Debating what to get your valentine this year? TODAY style editor Bobbie Thomas shares fun and unique gifts for your loved ones:
Vaseful flowers
A beautiful bouquet of flowers has been the classic go-to Valentine’s Day gift for decades. So this year, why not support an organization that gives back to the community when placing your order? Vaseful is a unique floral business that not only boasts a great selection of fresh, hand-arranged flowers, but is also the only nonprofit flower shop in the country that employs people with disabilities, offering them a portable lifelong skill set. The New Jersey-based shop has nationwide delivery options for any occasion — because sending flowers never goes out of style, no matter what the reason ($25 and up; Vaseful.com). Booty Parlor treats
For yourself or a friend, Booty Parlor’s new “Mojo Makeover” book may be the perfect present to get you back in action! The adult luxury brand’s website also offers bath and body treasures such as their Naughty Bubbles, Flirty Little Secret Body Butter, Skin Honey, Don’t Stop Massage candles and more ($10-$32; BootyParlor.com).
MiPET speakers
Figuring out what to get him may be the hardest part of this female-friendly holiday. However, when in doubt, the way to his heart may be through his funny bone. And while a stuffed animal may not first come to mind, a Dancing Pet Speaker takes things to a whole new level ($40 regular, $19.99 sale; UrbanOutfitters.com).
Hoops and Yoyo audio cards
