Valentine’s Day Gifts for Her (Hint, Hint!)

Looking for Valentine’s Day gifts for her? Look no further – we’ve got you sorted! Whether you’re looking for a gift for your loved one, or just keen to treat yourself, here is our ultimate list!

Attention reader: Wednesday is Valentine’s Day. Yes, the 14th of February! Maybe your partner is the kind of gal who is very much expecting a gift this year but you’re not quite sure what to get her? Or maybe she’s the kind of gal that isn’t expecting anything… but who doesn’t love a surprise gift, especially on THE day of love? Either way, here are some gifts we would get if we were you.

Nicole Rebstock Zelda Heels

Ok, you can’t really go wrong with any of the heels from Nicole Rebstock, but these little beauties are pure romance and perfect for V-day. Straight from the pages of European trends, Nicole’s sling-back emerges as a must-have this season. Featuring sleek rectangular block heels for a chic and minimal side profile and adorned with pearl buckles for an extra touch of decadence.

Nicole Rebstock Zelda – RRP $319

Wen & Yen Donuts

They say that the best way to get to the heart is through the stomach, and heck, Wen & Yen will certainly cement your love with their range of tasty treats. Located on the shore and in Titirangi they make delicious donuts, slices and special treats. BUT while they also make regular goodies, they also make gluten-free AND vegan donuts AND they taste incredible. If your love has special dietaries (or you do and you need a treat this v-day), get yourself to Wen & Yen.

Wen & Yen Treats start at $6

Our friends at Caci have clinic’s throughout the country and are the perfect gift for your special someone to book in for some well deserved self-care. Caci has facial and beauty treatments to choose from and products and their team of skin-specialists ensure you walk out feeling like you’re on another (peaceful) planet.

The Caker Cake Kit

Support our homegrown Queen of cakes and order a cake from The Caker’s store or choose from their cake kits.

Cake kits aren’t just any old packet cakes you might find in the grocery aisle (we aren’t judging, but way to feel fancy for the loved up occasion). Choose from coconut raspberry lime leaf, matcha cherry, flourless dark chocolate gold leaf and spiced carrot with salted caramel.
