Two more days and it’s Valentine’s. If you haven’t got your special someone anything yet, don’t you panic.

I have rolled up a shortlist that you can choose from for that perfect something to say how much your significant other means to you.

1.     InfinityLove Ring in Sterling Silver – silver jewelry pieces are very popular at the moment. Why not? They are affordable and lasts a lifetime. What better way to say you love someone than by giving a love infinity ring.

2.     Beaded Key Pendant  - this gift will surely give out the message that your significant other is the key to your heart. Surely that will melt anyone’s heart!

3.     Chanel Lip Gloss – nothing says sophistication than Chanel. This is super luxurious and is truly a welcome gift to anyone. Simply tres chic.

4.     NARS Dual Intensity Eyeshadow Palette – this is recently out in the market and if your lady is a beauty fan, you definitely will earn thousands of bonus brownie points.

5.     Chloe Love Story Eau de Parfum – this perfume kept me thinking about it for days since I smelled it at the shop and now I am contemplating on getting it – even though I don’t need any more perfumes for the next 5 years. It is sexy and seductive. I can seriously attest that this perfume has seduced me into buying it!

6.     Pearl Earring Stud in Sterling Silver – simplicity is beauty and it is not loud. Pear earrings have always been a symbol of love through out time. It is simply elegant.

Hope this round up has helped you decide what to get for your special someone.

If you are on your own this year, why not get something for your own. Showing a little love for yourself is always a good thing.
