I’m the kind of person that doesn’t necessarily wait for an occasion to gift something special. But when Valentine’s Day rolls around, I just can’t help but feed into the love-fueled frenzy! Here, I’m sharing a dozen gifts that have caught my eye—some of which have been flagged for follow-up since that last holiday marathon known as December. From fragrances to heart-festooned handbags, charming jewelry, and a few ideas for the littles, consider this your VDGG—in brief.

Bottega Veneta
“There’s no going wrong with Bottega, and this large Cabat bag adorned with hearts would certainly warm mine! (The matching wallet is a close second.)” -
Ara Vartanian
“I love the silhouette of these 18K yellow gold earrings, and the unexpectedness of the black diamonds. They’re classic and just a little edgy.” -
Tiffany & Co.
“As soon as the Elsa Peretti Split ring was released last year, it landed on my covet list. Maybe this year!”
