Melanie’s Valentine’s Day Gift Guide

Posted on February 09, 2017 by Kathleen Harris

Stumped for what to get your loved ones this Valentine’s Day? Get inspired by a few of Clos-ette founder Melanie Charlton's favorite things.

1. For Him: Chic Briefs

Spoil the man in your life with luxury undergarments. Renowned photographer Douglas Friedman has brought his impeccable style to the world of fashion, collaborating with Designow on a Savile Row-inspired boxers and briefs collection. Designed in 100% premium cotton, every pair of the tailored undergarments is embroidered with an “F” for Friedman the Facinator. Boxers are now available in white, blue, and a Valentine’s Day perfect pink. To buy: designow.com

2. For Her: Changeable Chargers

Sometimes it's the simplest ideas that pack the biggest punch. Tinge Daily has created stylish paper inserts you slip into acrylic chargers in round and rectangle shapes. The functionality is superb—it works as a placemat or charger—and the design is supreme, from zebras to bamboo. All you have to do is buy a new set of dailies when you change your mind, your meal, or your decor. To buy: tingedaily.com

3. For Everyone: Decadent Treats

Chocolate and Champagne might just be the perfect combination. Kick it up a notch and order the pairing of decadently rich, flavorful Vosges Chocolate exotic truffles (think Hungarian paprika and wasabi or classic flavors like hazelnut and praline) and effervescent Piper-Heidsieck. To buy: vosgeschocolate.com

4. For Her: Glowing Skin

This is the beauty product I can’t live without: Goop Exfoliating Instant Facial. It’s a cult favorite for a reason—it’s made of feel-good organic ingredients and in just 2 or 3 uses, your face instantly brightens and softens. Just look at Gwynenth’s enviable glow! It sells out quickly. If you’re on the wait list, pick up the luminous melting cleanser instead. To buy: goop.com

5. For Everyone: Stylish Stationery

There’s no shortage of stunning stationery, but Holly Hollon has really caught my eye. The award-winning Alabama graphic designer uses hand-drawn techniques to give her designs a one-of-a-kind feel. From antlers to family crests, she has a design you’re guaranteed to want to sign. To buy: dixie-design.com
