For a while I didn’t see a real reason to hang around the South Bay. That is until I discovered Santana Row. Santana Row is a great one-stop shop for all things from home goods to clothing. It’s also a great place for a night out. The bars and restaurants along Santana Row are always bustling on weekend nights. Aside from shopping and eating, Santana Row is a spot to practice healthy lifestyle. There are fitness studios (Soul Cycle is coming soon!), salons and wellness spas. I’m telling you, Santana Row has it all!
Because Santana Row has a broad selection of stores it’s only right that I write a Valentine’s Gift Guide. Whether you’re shopping for your gal pals or your boo, I’ve got a list of shops that you need to check out to find the perfect Valentine’s Day gift.
For your boyfriend:
Oakley – This store is perfect for your athletic honey. There’s performance apparel, watches and footwear. And with spring/summer right around the corner, I’m sure your man could use a pair of their popular sunnies.
Suitsupply – If you’re feeling super generous, why not treat your man to a luxury, custom tailored suit? He’ll love the new look and you’ll have a dapper cutie on your arm. It’s a win-win situation!
b8ta – No one can deny that men have an affinity for electronics. B8ta has the latest tech products to hit the market. For instance, virtual reality headsets and electric skateboards are some of their top-sellers. And you can test everything right there in the store.
For your girlfriend:
Kendra Scott – Kendra Scott is one of the most popular jewelry lines right now. She’ll be so impressed by your selection, let alone that you even know who Kendra Scott is! And most of the pieces are at reasonable prices; varying from $50 to $250.
Lululemon – No matter what kind of girl your girlfriend is, she will appreciate a workout set from Lululemon. Girls love yoga pants, whether it’s for working out or just simply running errands.
Spence Diamonds – What I love about Spence Diamonds is that all their diamonds are ethical.Grab her something that sparkles and she’ll love you forever.
For your gal pals:
Anthropologie – For your girlfriend who loves to host, I suggest grabbing an item or two from their home good sections. Personally, I love their dinnerware and cookbooks. They make for a perfect gift!
Gift card to Dry Bar or Lavande Salon – Pamper your glam girlfriends with a gift card to one of these fab salons! A sweet blowout and some fresh tips is all a gal needs to feel like a brand new woman.
Sephora – If I know my girlfriend is into traveling, I’ll go to the travel section and grab travel size items that I could pop into a gift bag. Create a mixture of lip balm, perfume and dry shampoo. She’ll love it!
For you parents:
Burke Williams Beyond The Spa – Lately I’ve been gifting my parents the gift of an experience, and they absolutely love it! Give your parents the gift of a relaxing day and they’ll not only enjoy the experience, but they’ll enjoy experiencing it with each other.
Vintage Wine Merchants – Are your parents vino aficionados? With a selection of over 10 different kind of wines from 7 different countries, I’m sure you’ll find a bottle that they’ll enjoy.
For anyone:
Amazon Books – Help your loved one find his/her next big read! This store has all the best-selling books along with Amazon devices, such as Kindle and Fire Tablets.
Sugarfina – Who doesn’t love sweets?! Sugarfina does a great job curating boxes of sweets with clever sayings, such as “Olive You” and “You’re a Catch”. And don’t skip out on the champagne flavored gummy bears! Those are deelish!
