February has finally arrived, which means one of the most romantic days of the month is right around the corner, yes we mean Galentine’s Day and not Valentine’s. Duh.
February 13 is dedicated to celebrating female friendships in all their glory. No matter what your relationship status, the bond you have with your besties is even something worth celebrating every single day. Whether it’s supporting your life decisions, giving you company on your bi-weekly mani-pedi appointments, or all those times they’ve showed up in the middle of the night post your break-up, they’ve been there through it all.
So, it’s time to celebrate the most important friendships in your life and show them how much you care about them. It’s corny. It’s cheesy. And that’s what makes it great.
To make your planning as easy as possible, we’ve curated a list of gift ideas to give your girlfriends. From makeup must-haves and statement jewellery pieces to sweet treats and cozy PJs, there is something for every type of gal pal.
