    If you’re looking for Valentines gifts for him this season, you’ve come to the right place. This gift guide has all the best Valentines gifts for him according to his personality type.

    What kind of personality does your partner have? Is it anything like my husband who is the man- child stuck in the 80’s and loves everything retro gaming to pop culture from that era? Or is he a fan of tech and electronics? Maybe he is a music lover? Whatever he is, I have a gift guide that will help you find a perfect gift for him this Valentines.

    Let’s begin…

    The Techie Guy

    Koble Carl Smart Table

    There are so many gadgets and gizmo’s out there, you can sometimes be overwhelmed by what to buy. I’m no tech expert, but I like to buy my husband (yes, him again) something useful and techie-fied (not a real word, but you know what I mean). There is a really great gift I recently found that will be loved by your partner and you can reap the benefits of this too.  A Koble Carl Smart side table.  This table has:

    1. Wireless charging
    2. Bluetooth speakers
    3. USB Charging points
    4. Touch sensitive buttons to control music and
    5. It is aesthetically pleasing.

    It’s basically where your guy can put all his techie stuff and its super useful. My technology (slightly) obsessed Husband thought this was a good idea, so I assume your Valentine will love it too. 

    The Guy Who Is Always Late

    Gorgeous Velvet Alarm Clock

    He needs a clock and then there is no excuse for him to be late. I found this beautiful little bedside alarm clock from Red Candy. It’s called the Karlsson Lush velvet alarm clock and it is Lush. A thing of beauty needed for the one who is always late.

    The Worrier

    The Guy who is worried WW3 is gonna start tomorrow or the one who sneezes and thinks he’s got the CoronaVirus. You know the one who worries about everything. Well, give hime one less thing to worry about. Buy him a RFID blocking wallet from Amazon. This wallet basically protects your cards being read by handheld scanners. It’s one way of stopping electronic theft. It’s a good idea and a great gift for your Worrisome Valentine.

    The Rockstar

    Headphone Display Stand

    Or the one who thinks he’s a Rockstar. If your guy is a musician or really into his music, how about a Rock On Headphone display stand by Prezzybox. These look awesome and are great to display your headphones on. Also great if your partner is constantly mis-placing his headphones.  Accommodates both over-ear and in-ear headphones. **

    The One who likes to look after himself

    Ted Baker Manicure Set

    Does your man spend more time in front of the mirror than you? He likes to be perfectly presentable and doesn’t like a hair out of place. Then this gift is definitely for him. Get him a stylish and superbly present Ted Baker Manicure set.  An excellent little kit and it’s Ted Baker so it is stylish to a T.

    The Romantic

    Personalised Chocolates

    He’s romantic and loves the little gestures. He’s a little old school and likes the traditional. So, what could be more traditional than a box of chocolates? However this is no ordinary box of chocolates, its a romantic heart shaped personalised Valentines gift box just for him. Check out this range of personalised Chocolate gift boxes from PrezzyBox. **

    The Vegan

    If he’s Vegan, then take a look at my Amazing Vegan Gift Guide, you will not be disappointed.

    Final Opinions

    And there you have it, a round up of some great Valentines Gifts for him according to his personality.  I would say my hubby (yes, him again – I mention this guy so much you’d think I was married to him) is a mixture of the techie guy and the one who is always late. Would love to know which your partner is?

    Also tell me, what are you doing for Valentines and what is your partner getting?

    Comment here or talk to me on my social media channels, I promise I don’t bite.

    Until next time, Gift Goonie is over and out.

    Does she like Make up?

    If she does, then she will adore the ever popular and stunning Spectrum Make-up brushes. These Brushes always pop up on my time-line and have been recommended by several Make-Up Artists. They are also Vegan and cruelty free. 

    Has she got lots of jewellery?

    Ted Baker Jewellery Case

    Has you Partner got bracelets, rings and lots of sparkly things? How about getting her a pretty little Jewellery case to store all her precious (Gollums Voice) shiny things in. This Ted Baker Jewellery case is so pretty and would make a beautiful gift on its own but if you really want to be the best this Valentines then add a jewellery item like these gorgeous earrings from Jewellerybox for the perfect gift.

    Is she a bookworm?

    I’m not a big reader, but I know so many of my friends and family are, so what better present that a Kindle. You can download all the books you want and take it anywhere you want. Perfect Valentines Gift that will be loved by her. This model is also waterproof, perfect for poolside or in the bath reading. **

    Would you Partner liked to be Pampered this Valentines?

    Spa Treats

    The Majority of women (myself included) love a good pampering session. Treat your Valentine to a Spa day and Afternoon Tea by Prezzybox. Your partner will love this especially if she’s a  workaholic and needs stress relief or she’s a Mum and needs a Day off from the kids. Be kind and treat her to the relaxation she deserves. (Can you tell I have kids?) **

    The Soppy Romantic

    Personalised Keyring Couples Keepsake Box

    If you Partner loves rom coms and love cute romantic gestures then I have not one but two great ideas for you.

    Firstly you could get her this beautiful personalised keyring with an equally cute message on there.

    Secondly, You could get her this Personalised Couples Oak photo Keepsake Box. This Box can be personalised with your names and photos and is a place for her to store all the good memories of you as a couple. **

    Better still you could get both and put the keyring inside the keepsake box. Genius. And something that will be loved by her so much this Valentines.

    If she’s fun and has a good sense of humour she will love Personalised Mr Men & Little Miss Love Couples mounted on a solid wooden block. I absolutely adore this.

    And there we have it. Valentines Gifts she’ll love.  Please don’t be a boring old fart this Valentines and get your partner the same old last minute bottle of perfume or flowers from the local garage. Actually think about what your other half would like? I can’t speak for all Women, but I appreciate a thoughtful present much more than an expensive one.
