Show Some Love



FOR HIM 
Photography by Fernando Rojas

Under $50
You check his Facebook when your boss isn't looking, and your heart drops into your stomach every time your phone rings. If you haven’t DTR’d yet… but he’s taking you out for a special date – then you might be confused on whether to get a gift or not. These are great ideas for a gift that says “I like you, but I’m not ready to meet the ‘rents just yet.” You’ll look thoughtful, and he’ll be smitten

You practice writing your name “Mrs. [insert his last name here],” and you just bought a labradoodle together. It’s safe to say you’re going to end up with this one. Already hitched?

FOR HER

You’re still in the playing games phase (like waiting an hour to text her back just because she did). Flowers are predictable, and chocolate is specifically banned from her New Year’s Resolutions list. Even if she made you promise not to get her anything this year, that’s chick talk for “you better get me something.” You can’t go wrong if you stick to our list.

You can’t imagine not being with her, but one thing’s for sure… you’d be a lot richer! The girl’s got expensive taste, but your wallet’s still recovering from that dinner at The Mansion you just splurged on. No worries - we promise she’ll swoon over any of these budget-friendly items. Check please!

If you want her to be your wifey then you’re going to have to pony up bud. She puts up with your scattered clothes and un-manicured toes (just to name a few). This year spoil her rotten with an item from our list instead of that flat screen TV you got her last year that was meant to be enjoyed by the both of you - right.
