It’s traditionally a day for lovers or stuffing your face with chocolate while crying into your couch cushions as you binge watch rom-coms and contemplate single life, but Valentine’s Day has taken a turn in recent years that we’re all for.
Hijacked (in the best way) by the term Galentine’s Day, February 14th has become a celebration of the strongest relationships we have in our lives – the friendships we share with our closest gal pals.
As with any celebration, gifts are often exchanged.
While they may not be necessary, we must say if anyone deserves to be spoiled rotten it’s your bestie.
Peep some of the best Galentine’s gift ideas you’ll want to add to cart immediately (and eventually borrow from your BFF), below.
Magic Mike is back, and just in time for Valentine’s Day! Grab the girls and celebrate Galentine’s Day by experiencing Channing Tatum alongside Salma Hayek Pinault in this steamy movie event. Check your local cinema times on the Magic Mike website.
