For those days that require leaving the bed, keep her warm from afar with a cozy scarf. This classic, two-tone scarf has four color options. It may not be the same as blankets and a warm body, but it’s something.
Dogeared Love necklace ($68) While heart jewelry may be the most overdone Valentine’s Day gift ever, embrace the cliché with style and give her this necklace. A handcrafted stone heart pendant rests at the end of a delicate chain. The heart itself looks vaguely like a fossil, with its hammered surface and slightly misshaped form, which distinguishes the necklace from its generic, often-cheesy cousins.
Fisheye camera ($48) Give her the gift that keeps on giving with this Lomography fisheye camera, which also comes in green, blue, and white. The 170-degree view compresses everything into a distorted circular image. Turn the everyday into art and see the world from a different perspective—together of course. Don’t forget to buy the film ($14).
