Ladies and gentlemen, you’re welcome. Maybe you’ve been busy at work all week or maybe you just forgot – we don’t need your excuses – but Valentine’s Day is today and if you’re still scrambling around for a gift for your loved one, we’ve got you covered. Have a look at our list of last-minute V-Day gifts that work for both hims and hers. They’re quick to buy or make, yet meaningful and impressive. You can thank us later.
If they’re a techy…
You don’t need to spend a fortune if you want quality. Keep your connection alive by getting them a budget-friendly smartwatch or some wireless earphones so they carry something that reminds them of you and suits their outfits, all for an affordable price. realme Buds Air Neo are perfect if you’re looking for super connectivity, smart controls, as well as a 17-hour total playback time and the Watch S comes fully equipped with a heart and blood-oxygen monitor, 16 sports modes, and music and camera controls, perfect for the valentine who enjoys a good workout.
If they’re your muse…
If you’re the creative type, whatever it is you create – poetry, photography, art, music – create something for them, inspired by them. Attach a thoughtful note from the heart.
If they’re your favorite foodie…
Create a gift basket of all their favorite food-related items – saffron, Nutella, vanilla beans… or give them a rest and try your hand in the kitchen! Try this recipe for the perfect Valentine’s Day breakfast in bed.
If they’re a fashion lover…
Vintage fashion is all the rage this year! Check out Kvell’s selection of funky and retro pieces, all pre-loved and carefully selected. Or for something a little more romantic, head over to SHOPCALMA. She has a gorgeous collection of vintage clothes, vases, and odd little knick-knacks, as well as some of her own prints!
If they’re a bookworm…
Buy the latest book from their favorite author or the one that’s missing to complete their collection. Create your own bookmark and write a thoughtful quote that relates to them on the back!
If they’re overworked…
Swing by the JW Marriott or their favorite local hotel and pick up a spa voucher. Or for a more elaborate gift, set up a weekend getaway to one of Egypt’s relaxing destinations like Fayoum or Ras Sidr, both of which are close enough and easy enough to not cause any stress or hassle!
If they’re an animal lover…
Surprise them with a puppy or a kitten. Foreal. They will die from a cuteness overload. Just make sure you think it through and that they will actually take care of it…pets are not toys! If they’re not ready to adopt, organize a visit to one of the animal shelters or maybe even a donkey sanctuary.
If they’re the creative type…
Restock their art supplies: canvases, paintbrushes, a sketchbook, new paints or charcoal – you get the idea. If you don’t know what they need why don’t you take them on an art store shopping spree? We guarantee you there isn’t an artist alive who doesn’t love to shop for art supplies.
If they’re adventurous…
Kidnap them for a week-long getaway somewhere you’ve both never been. They say experiences are the best gifts of all! Check out 21 destinations in Egypt where you can celebrate love this Valentine’s Day.
If all else fails…
You can never go wrong with jewelry and Azza Fahmy never fails to impress; her new men’s line is to die for. Egypt’s design scene is booming, so there are actually quite a few great options these days. Have you seen Indira’s gorgeous rings?
For a super last-minute gift…
Dedicate and give them something meaningful that you own, like their favorite necklace of yours. Again, attach a thoughtful note from the heart.
