Seeing as Valentine's Day is nearly upon us, we can't forget about our favourite ladies, and by that, I mean our best friends. There through the good, the bad, and the ugly, Galentines Day (13 February) is the perfect way to celebrate each other and get that all important date in the diary. While we know it may take several months and lots of WhatsApp messages to find a date that all the girl gang can do, there's nothing like a lovely Galentines brunch, dinner or night out with the girls, in honour of Galentines Day.

To truly give back to your besties, why not treat them to a thoughtful gift that's personal to them. Whether they're in their hot-girl fitness era, or a new mum who never has enough time in the day, spoil them with a gift that you know they'll love and use. From cosy pyjamas to the ultimate Baccarat Rouge dupe, we've got presents to suit every type of friend - the sporty one, the beauty obsessed, the fashion girlie or the wellness queen - we've got you.

Typically Valentines gifts consist of sexy lingerie, chocolates, and jelly cats, but for our girls, think outside the box and go for presents you know your friends won't necessarily buy for themselves or won't be receiving from their other halves this year.
