Valentine's Day Gift Guide

Valentine's Day is this weekend, so Style Goodies is hooking you up with a tried-and-true gift guide -- just leave this page up on your computer and your honey will get the hint!

Lingerie

Lingerie should not be reserved for {ahem} quality time with your mate. Start thinking of it as an essential style item -- the thing that touches your skin all day and makes you feel totally irresistible, even if you're the only one who knows you're wearing it!

Perfume

Sweet, fruity, floral, or spicy -- perfume is pretty much a no brainer when it comes to Valentine's Day gifts. Two great ideas: Love by Harajuku Lovers($30-45) -- it's fruity with a soft vanilla finish, and the name is so apropos; and Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker ($36-68) -- make it a girl's night and share this one with all your best girlfriends!

Candy

Instead of the garden variety box of chocolates from the drugstore indulge in something a little more exotic this V-Day. Try champagne-infused white or dark chocolate or spice things up with some Ancho chili or Ceylon cinnamon flavored truffles. Vosges Haute Chocolat offers these luxurious indulgences and more!

Good Girls Wait

Single girls, and the lucky boys who date them, are aware of certain "rules"to consider when faced with a new suitor. For example, no messy foods (think BBQ, spaghetti, etc) on the first date, always wait until after date #5 before having "the talk," and other such dating formulas. But whether you follow these rules, or make up your own as you go, come December you will be singing the praises of one dating principle in particular - that's when Nicole Miller's new lingerie collection, aptly titled 3rd Date, will be available.

The collection (Miller's second lingerie line) was designed for "the way women live their lives today," says the designer, no doubt referring to the pearls of wisdom passed down from such celebs as Sarah Jessica Parker and Jennifer Aniston (as well as countless other women who are faithful to the third date rule). Seven bra styles, including a lace balconette (Hello, cleavage!) and a plunging strapless number, plus coordinating bottoms and a suspender belt with clips will make up the too-sexy collection, which will be available at Bloomingdale's this winter, and Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus after the first season. Expect to see print ads in Elle this November.

Average retail price for the bras will be $50, the garter belt will go for $24, and panties will be $15. Lingerie this pretty (and inexpensive!) should be shown off, but try to wait until the 3rd date!
