Love is all around this February! Whatever your status, you can always rely on Rustan’s for the finest gifts that make the heart skip a beat. Celebrating with a partner? Or how about Galentine’s with your besties? Color the season with fun and affection by surprising loved ones—or yourself—the most thoughtful Valentine’s Day gifts. Here’s what you can find at the country’s premiere department store:
Make it last
Let love shine by gifting what your partner has been eyeing for a while. Don’t mind the splurge—it’s all worth it!—and make moments time can never erase. For men with an appetite for adventure and style, watch jaws drop when they unwrap a new Montblanc watch. Got a guy who dons classic dapper fashion? Get him the Montblanc 4810 Automatic Chronograph 43mm in Blue; or opt for the Montblanc Tradition Manual Winding 40mm in stainless steel case.
For the ladies, make their day sparkle by reuniting them with their best friend: diamonds! The Margherita collection by Damiani features a sunburst, floral pendant in graduating pavé diamonds set on 18k white gold. Gift the whole set that comes with a necklace, bangle, ring, and earrings for a complete drop-dead-gorgeous look.
Matchy and on-the-go
For couples who like to keep it chill and casual, don a street look with a Pedro Del Hierro sweatshirt and a classic New Era cap. More into kicks? Upgrade each other’s sneaker game with HOFF. Coordinated with the new Metro Man and Metro Woman Sneakers, a collection inspired by grand locations in different cities around the world, such as Lexington and Shinjuku for men and Waterloo and Solina for women.
Another option for the on-the-go duo, go for Bluetooth earbuds and headphones from JBL and Philips. Take music anywhere, from hitting the gym together to sharing each other’s favorite songs while apart. It’s a lifestyle essential and an ideal gift for the month of love.
Celebrate the best
Who says Valentine’s Day can’t be with your besties? For the ladies who have always had your back, it’s time to say “I love you” with the cutest Galentine’s party. Start with a toast to friendship that surely lasts for all eternity—bring out celebratory champagne flutes from Luigi Bormioli and pop open a bottle. With a drink in hand, take selfies with your besties while rocking an irresistible pout, thanks to Stila’s Sheer Felice Liquid Lipstick or get your “eyebrows on fleek” with Anastasia Beverly Hills’ Laminated Look Brow Kit.
Upgrade from friendship bracelets to friendship bags with matching Coccinelles. The Zelda Shiny Shoulder Bag features an asymmetrical silhouette that’s both unique and eye-catching. Get it in pink and plan a girl’s day out—perhaps on a Wednesday? As Karen Smith says, “on Wednesdays we wear pink.”
Blood is thicker
Never forget where you came from—that’s what a family is all about. When it comes to love, you always go back to your first: your parents, your siblings, and relatives who raised and watched you grow.
For dads, grandpas, and uncles who love spending the day outside whether at the golf course or at the family beach house, gift Faherty. With a collection of tropical breeze shirts, plain short-sleeved polos, plaid long sleeves, and more, Faherty becomes a wardrobe go-to for the laid back type.
For moms, grandmas, and aunts, show appreciation by adding to their bag and shoe collection. A top pick is Strathberry. Known for its minimalist design and contemporary approach to luxury, collection pieces are easy to pair with any outfit. For shoes, check out Aquazzura—it has everything you need for any kind of woman, from the stylish tita who still rocks stilettos to the proud homeschool mom who swears by good quality sneakers.
For your Millennial or GenZ brother who’s making a name for themselves, help them stay on track with their goals by staying organized. Go for Knomo’s durable backpacks, briefcases, laptop bags, and carry-on luggage; then for wallets and accessories, check out Il Bisonte. Aside from keeping bills and cards properly tucked, the brand also promotes sustainability by exclusively using biodegradable materials.
How about sisters? It’s always fun spending quality time together and catching up while painting each other’s nails- Deborah Lipmann has a variety of hues; from shimmery pinks to pastels and bright neons. You can also catch a midnight romcom together while wearing Saturday Skin’s Yuzu Vitamin C Sleep Mask. Add more smiles when you gift a Self Portrait or Adolfo Dominguez dress, which your sister can use on special occasions—it would be like you’re her very own fairy godmother!
For the little ones, give the gift of creativity with Crayola washable gel pens and crayon sets. You can also opt for a cute bunny plush from Jellycat for your tot’s everyday companion.
Start with Y-O-U
You may already have all your loved ones jotted on your V-day gift list, but have you written your own name yet? There’s a saying, “you can’t give what you don’t have” so never forget to start with yourself. Love yourself and indulge in nice things this Valentine’s Day!
You may buy yourself flowers, but you can also wear it with Diptyque’s Eau Rose EDP- a fragrance that brings together the most unexpected accords naturally present in the rose. Complement this floral fantasy with Voluspa’s rose-scented candles while savoring Theo & Philo dark chocolates. Embrace your vulnerability and start journaling with your own favorite fountain pen from Montblanc. Finally, get your hands on Longchamp’s candy-pink bags available under the Box-Trot, Epure, and Foulonné collections.
