Valentine's Day shoppers still searching for the perfect gift have plenty of options, according to lifestyle expert Jon Salas, who recently shared his top recommendations for romantic celebrations in South Florida.
1800 Flowers
Flowers remain the classic choice for Valentine's Day, with 1-800 Flowers celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. The company plans to deliver 17 million stems during the holiday, with 10 million being roses. Red roses continue to dominate, representing 55% of all flower orders, while hot pink roses have gained popularity for celebrating friendships.
"These bouquets are carefully curated by local florists and hand delivered by them, so it's a good way to shop local while also treating your Valentine," Salas said.
The contemporary Valentine's red rose and hot pink rose bouquets range from $79.99 to $174.99 and are available at 1800flowers.com.
Rebecca Allen
For fashion-forward gifts, Salas highlighted Rebecca Allen's Sugar clogs, featuring a flexible heel strap and one-inch platform crafted in luxury vegan leather. The black-founded and woman-founded brand creates elevated footwear designed for real life, from morning meetings to daily errands. For more information, visit rebecca-allen.com.
