Hey y’all-happy Valentine’s Day week! Regardless of your relationship status, Valentine’s Day is a great opportunity to eat lots of chocolate and heart-shaped treats and to celebrate ALL forms of love in your life. In case you’re wanting to buy a gift to treat yourself or a Galentine, today I’m sharing a gift guide for 50 Galentines gift ideas for under $50. I meat to get this guide up sooner, but between a busy schedule and technical difficulties, it simply didn’t happen. However, there’s still time to order a last minute gift before February 14. And I personally believe you can celebrate love all month long. Plus, these picks would also make gifts for upcoming birthdays. I carefully curated this gift guide with picks from some of my favorite brands. I’m featuring jewelry, beauty products, mugs, clothes, home decor, and more. In addition, I own many of these items (or similar ones) myself.

1. Lilly Pulitzer Ruffle Knit PJ Shorts
If you’ve been reading my latest posts, then you know Lilly pajamas are on of my latest obsessions. I just ordered another pair of Lilly PJ shorts using a gift card I still had on hand! These are less than $50, and would be a perfect Galentines gift for yourself or a friend.
2. Anthropologie Initial Necklace
This Anthropologie initial necklace is under $40, goes with everything, and suits a variety of personal styles, from preppy to boho!
3. Beautycounter Color Intense Lipstick
This is Beautycounter’s most pigmented lipstick, featuring long-lasting color and a delicious peppermint scent. The “Girls Night” color is great if you or your Galentine is into bold red lipstick. If you’re like me and prefer bright pink when going bold with lip color, I recommend “Garden Party.”
4. Allie Marie Allison Earrings
I have these classic bar drop earrings in gold, which are currently sold out. However, they are still available in silver!
5. Kendra Scott Ari Heart Gold Stud Earrings
How precious are these Kendra Scott heart earrings?! They come in several different colors (note that the Druzy is over $50, all other stones are under $50) and would be super festive for Valentine’s Day, but also appropriate to wear at other times.
6. Beautycounter Lemongrass Sugar Body Scrub
If you want to treat yourself to an at-home spa day, I highly recommend this luxurious sugar scrub from Beautycounter that exfoliates and moisturizes dry skin.
7. Primally Pure Almond + Vanilla Body Butter
Primally Pure is one of my other favorite clean beauty brands, and this body butter would make a great gift for anyone. Both the 4oz and 8oz sizes are under $50! Plus, you can save 10% with code “LS10.”
8. Kendra Scott Fern Pendant Necklace
This dainty Kendra Scott necklace goes with everything and makes a great gift for anyone.
9. Vineyard Vines Painted Palm Headband
I love that headbands are in right now. And even if they weren’t I would still wear them bc hey are also great for those days you don’t want to wash your hair! This pink and red one from Vineyard Vines would be perfect for Valentine’s Day.
10. Draper James Totes Y’all Gingham Lunchbox
Reese Witherspoon’s lifestyle brand, Draper James, has the cutest gift items with a Southern flair, and this light blue gingham lunch bag that says “Totes Y’all” is no exception!
11. Beautycounter Sheer Lipstick
Beautycounter Sheer Lipstick is my favorite of their three lip color formulas. While it’s not as pigmented or long-lasting as the Color Intense Lipstick, it is more moisturizing. I especially love the shade “Poppy” (pictured above) for Valentine’s Day. It’s a shimmering reddish-pink, and is perfect if you’re like me and don’t do bold red lipstick.
12. Vineyard Vines Striped Simple Boatneck Long-Sleeved Tee
This classic red & white striped boatneck tee from Vineyard Vines screams “Valentine’s Day,” but you could definitely wear it outside of February too.
13. Primally Pure Lip Balm
I recently tried Primally Pure Lip Balm for the first time, and I’m definitely a fan. It comes in Cocoa, Lavender, Peppermint, Grapefruit, and Creamsicle. I’ve only tried the Cocoa so far, but I also bought some Grapefruit and Creamsicle for myself as well. The lip balm is only $4 a tube, so this is something that would be great if you’re on a budget but want to give some love to multiple Galentines. You can also save 10% on Primally Pure by entering code “LS10” at checkout.
14. Kate Spade “Eat Cake for Breakfast” Kitchen Towel
This Kate Spade kitchen towel is only $10, and the pink & white is perfect for Valentine’s Day. I actually bought this towel two years ago, and am happy to see it’s back in stock!
15. Lilly Pulitzer Printed Headband
I love a Lilly Pulitzer headband for adding a pop of print to any outfit year-round.
16. Vineyard Vines Valentine’s Day Whale Medium Canvas Cosmetic Case
This Vineyard Vines canvas makeup pouch would make an adorable festive gift.
17. Draper James Magnolia Travel Pouch
You really can’t go wrong with gifting a travel pouch, and this magnolia print one from Draper James is anther great option.
18. Beautycounter Citrus Mimosa Body Lotion
This Beautycounter body lotion is moisturizing plus smells amazing, but without the harmful artificial fragrance.
19. Kate Spade Charlotte Street Mug
I love Kate Spade coffee mugs, and this navy and white striped one is such a classic look that will work for just about anyone.
20. Vineyard Vines Whale Logo Baseball Hat
If you or your Galentine love classic preppy essentials, a Vineyard Vines baseball hat is a great gift idea. I especially love the pink.
21. Draper James “Hello Sugar” Canvas Market Tote
This tote from Draper James is another versatile gift idea.
22. Kate Spade “Make Lemonade” Kitchen Towel
This precious lemon print towel is another Kate Spade kitchen towel I bought a couple years ago that is now back in stock. It’s also only $10, and is a great go-to gift.
23. Vineyard Vines Whale Dot Corkcicle
This Vineyard Vines branded Corckcicle water bottle is a gorgeous bright pink, and keeps hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold.
24. Kate Spade All That Glistens XOXO Heart Dish
The theming of this Kate Spade heart dish is on-point for Valentine’s Day, and is great for holding jewelry or trinkets.
25. Draper James Pretty as a Peach Cosmetic Bag
Although I’m not a Georgia girl, I love peaches and anything with a fruit motif (which is obvious if you’ve been reading my blog for awhile). Thus, I have to recommend this sweet peach-shaped makeup bag from Draper James.
26. Kate Spade Small Heart Studs
Head over to Kate Spade for another pair of heart earrings that are perfect for Valentine’s Day, and cute to wear beyond.
27. Lilly Pulitzer Ceramic Mug
I got this mug in a different print during a recent After Party Sale, and it has quickly become my favorite mug. It’s beautiful and high quality!
28. Draper James Mini Notebook Set
Everyone can use a mini notebook for jotting down thoughts on the go. This set from Draper James features one with a magnolia print, and one that says “Sisterhood.” The “Sisterhood” one is especially perfect for a Galentine.
29. Kate Spade Artisan Stripe Kitchen Towel Set
These striped Kate Spade kitchen towels are so bright and cheery!
30. Anthropologie Jane McClellan Studio Bone Appetit Mug
My bestie gave this mug to her sister, who is a black lab mom, for Christmas and she loved it! There’s also a golden retriever one, but I’m obviously partial to the black lab!
31. Lilly Pulitzer Stud Earrings
These classic and versatile earrings from Lilly Pulitzer come in bright pink and white.
32. Kate Spade Heart of Gold Idiom Bangle
I’ve had this particular Kate Spade bangle for years, and I love that it’s still available. It has “Heart of Gold” engraved on the inside. Plus, it goes with every outfit.
33. Beautycounter Melting Body Balm
The Beautycounter Melting Body Balm comes out of the tube as a balm, and transforms into an oil when you apply on your skin for extra hydration. However, it’s non-greasy and absorbs quickly. Plus, it smells like a tropical vacation (minus artificial fragrance).
34. Kate Spade Pacific Petals Thermal Mug
I have two Kate Spade travel mugs in different designs that I absolutely love, so any Kate Spade thermal mug is a go-to gift recommendation of mine! This one has a pretty floral print that gets you in the mood for spring.

39. Draper James “You Are Loved” Trinket Tray
This Draper James trinket dish is a sweet Valentines-themed gift, but will look great on anyone’s nightstand or dresser year-round.
40. Kate Spade Bistro Stripe Kitchen Towel
I know this is the fourth Kate Spade kitchen towel that I’ve included in this guide, but they really are great budget-friendly gifts. I bought this light purple “Be My Guest” kitchen towel a couple months ago, and it gives me Beauty and the Beast vibes.
41. Lilly Pulitzer Travel Tumbler
I have this Lilly travel tumbler in a different print, and the currently available “Swizzle In’ print is on my wish list. I like to pour my Trader Joe’s canned wine into mine, but obviously it doesn’t serve as a “travel” tumbler when I do that!
42. Kate Spade Stripe Pencil Case
This striped Kate Spade pencil case is great for organizing any small items in your purse.
43. Rifle Paper Co. x Anthropologie Garden Party Monogram Mug
I love any type of initial gift, and this Rifle Paper Co. mug from Anthropologie is nice and colorful.

This gift set from DaySpring includes a dainty heart pendant necklace, and a box with encouraging Scripture cards.
