We haven’t forgotten about lingerie. Whether you buy it to wear for your sweetheart or are its recipient, everybody wins. At Sassy Angel there’s a complete selection of inexpensive intimate apparel. They have everything from chain mail and vinyl lingerie to sexy panties and thongs to fantasy costumes. We’re guessing this will be your most enjoyable shopping spree. Looking for something a bit more demure? Check out the Undrest Ribbon Collection in soft burgundy cotton. The Brazilian cut keeps it sizzling. Hubba hubba.

 Gifts for Spouses and Long-Term Partners

Just because you’ve made the commitment doesn’t mean you don’t want chocolate tattoos, sexy lingerie and beautiful jewelry. By all means get them, and then think about sending an extravagant bouquet of flowers as an expression of your love and gratitude. There are some gorgeous choices at Martha Stewart Flowers ($35-119).

Put a twist on Valentine’s Day chocolates and give your partner a container of Romantic Fortune Cookies. The reusable take-out box is fetchingly decorated and contains 12 chocolate-dipped cookies with messages such as, “Today your kisses speak louder than words.”

And we adore the Love Letter Purse Mirror ($45). It’s silver plated and looks like a love letter. Open it and a heart-shaped pocket mirror faces you beneath the photo of your choice. Very, very romantic, yet functional.

When Money Is No Object

If the sky’s the limit this Valentine’s Day, we suggest whisking your main squeeze away for a fabulous vacation sometime soon. Romantic packages to Europe, the South Pacific, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Hawaii designed specifically for couples await at Classic Vacations. Example: a six-night Fiji island resort getaway
that includes a bottle of champagne, couples massage, and deluxe beach room, all for $2,699 per person.

A fine watch makes a lasting statement of affection. For women, we quite like Bvlgari’s B.zero1 Womens Watch ($1,050) and Gucci’s 3905 Womens Watch, (on sale for $1,377; retails at $2,295). For men, a Rolex Cellini Cestello in 18K Rose Gold ($5,625) will gently scream your love.

And getting back to lingerie, we’d be remiss if we didn’t suggest something from La Perla’s Black Label collection. The Rolls-Royce of lingerie makers, La Perla never fails to amaze. Check out Body ($353), an extremely sexy number you’ll both enjoy again and again.

Anti-Valentine’s Day Products

Recently burned? Staunchly single? Just a nonconformist? Go against the grain this year with “Valentine’s Candy for the Rest of Us.” Bittersweets ($9.95), look like traditional pastel hearts with messages, only these are for the dejected, dysfunctional and recently dumped. “Table for 1,” “I got Sober,” and “Dog is Cuter” are just a few of the sentiments. Or get a Cupid Rhymes With Stupid Mousepad ($13.99) or a You + Me = Never T-shirt ($15.99). You can also send a free Anti-Valentine’s eCard from Blue Mountain.

Whether you love or hate Valentine’s Day, we at Shopperati wish you a very satisfying Feb. 14.
