V-Day Gift Ideas for Him and Her

By Alicia Olivares —

The legend of St. Valentine’s Day varies over time and culture. Some say the tradition of celebrating love began during the Middle Ages when women were courted by men in hopes to marry. Others suggest the tradition began during the 1800s with the publication of The Young Man’s Valentine Writer, a collection of romantic verses men would tell their beloveds. Today, the Valentine traditions may have slightly changed, with sweet nothings being replaced by sparkling gifts and fancy dinners. Whether you’re on a budget or planning to splurge on your special someone, here are a few of our favorite Valentine gifts for him and her.
