What to look for in the best Valentine’s Day gifts for myself
An indisputable fact? No one’s going to get you a better present than you can. So, why not consider Valentine’s Day your opportunity to scoop exactly what you’ve been coveting? Maybe it’s a spa experience that’s imbued with meditative meaning (hello, cold plunge!), or a Tom Ford fragrance you’ve been longing to try (we’ve got just the pick). Perhaps this is your opening to splash out on a pair of luxury shoes you’ve been eyeing. No matter how you treat yourself on Valentine’s Day, it’s like a love letter to yourself.
Our fave Valentine’s Day gifts for myself 2024:
Witch New York “The Lovers” rose candle
Valentine’s Day isn’t only about romantic love. And nothing says self-love quite like a divine candle that looks as good as it smells. An intoxicating rose scent featuring labdanum, frankincense and patchouli is housed in a striking red vessel is the perfect indulgence you scratch that “something I want, not something I need” itch.
It’s called The Lovers — after the tarot card — and what better gift to you, from you? Because your one true love should be yourself.
Belacaro turtleneck
Bluer skies may be upon us in much of Canada but winter isn’t over yet, and this sumptuous, unisex knit will see you through to May in cozy style.
What says “I love me” more than a made-to-order knit, handcrafted in the softest baby alpaca, that you’ll literally have for a lifetime? (Not much.)
Tom Ford Oud Minérale
Where the earth meets the water — that’s the promise of Tom Ford’s Oud Minérale, a warm and spicy scent that’s steeped with salty oceanic elements.
Sprinkle in some supporting notes of pink peppercorn, fir balsam plus a sweet-earthy ambergris accord and you’ve got all the makings of your next signature perfume.
COS wide-leg fluid denim trousers
Satisfy all your style-meets-substance needs with COS’s easy, breezy jeans. It’s all the look of denim in a drawstring sweatpant form — pretty ingenious, no?
All you need is a ribbed tank and a pair of loafers (we’ve got you, just ahead) to come across looking fluently cool.
Tiffany & Co. Tiffany HardWear Micro Link Ring in Yellow Gold
When a piece of jewellery is so expertly crafted, so obviously eternal, it’s easy to justify a couple months’ worth of rent money on it.
Such is the case of Tiffany’s new HardWear Micro Link Ring, an 18k yellow gold band that’s made up of statement gauge links. Worn on its own or stacked with your other jewellery box faves, it’s a piece you’ll literally have forever.

Seriously: The RRR Facial, that uses buccal massage and microcurrent to snatch and sculpt, is a celebrity favourite, coveted by A-listers like Kourtney Kardashian and Nicola Peltz Beckham, for good reason.

Loewe Oregano Liquid Soap
Buy yourself the bougie hand soap and actually use it — we dare you. Beyond its positively divine scent (like that of a Mediterranean herb garden wafting in the summer sun), Loewe’s Oregano Liquid Soap looks equally stunning perched over your sink.
Skin-nourishing ingredients including aloe vera and jojoba oil are an added bonus.
Burberry Warped Houndstooth Wool Blend Sweater
We’re smitten with this Burberry sweater guaranteed to go the distance in your rotation.

You know those highly aesthetic home TikToks from impossibly cool Scandinavian girls, their stunning apartments strewn with where’d-they-get-that bric-a-brac?
This glossy stoneware vase from Danish brand Ferm Living gets you one step closer to that effortless dwelling dream.
Araks Chloe Underwire Bra Stem
Forget too-tight lingerie with harsh cut-outs and all-over mesh (won’t someone think of our bits?!). Araks’s cool-girl approach to underthings goes all in on the sexy but skips the male gaze design codes.
