*This post contains gifted products
With valentines just around the corner, and having so much fun creating my gift guides last year (see for him here and for her, here), it was only right to bring them back for 2020! Starting with the boys, because let’s be honest, they’re the hardest to buy for, are they not? Let’s get stuck into it.
What to buy him for valentines
Undies.. duh!
I always think a good starter for him are some boxers. I think you can always trust a man in good underwear, but sometimes the fellas need a little help. Sloanies are a luxurious underwear brand, but best of all, they’re sustainable too. The Dylan Boxer Briefs* are quite possibly the softest underwear I’ve ever felt, made from TENCEL™ Modal fabric that’s 3x softer than cotton. The fibres used to make the underwear are produced from responsibly managed forests, and they use sustainable dyeing processes too. What’s not to like?
Some tech
Most men like tech in some way or another, whether they be a gaming geek or an apple product addict. This nifty little speaker from Prezzybox is ideal for those who are into their music, perhaps a bit of a party host and likes to show off from time to time. The JamJar Wireless Speaker* is a Bluetooth speaker with 6 hours battery life, allowing you to play music and answer calls from across the rooms using a handy little remote. Plus it looks great on the shelf, am I right?
A cardholder
I think a wallet or a cardholder is a super practical present for him. This Compact Black Leather Cardholder* is a handy gift, especially if you find your man relying on contactless a lot. A cardholder is a useful way to keep the cards you need with you, without any notes or annoying change in your pocket.
Some skincare & smellies
I love treating Jamie to some skincare. I feel like a lot of men brush off skincare, so it’s up to us women in their lives to sort them out. You could go fancy with some elemis, or keep it simple with L’oreal. It’s nice for men to have a bit of self-care too.
Something to pass the time…
I think a really thoughtful gift for him is a book. No matter whether your boyfriend is a big reader or not, I always think there’s a book you can get him. If he’s not into fiction, why not pick up an autobiography of someone he’s a fan of or a book about a Netflix series he enjoyed?
And if all else fails… some grub!
What guy, or girl for that matter, doesn’t like food?! This Personalised Toblerone* from PrezzyBox is perfect – it’s a bit different, a bit of fun, and won’t break the bank.
What are you getting the special man in your life this Valentines?
