Switch off now if you’re a Valentine’s Grinch…
I for one, am certainly not. I love any excuse to show a bit of love through gift giving and Valentine’s Day is no exception. Don’t get me wrong, you don’t have to buy gifts – some of my most memorable Valentine’s gifts haven’t cost a penny. But, if you’re looking to gift the man in your life something special this year, here are my 5 top picks for 2018.
1. HERSCHEL SUPPLY CO. BLACK BACKPACK – £70
You really can’t go wrong with anything from Herschel. This backpack is one of my favourites – perfect for a city break or weekend away!
2. ATARI FLASHBACK 7 CLASSIC GAMES CONTROL – £50
For the gadget lover, this old-school classic is a guaranteed winner. Challenge him to a game of Frogger or Space Invaders and unleash your inner geeks.
3. THE BACON RECIPE BOOK – £12.99
You can’t buy happiness, but you can buy bacon and that’s kind of the same thing right? Need a gift for the bacon lover in your life? ASOS has got you covered…
4. EDIBLE WHISKY COCKTAIL SELECTION – £15.99
Us girls aren’t the only ones with a sweet tooth, and this delicious selection of edible cocktails is the perfect gift for whiskey drinkers who like to explore outside the barrel. I need to find myself a prosecco version ASAP…
5. AESOP GROOMING KIT – £50
Is his skin-care routine non existent? Or maybe he’s a moisturising maestro? Whatever his preference, taking a scroll through the grooming section of Mr Porter is bound to fill you with gift ideas. I love the look of their travel-friendly Boston Grooming Kit.
So there we have it, a handful of my top Valentine’s picks for him. What are you planning to gift your better half this Valentine’s Day? I’d love to hear your ideas in the comments below!

Great idea! I think I’m going to buy a backpack and a grooming kit for my boyfriend. I hope he does the same! HAHA!
These are great gift ideas but in the absence of a Valentine this year (still 2 weeks to go so who knows) I don’t have to buy anything for anyone else. I do love that retro Atari set though as it reminds me of childhood vacations spent amusing ourselves at home.
the edible cocktails look aweosme (I’m a whickey fan myself!) so I might have to look into this – and maybe sneaking a few for myself to try 😛
I love your selection! I am getting him a weekend away this year just the three of us to recharge and reboot!
These presents are good for me too 😉 Love that backpack!
I’m single at the moment, so no one to buy Valentines gifts for this year unfortunately. But I do really love the look of that Bacon book – I love bacon anyway, and so does my brother, so maybe I’ll buy him that for his birthday later in the year! x
Love the grooming kit! This would be perfect for my husband, especially since it is travel size. We don’t really exchange presents on Valentines Day, just write each other a meaningful letter and then have a fancy dinner together 🙂
I think we could all use as many ‘gift guides for him’ as possible, haha! I like the look of the Aesop grooming kit – The Body Shop do some nice ones too if on a smaller budget.

What a fab Gift Guide, I really like the backpack and the Whisky Chocolates sound amazing.

Nice picks, grooming kits are always such a good idea
The edible whiskey and grooming kit are my favorites. I will see if they can be delivered before Valentine’s day
Great round up! Though I want the backpack for myself 😁.
Haha same! A Valentine’s gift for ourselves perhaps?
Lol at the bacon book 😂😂 this is a great idea, everyone loves bacon right? Whether it’s turkey or pig haha. And you’re right Herschel seems to be loved by a lot and I can see why they’re pretty spacious and have a cool sleek design. Thanks for sharing your guide! 💕

Isn’t it great? I had to include it! Thanks for your lovely comment x
Never mind buying for someone else the Bacon 🥓 Recipe book has got my name all over it 😂💋
To be honest I want most things on this list for myself! I think this is accidentally just a load of hints for my boyfriend…
My husband just got an old-school SEGA from his sibling for Christmas–I’m guessing he wouldn’t mind an Atari for Valentine’s Day! Haha
What a lucky man!
Well curated & I surely can assume this would help the readers plan their gift this Valentine’s! A request to have mercy on us too & share the gifts for “her” to solve our confusions too 🙂
I’m writing one as we speak! x
These are all such lovely idea’s which have also given me some inspiration x
Thanks for your comment lovely x
This is such a good idea, boys are sooooo hard to buy for!! Xx
Oooh love this. The bacon reciepe book is so good. Almost a selfish present so you get cooked lots of tasty things!
You’ve caught me out there…Exactly my thinking haha!
The aesop grooming set looks ideal for the man in your life and I like the minimalist packaging as well! Do you know if it is cruelty free by any chance? The whisky sweets look like a delicious treat as well!
Isn’t it beautiful, I love anything from Aesop to be honest. I’m 99.9% sure all of their products are cruelty free (except the shaving brushes!) x
What a fab gift guide! I love the look of the satchel, and the bacon book is a fab idea! Me and my husband don’t really do valentines day, I feel like Im missing out!
The backpack is one of my all-time favourites! Awh don’t be silly, it’s not about gift giving really – just appreciating each other.
Haaayyy I hope the love of my life is near me.. these are just great ideas for Valentine’s.
Thanks lovely x
Hubby would love the Atari games control haha! Hubby’s into photography now hence I’m looking for related accessories.
Thanks a ton for recommending the whisky cocktail selection. I never knew it existed and now it is going to be my perfect valentine gift for him 🙂
Awh that’s great news! Have a lovely Valentine’s x
You are Genious, I want half of that list for my self, all Herschel bags looks so well designed, I have to have this Atari game, and I love Whisky, so I wish I could try those treats, what does it say about me?
This is such an amazing gift guide! I have been struggling this year deciding what to get my man for V-day and this is so helpful. The AESOP grooming kit will be so perfect for him. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Thank you so much Cassie! x
