These earrings are gorgeous without being gaudy or breaking your boyfriend’s bank. Perfect of everyday, but would also look great paired with an evening gown and a sleek updo. Note to guys: You can never go wrong when you give us jewelry for Valentine’s Day.

I would be thrilled to get a new everyday bag, and this is the perfect go-to. You can wear black with anything and the strap is so easy to carry. This gift says that you have a boyfriend who knows you well, wants to simplify life, but in a stylish way.
