To make sure she feels extra loved this year, we searched and uncovered the best gifts of 2021, and no doubt they'll put a smile on her face. From pretty jewellery pieces [3] to designer bags [4] and thoughtful trinkets, take a look at our top picks ahead.

Kitri Lorna Pink Striped Alpaca Blend Zip Collar Sweater

We want to lounge around in this cosy Kitri Lorna Pink Striped Alpaca Blend Zip Collar Sweater [5] (£95) all day, every day.

Diptyque Dancing Ovals Limited Edition Roses Scented Candle

Not only does this Diptyque Dancing Ovals Limited Edition Roses Scented Candle [6] (£56) smell incredible, but it also looks superchic.

Pat McGrath Beauty Crimson Couture Lip Kit

The Pat McGrath Beauty Crimson Couture Lip Kit [7] (£43) contains everything one needs to execute the perfect classic red lip.

Leo & Lumi Isobel Necklace

Diamonds are a girl's best friend on Valentine's Day, especially when they're lab grown stones that are ethically sourced, like one used in the Leo & Lumi Isobel Necklace [8] (£250). As a gift, this delicate piece is a sure win as it goes with anything, compliments a majority of outfits (well, minus roll necks, maybe), and looks beautiful on its own or layered with your favourite chains.

The Daily Sleeper Party Pyjama Set with Feathers

The The Daily Sleeper Party Pyjama Set with Feathers [9] (£255) is a bestseller right now, and it's not hard to see why. Lounging around the house has never looked so luxurious.

Gucci Soho Disco Leather Bag

No doubt she'll freak over this Gucci Soho Disco Leather Bag [10] (£865).

Georgia Louise Lift+Sculpt Butterfly Stone

The Georgia Louise Lift+Sculpt Butterfly Stone [11] (£68) isn't just shaped like a butterfly to look pretty, it actually perfectly fits the contours of your face to help drain and massage. It's both incredibly relaxing by working muscle tension and also great for lymphatic drainage.

Christian Dior Rouge Dior Valentine's Day Limited Edition Lipstick

How adorable (and utterly chic) is the Christian Dior Rouge Dior Valentine's Day Limited Edition Lipstick [12] (£33.50)? We've long been fans of this classic, richly-pigmented formula (which got an update for 2021 [13]), and for Valentine's Day, the brand engraved two of its best-selling red shades — Red Smile (shown here) and 999 — with tiny hearts and itty-bitty monograms, making this lipstick almost too special to use. Almost.

Neighbourhood Botanicals Dear Diary Lip Balm

Like giving a candy heart, but a whole lot sweeter (and more useful). Packaged in an adorable and whimsical tin, the Neighbourhood Botanicals Dear Diary Lip Balm [14] (£15) is inspired by the '90s (can't you tell?), even featuring a strawberry bubblegum scent (although it's much more sophisticated and subtle than the lip balms we slathered all over our lips in secondary school). The formula is also way more luxurious than anything we used as teenagers. Natural, vegan, and cruelty-free, the silky balm is made up of jojoba oil, shea butter, rice bran, and castor oil, as well as a plant-derived form of glycerin.

Jo Malone London Scarlet Poppy Cologne Intense

Housed in a ravishing red bottle, the Jo Malone London Scarlet Poppy Cologne Intense [15] (£134 for 100ml) is inspired by the poppy flower from the inside, out. The brand has combined poppy with notes of iris, barley, tonka bean, and fig, making this creamy floral that's both sparkly and sweet.

Nue Hoops

Jewellery can be a tricky thing to gift, but British brand Nue Hoops makes it easier by offering charms, hoops, and chains that you can mix and match together. With offerings in gold and silver, and charms that range from delicate hearts and rhinestone-studded stars to vintage-inspired coins, there are truly options for anybody's tastes. Shown here is the Becky Charm [16] ($46) and Electra Gold Hoops [17] (£45).

Sabah Alpine Shearling Babas

Step your WFH game with these stylish and oh-so-cosy Sabah Alpine Shearling Babas [18] (£190), which are handmade my craftsmen in Turkey and lined with locally-sourced shearling.

My Lady Garden Galentines Workshop (Bouquet Making)

All you need is a pair of good scissors (and adult beverage, if you please) and the company will deliver all the materials to your home the day before, contact free, and a Zoom link sent one hour prior to the workshop. All flowers will be delivered on the previous day, Friday the 12th.

Mela Weighted Blanket

This Mela Weighted Blanket [20] (£1099) will keep you warm and comforted. It's the perfect thing to grab for a night of Netflix.

Floral Street Neon Rose Eau de Parfum

Floral Street Neon Rose Eau de Parfum [21] (£60) is basically like gifting a gorgeous floral bouquet, but instead of getting tossed a few days later, it will last months and months (maybe even years) after Valentine's Day. The fragrance is inspired by the notion of what a rose would smell like if it was neon in colour, resulting in a clean, crisp floral scent.

Missoma London Lucy Williams Gold Roman Arc Coin Necklace

One of the top sellers from the brand, the Missoma London Lucy Williams Gold Roman Arc Coin Necklace [22] (£145) is very versatile: it can be worn on its own or layered any of your other favourite gold necklaces.
