The Best 8 Galentine's Gifts

As if we didn’t have enough to thank Parks and Rec for (truly one of the most fabulous shows of all time), it started something that will go down in history as one of the greatest holidays ever: Galentine’s Day.

For those of you who don’t know what Galentine’s is, here’s a description from none other than Leslie Knope herself: “Every February 13, my ladyfriends and I leave our husbands and our boyfriends at home, and we just come and kick it, breakfast-style. Ladies celebrating ladies. It's like Lilith Fair, minus the angst.”

Clearly, holidays don’t come much better than Galentine’s Day — and if you’re wondering what to get your gal pals, look no further: we’ve got you covered.

Self-care gift set

#1: Pampering gift set

Price: $38 on Uncommongoods.com

Someone sent me a Lizush gift set for my birthday (the brand they use for this pampering set) and It. Was. INCREDIBLE. It comes with all kinds of goodies to help you destress, from a shower bomb to the most delightful smelling candle you can imagine. As Lizzie McGuire once sang, this gift truly is “what dreams are made of.”

 

Pink heart pin saying "you can"

#2: “You Can” enamel pin

Price: $10.73 on Etsy 

Honestly, I think a caption for this little guy is basically unnecessary, because who wouldn’t want this adorable and encouraging enamel pin?! With its heart shape, it’s an especially perfect Valentine’s gift, but it remains appropriate (and again, ADORABLE) all year! Win/win.

 

Silver furry blanket draped over chair

#3: Cozy blanket

Price: $29.99 on Amazon.com

Everyone — and I do mean EVERYONE — loves a cozy blanket. If your friend is anything like me, they’ll want to snuggle up in this blanket immediately with a steaming mug of cocoa and a good book. (In case you’re not catching my subtle hint, I very much want us to be gal pals and for you to send me this blanket. Thank you in advance.) 

 

Black cat eye sunglasses

#4: These gorgeous cat eye sunglasses

Price: $24 on Unique-Vintage.com

If you tell me these aren’t the most stunning sunglasses you’ve ever seen, well… I just don’t believe you. They’re classy, flirty, and everything a gal (pal) could want. I’ll take 30. (Okay, that’s excessive. I’ll take one. Two in case I accidentally sit on the first pair. FINE, three.) 

 

Coloring pencils with Golden Girls quotes on them

#5: “Golden Girls” pencil set

Price: $22 on LonghandPencils.com 

I clearly couldn’t be more obsessed with Longhand Pencils if I tried, but it’s for a good reason: their pencils are INCREDIBLE. And nothing says “you’re a pal and a confidante” quite like the pencil set surrounding the Golden Girls, a.k.a. the OG gal pals. Just don’t forget to attach a card saying “Thank you for being a friend.”

 

Galentine's Gift Box

 

#6: Brightbox’s “Galentines” gift box

Price: $15 on Brighboxes.com

Face mask? Check. Bath salts? Check. Chocolate? Check. Honestly, this gift box has everything your ladyfriends might want, and it’s inexpensive to boot. Leslie would be so proud. 

 

Colorful stone necklaces

#7: Custom birthstone necklace

Price: Starts at $22.40 on Etsy.com

Okay, these are honestly making me wish that I somehow defied science and was born in every single month so I could have ALL of these. Truly, though, it makes the most beautiful Galentine’s gift and is something your friend will cherish forever. *Cue allllll the heart emojis.*

 

Fuzzy black slippers

#8: These Jessica Simpson slippers

Price: Starts at $24.99 on Amazon.com 

These slippers were gifted to me for my birthday and honestly, if I could marry them, I would. They are the comfiest thing I’ve ever owned, and I wear them CONSTANTLY. They keep my toes nice and toasty and my soul warm and happy. Trust me: your friends will love them.
