I'm a firm believer that the greatest love of your life is yourself, so when you're shopping for gifts this Valentine's Day, you better not forget Y-O-U!!! It can be hard to justify spending money on yourself, especially during a holiday that's all about showing love to others, but you deserve to treat yourself and make yourself feel your best on Feb. 14.

If your ideal Valentine's Day includes a night at home, cuddling up on the couch with a face mask on, or soaking in a tub and journaling, I've found the perfect goodies for those self-care moments. If you could do without the theatrics and have been thinking about adding something new to your home, like a decor piece or life-changing appliance, I've added those, too. And, if you're ready to spend big on the person that matters most (ahem, still you), then I've added some special luxe goods that'll settle that urge.

It's easy to get wrapped up in holidays and spend every waking moment trying to find the perfect gift for your spouse or for your Galentine, so use this guide as permission to step back from the stress and think about what you would love to get. If you have a loved one or a few friends planning to gift you with something sweet, think of your gift to yourself as an added bonus.

Below, shop some of the best Valentine's Day gifts for yourself that will help you feel loved and cherished. I repeat: You deserve it!!!

Fleece Blanket

This queen-sized fleece blanket combines comfort and cute. The pom pom design adds a flare to the cozy throw that makes it look fabulous when folded up, not in use, and the soft flannel material it's made from makes it as cozy as can be when cuddled with.

If you're a fan of nights on the couch like me, you can't go wrong with this gift.
