Virgo season is upon us, and from August 22 to September 22, this analytical earth sign is the star of the show. If you’re celebrating a Virgo in your life, chances are you want to find a gift that meets their, ahem, particular standards. Known for their meticulous, methodical approach to life, finding the best gifts for Virgos can be intimidating—but it doesn’t have to be!
“Virgo’s tagline is ‘I analyze,’” says Celeste Brooks, astrologer and host of the podcast Celestial Insights. So much so, they’ve earned the stereotype of being fussbudgets, but it’s only because they care. If you’re lucky to know a Virgo, it’s likely they’ve put a lot of thought into finding you a perfect gift. In turn, a gift created specifically for them will go a long way.
As the singular earth sign ruled by planet Mercury, Virgos also possess a strong sense of “practicality,” says astrologer and founder of Capricorn Rising Inc. Alex Caiola. They’re pragmatic and adept at creating routines, which they manage to uphold even amidst chaos (hello, Mercury retrograde). “Virgos are concerned with rituals, routines, and working diligently toward a goal with a level of dedication and organization often tied to perfectionism,” says Caiola.
“Virgo’s tagline is ‘I analyze’” —Celeste Brooks, astrologer
Given this, one of the best gifts you can give a Virgo is something that will optimize their everyday routines. If not, something that will quell overthinking. “A lot of Virgos can be in their head, overanalyzing on how to make things better,” says Brooks. With this in mind, consider giving them something, “that helps get them out of their mind and into their body and into more relaxation,” she says. Because if there’s one sign that could really use some pampering, it’s our always-preserving Virgos.
This necklace comes with a pendant that you can customize with your recipient’s constellation, making for a thoughtful present that will your favorite Virgo just how much you care about them. It’s available in sterling silver, gold fill, or 14-karat gold, and the accompanying chain comes in 17- to 21-inch lengths. The result makes for a treasured keepsake that anyone—including a hard-to-impress Virgo—will love.
Virgos have an“inner discipline and an appreciation for neatness at home,” says Caiola. If the Virgo in your life is a stickler for organization, this desktop organizer will tame the chaos in their office and keep everything in its place. It can store workspace essentials and knick-knacks that don’t have a home, allowing the Virgo to create an orderly station for all their most taxing work endeavors.
As an earth sign, it’s really no surprise that Virgos have a penchant for greenery. As Caiola mentioned in a previous interview, “They’re usually really good with plants.” This indoor garden kit will encourage a beloved Virgo’s green thumb. It’s self-watering and has built-in grow light, creating the perfect environment for plants to thrive. What’s more? The water-based growing system requires no soil, so Virgos don’t have to get their hands (or space) dirty.
Virgos rule the digestive system, and one way to their heart is through their stomach. You’ll only want to best for Virgo’s discerning palate, such as the Sunbasket meal delivery kit. The kits include only USDA-certified organic and sustainable ingredients to make flavorful recipes that will appeal to particular eaters. Each kit comes with several meals’ worth of ingredients to make recipes of their choosing. Plus, it’ll help take the guesswork out of meal planning, which a busybody Virgo is sure to appreciate.
For the Virgo in your life who likes their coffee to their exact specifications, this high-tech, WiFi-enabled coffee maker fits the bill. Its smart-device capabilities allow for a voice-to-brew function, so they can simply say their order aloud to the machine—including a number of cups to brew, and at which strength, temperature, and time—and know it’ll come out just right.
If you know a Virgo who likes to keep their hands (and minds) busy, the Sculpd Pottery Starter Kit will keep them happily preoccupied. The kit, which comes with air-dry clay, allows your recipient to craft mugs, bowls, or small ceramic projects at home.
It’s an easy win: Sculpting clay is nothing if not detail-driven and aligned to a particular end goal—just like Virgos themselves. “They tend to be crafty and love a project that involves time and care to create a polished result,” says Caiola. Oh, and not to mention, playing with clay falls into that category of crafts with major mental health benefits—like serving as a tech-free diversion and boosting levels of happiness hormone serotonin—which aligns this gift with Virgo’s overall focus on wellness.
Adopting a new skill that involves consistent effort to master is right up Virgo’s alley, whose intellect-driven mindset leads them to enjoy learning in a class setting, too. Enter: the gift of a Skillshare subscription, which will give them access for three months to a wide array of classes on everything from graphic design to business analytics.
When it comes to gifts, laundry products aren’t usually the first thing to come to mind. However, what this kit lacks in sex appeal, it makes up for in practicality—something a Virgo will adore. “Virgos are very oriented about cleanliness,” explains Brooks. The kit comes with laundry detergent, laundry booster, and wool dryer balls, for cleaner and fresher-smelling clothes. A bonus: it’s all made from natural ingredients, which is sure to please any earth-minded Virgos.
Virgos have a sense of witty neuroticism, says Caiola, which can turn into anxious or spiraling thoughts on the journey toward a goal. She recommends this therapist-created journal as a helpful modality for Virgos looking to channel and process these thoughts as they arise. Its methodology is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with the guided entries designed to help its user identify and improve negative thought patterns and develop a greater sense of self-awareness.
“A lot of Virgos are health-oriented,” says Brooks—a sentiment echoed by astrologer Stefanie Iris Weiss. “Virgos are all about the mind-body connection,” she previously shared. If the Virgo in your life is looking to prioritize their well-being, a wearable tracker like the Fitbit Charge 6 will offer them detailed information to keep them in tune with their body. It’s Bluetooth compatible and water resistant, and it has easy-to-use features, including a heart-rate monitor, an accelerometer, plus built-in GPS to track runs and bike rides.
If your always-striving Virgo could use some R&R, a massage may be the best gift you can give them, says Brooks. This massage gun will give their body serious relief, and it comes in a compact package so they can use it anytime, anywhere. And don’t let its size fool you. It offers powerful percussion, plus comes with several attachments and speed settings for extra comfort.
Virgos are all about acts of service, says Brooks, and a gift that pays it forward will speak to their compassionate side. “If a Virgo has everything, you can think about making a donation to a charity,” she says. This eGift card allows them to select from over 1,000 charities and donate the funds to up to three charities of their choice.

No matter the relationship stage you’re in—dating, married, or in a situationship—Valentine’s Day can add pressure for extravagant, rom-com-worthy displays of love and devotion. But the reality isn’t always as romantic.

Truth be told, there is no “right” answer when it comes to showing your love with a gift but, in our opinion, the best V-Day presents are those you can enjoy together. Read on for over 50 suggestions for Valentine’s Day gifts for couples that will help get the inspiration flowing.

Best Valentine's Day gifts for couples, at a glance:
What’s better than flowers on Valentine’s Day? Flowers and a vibrator. This year, the flower delivery company The Bouqs has partnered with Dame to offer this stunning “Good Vibes” arrangement. Each order of this lush, strawberry shortcake-colored bouquet includes a Dame Zig bullet vibe, which is made with soft silicone and has a fluttering tip. Siri, play “My Favorite Things.”
With positions called “Love is Blind,” “Tickle Me Elmo,” and “A Moveable Feast,” this saucy book of sex positions is guaranteed to help keep things interesting in the bedroom.
Help your lover unwind with this soothing massage oil from Lazarus Naturals. It's made with nourishing jojoba and sweet almond oils, as well as USDA Organic-certified full-spectrum CBD for added relief. Plus, it comes in a handy pump dispenser and is free of added fragrances or sketchy ingredients, so you can relax and focus your attention on delivering an excellent full-body massage.
These tasty gummies are blended with full-spectrum CBD and a load of other popular aphrodisiacs, like maca, horny goat weed, and ashwagandha. Needless to say, they’re great for ~getting in the mood~ and are the libido boost no bedside table should go without.
This couples vibrator is designed to be inserted into the vagina during penetrative sex, sending stimulating vibrations to the clitoris, G-spot, and penis at the same time. And you can operate it via the remote control—which responds to you squeezing it to ramp up the intensity. It even has a touch-sensitive function that allows the Chorus to respond to your body movements!
If you and your partner want to have an even happier happy hour, this fun drinking game is the way to do it (though you could just as easily play with mocktails instead of a cocktail.) With 100 cards in the deck, this 2-person card game is sure to spark laughs and conversation. The rules are simple: follow whatever the card says, or take a drink. It’s basically the adult version of Truth or Dare, only instead of spilling secrets, you’re sipping your drink.
This solid massage bar is a must-buy Valentine’s Day gift for any couple whose love language is physical touch. In addition to nourishing dry skin, the Sex Stone functions as a lubricant in intimate situations, offering the perfect amount of glide.
Nobody actually likes those chalky heart-shaped candies, right? With this four-pack of soft modal thongs from PSD, you’re the real treat. And if the cheeky candy sayings aren’t your vibe, PSD has other Valentine’s Day prints to explore, as well as matching sets for men and women.
This silky soft pajama set is soft, sexy, and made of 100 percent Mulberry silk that’s thermoregulating to keep you cool and comfortable all night long. The best part, though, is that it’s machine washable (hold for applause). They also come in a matching men’s style that’s equally luxe.
If snuggling up on the couch with your boo is your idea of quality time, there’s literally no better throw blanket for the job (especially in frigid February). The Cozy Earth Cuddle Blanket is seriously soft, made with cuddly faux fur you’ll want to run your hands over—honestly I end up petting it while it’s on my lap. Whether you choose the regular or “bubble” style, this hefty throw will quickly become your favorite.
Recreate the feeling of relaxing in a fancy hotel robe by treating you and your partner to matching Cloud Robes from Parachute. The luxe robe is made of 100-percent Turkish cotton and has a plush gauze that feels uber-soft on skin. Note: some sizes are selling out quickly, so act fast on this one!
With notes of olive wood, bergamot, and rose, this Ya Thamani Candle has a soft, inviting scent that’s grounding, romantic, and luxurious all at once—making it an instant mood-maker for your Valentine’s Day night-in.
This ultra-soothing neck and shoulder massager is the third wheel you never knew you needed. It delivers a heated deep tissue massage so good, those stress induced knots won’t stand a chance.

For the couple that prefers baths to showers, these Fur bath beads are packed with nourishing oils like jojoba and grapeseed oil, along with the brand’s signature Fur Oil that’s beloved for its hydrating benefits that totally banish dry, itchy skin.
For couples who are also proud plant parents, treating yourselves to a new houseplant is a fool-proof Valentine’s Day gift—especially when it waters itself. Seriously, I have the happiest Fiddle Leaf Fig bush from Easyplant and all I’ve done is keep an eye on the brand’s self-watering pot. You fill up the pot’s water chamber once a month and forget about it, meaning you’ll never have to worry about not feeding it too much or too little. Anthuriums make a great gift, as they thrive in bright, indirect light and are one of the longest-blooming house plants—which means you can enjoy their gorgeous, pink blooms for longer.
One of the small but mighty ways my husband shows me he loves me is by filling up my BrüMate, which yes, sounds like something I can and should do for myself, but the Brita is heavy and sometimes I forget and ugh, whatever, it’ssweet ok?! Anyway, if you’re looking to give the gift of ice-cold hydration, this seasonal rose pattern (as well as this cute heart design) is a great pick.
For the couple that loves to cook together, Valentine’s Day is a solid excuse to splurge on new cookware. This wooden cutting board set from Caraway (a brand beloved by team W+G) is made with gorgeous, Forest Stewardship Council-certified birchwood, and comes with a sleek storage rack. The set’s versatile size range means you and your honey can both get to choppin’ at the same time, and each board contains indented sections for added organization while you prep.
How sweet are these heart-shaped salt and pepper shakers? Beyond being adorable and seasonally appropriate, the set comes from Le Creuset so you know they’ll last a lifetime. Pop them on your dinner table during your Valentine’s Day meal to surprise your culinary cutie.
Why is fondue so romantic? Maybe it’s the communal aspect, or the choose-your-own-adventure energy—or maybe just the simple fact that you can pop a cheese-coated grape in your lover’s mouth and that’s pretty fun. Whatever your reasons for fondu-ing, this 3qt fondue pot from Cuisinart will set you up with everything you need—just add cheese.
What’s there to say? It’s a heart-shaped waffle maker and it costs less than $10. The only way to make this a better Valentine’s Day gift is by using it to make waffles together the morning of Feb 14.
If you’re looking for an experience-led gift, Sur La Table’s virtual cooking classes are a great option. You and your Valentine will get the chance to be taught by an expert chef, and making something new (and delicious) from the comfort of your home kitchen. Besides, it beats fighting over a restaurant reservation.
If you two bond over a glass of vino, check out this cool wine accessory from Ullo. It’s a purifier that uses a filter to reduce the amount of unwanted sulfites in your pour. You can also adjust the device’s aeration to work for different types of wine (less for whites, more for reds, etc).
Here’s the sweetest way to celebrate together. With indulgent, small-batch ice cream flavors made from the creamiest, real-deal ingredients, it’s a perfect date-night treat. Whether you’re sharing straight from the pint or crafting sundaes, this bundle turns dessert into a love language—no reservations required.
If the two of you are tea drinkers, why not level up your daily brew with some luxe blends from Art of Tea? This thoughtful gift set includes a sampler of pyramid sachets, featuring 12 blends that range from the predictable (English Breakfast, Mint Green) to the exotic (Egyptian Chamomile, White Coconut Cremé). Plus, the set comes in a giftable wooden box and includes two gorgeous ceramic mugs to add to your collection.
You know what they say—couples that espresso together, stay together. Ok, maybe they don’t say that, but they should. The Bialetti Mini Express takes your traditional Moka Pot and splits it in two, brewing up two espresso shots at the same time, making it a great Valentine’s Day gift for couples who bond over their morning coffee time.
A Valentine’s Day gift that’s both cute and practical, these adorable face-shaped mugs will make you and your partner’s coffee breaks all the more special. Whether you’re sipping on coffee together or apart, this unique set will keep your loved one at top of mind.
If you and your partner are in the mood to splurge this Valentine’s Day on a kitchen gift you’ll both fall head over heels for, let it be this drip coffee maker. Not only is it a tried, tested, and true W+G team favorite, it’ll save you serious cash on trips to the coffee shop.

If you and your sweetheart like a little friendly competition, give the gift of a fast-paced card game. My husband and I are newly addicted to Dutch Blitz, which is a little bit Egyptian Ratscrew, a little bit Solitaire, and a lot of fun. I recommend raising the stakes by offering up a back massage to the winner.
This Valentine’s Day Lego set makes for a fun way to spend time together on the 14th without having to sort through a gazillion pieces—ok there are still 250 pieces, but that’s not nearly as many as most Lego sets and it can absolutely be completed in an evening. Plus, once it’s finished, you can hang it on your front door or anywhere in your home for a little seasonal decor!
Suds up your sweetheart with this set of gel-infused sponges from Spongelle. The heart-shaped design holds a dermatologist-tested formula of glycerin and botanical ingredients like edelweiss and vetiver extract. Choose from two fragrance sets: Beloved Lily and pink camilla, or sweet orchid and scarlet blush.
For couples that live together, a fancy hand soap is kind of a big deal. Even if your partner claims not to care, once they’ve tried an Aesop soap, they’ll recognize it as the treat that it is.

Vinyl-collecting couples, this Victrola portable record player deserves a place in your shopping cart.

It packs up easy thanks to the suitcase-inspired design that allows you to take your tunes anywhere.
With a name like Lover’s Bracelet, you know this minimalist gold chain bracelet makes for a beautiful couple’s gift. It’s made with 100 percent recycled 14K gold and a touch wider and weighter than Catbird’s other chains, for a look that makes a statement alone, or paired with other pieces. Snag one for you and your Valentine for a sweet matching moment.

This easy to follow kit includes everything you need—from the French dark chocolate morsels to all the tasty add-ins like Himalayan salt, coconut flakes, vanilla, and more.
For the couple that could do serious damage in a candy store, this Sugarfina Bento Box is positively loaded with all of the gourmet candy varieties they could hope for—from champagne gummy bears to dark chocolate caramels.
Whether you have a pool nearby or are jet-setting somewhere warm together, these heart-shaped pool floats from Funboy make a really fun Valentine’s Day gift. Not only are they super cute, they’re made from upcycled production scraps (see ya never, landfill!) so you can feel great about your purchase. Choose a single heart tube, or snag a 3-pack ($69) so you can float together.
For the couple with an ever-expanding bucket list, this scratchable world map will help you keep tabs on all the destinations you’ve visited. Plus, it doubles as wall art.
For the couple that loves a day outdoors, this Yeti Cooler makes for an ideal V-day investment. On top of its ultra-durable design, the personal sized cooler easily accommodates enough drinks and ice for two people, making it a must-pack for romantic hikes, picnics, or days at the beach.
For the selfie-savvy couple who loves making memories, this Fujifilm instant camera has a built-in one-touch selfie mode and mirror that make it a welcome addition on vacations, date nights, and group hangs. The only thing you’ll love more than getting a photo printed in an instant is the compact camera’s retro aesthetic.
Gifts are great and all, but the honest truth is that time spent with your partner is the best gift of them all. As we said above, we think that the best Valentine’s Day gifts for couples are the ones that you can enjoy together, and that pave the way for more meaningful quality time.
For example, if you and your partners are foodies who love to cook new recipes at home, new cookware or matching aprons will make cooking meals together even more special. If you’re homebodies who love to lounge and practice self-care together, a comfy robe, slippers, and blanket would all make delightful Valentine’s Day gifts. And if you can’t keep your hands off each other, there are countless sexy gift options out there that’ll set sparks flying in the bedroom, from vibrators to sensual massage oils. To spare you the headache of having to track these gifts down yourself, we rounded up the very best Valentine’s Day gifts for couples that you can shop right now (which we’d gently recommend, as V-day is less than a month away!)
