Ah, Valentine's Day; the day that is traditionally dedicated to splurging on gifts and chocolate and showing your love to the significant other in your life. Except, this day doesn't have to be about that significant other that you may or may not have. Instead, today can be a day to show your best friend how much they mean to you, whether it is through a gift, a card or a mocha at Starbucks. These gift ideas will help you express your appreciation for your best friend this February 14th.

1. Poetry books

Poetry books, such as Rupi Kaur's "The Sun and Her Flowers" and "Milk and Honey" are becoming extremely popular among the younger generations due to the relatable stories told through poems. You and your best friend can bond over the emotions that these books will elicit.

2. Matching BFF bracelets

The classic and eccentric best-friend-bracelet-and-necklace trend is back. The perfect way to never forget the strength of your friendship is to get each other matching best friend bracelets.

3. Candles

Let's be real. Who doesn't love a tasteful and aesthetically pleasing candle that comes in an array of scents? Also, if your best friend doesn't have a boyfriend, you can buy her a candle that smells like a man's cologne. Not creepy, but nice.

4. Face masks

Whether it's a charcoal mask or one of tea tree oil infused with aloe vera, you can't go wrong with a face mask as a gift. Plus, you can do them together and chat all about the ups and downs of life (and Valentine's Day) during your holiday girls' night in.

5. A drink at the bar

You definitely don't need a guy to buy you a drink, so why not buy one for your best friend? Dress up, go out and splurge on drinks at the latest fine dining restaurant to celebrate your friendship.

6. Photo collage

The perfect way to capture all of your wild and crazy memories together is by making your best friend a photo collage full of pictures of the two of you.

These gift ideas are just a few examples of the ways that you can show your appreciation for the friendship you have with your close pals on this Valentine's Day, especially if you don't have a significant other. American academic and humorist Gina Barecca once said, "It's not that diamonds are a girl's best friend, but it's your best friends who are your diamonds. It's your best friends who are supremely resilient, made under pressure and of astonishing value. They're everlasting; they can cut glass if they need to." BBFs for life, right?
