More last-minute Valentine's Day gifts

Posted in #Chicago blog by Jessica Herman on Feb 7, 2013 at 11:11am

Three once-a-month flower deliveries from H.BLOOM’s Arrange-Your-Own Collection, $87 at hbloom.com
Come up roses with your trendsetter girlfriend—this Netflix-like flower subscription service is brand new to Chicago and has popular-in-Manhattan cred.

In this week's issue, we offer a few clever alternatives to the cliche V-Day gifts (flowers, chocolate and lingerie) you've been thinking about buying. Since you can never have too many options, here are three more for the ones you like, love and really really lerve. 

Like: We haven't met a woman who doesn't enjoy a mani/pedi. That said, many of us don't want to indulge too often. Treat her to the special red wine and roses mani/pedi treatment at the Spa at Dana (80 minutes for $125). She'll enjoy a glass of wine while soaking her hands and feet in a calming rose and honey milk bath with fresh rose petals, an exfoliating sugar scrub and a hand and foot massage.

Love: One of the greatest parts about receiving flowers from your sweetie? You think of him/her every time you look at that bouquet. Step it up a notch with Field & Florist's four-week winter blues subscription, a weekly bouquet of sustainable flowers. Make that warm, fuzzy feeling last that much longer ($150, $180 with delivery). Looking for a more exotic flower selection? Try H.Bloom's weekly/monthly subscription ($65 per exotic arrangement).

In it to win it foreversville: So maybe she doesn't need another ring on her finger just yet. A lady always loves jewelry. Go for the gold (and diamonds, emeralds, you pick) with local designer Dana Rebecca's Jacquie C heart necklace. She'll love you forevah.
