Scented candles 

Candles might sound basic but with loadshedding at an all time high in South Africa people are having more and more candle lit dinners making scented candles a great gift for valentines day. Add in a set of reed diffusers and some bath bombs and you have got yourself a nice bathroom grooming set. 

Satin pajamas

Everyone knows that girls love sleeping in style so a personalized sleeping kit will make the perfect gift this Valentines Day. Stay away from the colour red though because we are not trying to be too cheesy here, get neutral colours like white, nude shades, soft pinks or classic black. 

Polaroid camera   

The instant camera is a type of camera which uses self-developing film to create a chemically developed print shortly after taking the picture. Instagram has made these a popular accessory to create a 90’s inspired aesthetic so it will definitely work as a special Valentines Day gift.

Bluetooth Earphones 

Nobody and I repeat, nobody wants to be using wired earphones anymore so gifting a loved one with a pair of wireless earphones will be a highly desired gift. They might get a bit pricey though as the Apple AirPods retail from R2600 but there are other more reasonably priced options like the JBL tune wireless in-ear headphones so shop around before settling on a pair.  

Even though it might be a tough task to find the best gift for your partner this Valentines Day but hopefully the tis we have given you will make the task a bit easier.
