shopping director

Hatch Restore 2 Alarm Clock

$170 at Amazon

Mandy’s Artificial Tulip Bouquet

$20 at Amazon

“I’m a huge fan of flowers, but unfortunately, when my husband buys them for me, they go outside on the patio because we have a cat, and I know the smell of most can be toxic for them, especially if they’re allergic to pollen. So this year, I told him if he wanted to get me flowers to gift these artificial white lilies. One, because they’re my favorite flower, and two, I can have them sitting on my desk all year long without them wilting or endangering our beloved feline.”—Toni Sutton, shopping writer

Esther Perel Where Should We Begin Conversation Cards

$40 at Amazon

Rhode Glazing Milk Essence

Rhode

$32 at Rhodeskin.com

“My skin has been really, really dry this year, and, unfortunately, it’s starting to look it, too. Because I don’t feel my best when my skin isn’t on point, I’m hoping it will drink up this hydrating skin milk and plump up like a freshly baked glazed donut (IYKYK). Plus, it’s been on my wish list for over two years now, and there’s no time like the present, er, Valentine’s Day.”—Alyssa Grabinski, celebrity shopping writer

Orebella Perfume Trio Gift Set

Ulta

$120$90 at Ulta

Abbott Lyon Pearl Huggie Hoop Earrings

Abbott Lyon

$70 at Abbottlyon.com

“Flowers and chocolate are nice, but jewelry lasts a lot longer. I already own and adore one pair of Abbott Lyon huggies, and now I have my eye on this pearl-encrusted set. Coated in 18k gold-plated sterling silver, these huggies are water-resistant (I shower, work out, and sleep in mine), and they add just a pop of bling to your daily ‘fits.”—Madison Yauger, shopping editor

Lush Posh Chocolate Gift Set

Lush

$44 at Lush.com

“My man in finance is extra stressed and works a ton, so I’m planning a night in with this set. The shower gel doubles as a great little bath product, and then I’ll use the massage bar on him. I already know he loves the chocolatey scent, because he ‘borrowed’ my Posh Chocolate lotion last time we went on vacation together. It’s sweet and indulgent, but doesn’t feel too overpowering.”—Neha Tandon, shopping editor
