Your Girlfriends Are Going To Flip For These 15 Nostalgic Gifts For V-Day

Feb. 2, 2019

Valentine's Day is right around the corner which means you're probably doing some online shopping right about now — and that might include gifts for the most fabulous females in your life. They've seen you through it all, from heart break to heart melts. If you want to especially honor the women who've always had your back and been by your side, then these nostalgic Valentine's Day gifts for your squad are the perfect way to say, "Thanks for being my soul sister."

Whether you're in a relationship or not, sometimes you end up celebrating Valentine's Day with your girlfriends, your sisters, and your ride-or-dies. And is there anything more fun than drinking some champagne, eating pizza, and laughing over old memories and "Remember when's"? You know you've got yourself a true friend if, like you, she knows the lyrics to the Fresh Prince of Bel Air theme song by heart, and who is a card-carrying member of the Justin Timberlake fan club (circa his corkscrew bleached blond hair days, of course).

This Valentine's Day gift roundup is all about going back into the vault of the '90s and finding those special gifts that were everything to you and your friends when you were younger. Because some things never get old.

1Caboodles

From sleepovers to summer camp, packing up your Caboodle was a sacred ritual, and seeing what your friend packed in her's was equally exciting. Giving this throwback gift is the perfect way to say, "Here's to a Beautiful Friendship!"

4Take A Piece Of My Heart

Half Heart Necklace

Pasha Studio 2018

I can still remember who I gave the other half of my bff heart necklace to, even though it was more than two decades ago. It's a big deal. Show your bestie that you're ready to take your friendship to the next level with this classic token of friendship.

5Because, Alanis

This cheeky dishtowel, featuring lyrics from Alanis Morissette's seminal hit "You Oughta Know" will bring a huge smile to your friend's face. But more than being a total nostalgia piece, it also is a super useful kitchen accessory, thanks to its traditional Swedish design: it dries stiff and flat, and is soft and pliable once wet.

9Rock and Roll

'Empire Records' mug

I can't even count how many times my crew watched 'Empire Records' back in the day. From the actors to the soundtrack, it was simply the coolest. Give your "Cory" or "Gina" or "Debra" this mug, and they'll have a rocking Valentine's Day.

10Like Rockstars

'Jem and the Holograms' Retro Enamel Pin

My sister and I were straight-up obsessed with Jem and her posse of wild-haired rockers. If you still think it's magical how her earrings lit up, then yeah, you need to give this gift to someone.

You know your friend is the real deal if they think 'Saved By The Bell' is still one of the best shows of all time. Show you care this Valentine's Day by giving them these two heart throbs to rock on their earlobes.
