With Valentine’s Day rapidly approaching, take a look at these six gift ideas and avoid that last-minute shopping stress.
Personalized jewelry

Choose jewelry engraved with children’s names or a special date for something they will wear every day. UAE-based Fabula Jewels offers custom options.
Sports gear

If your partner enjoys a particular sport, like horse riding, upgrading essential gear — from helmets to boots — is an option. Saudi label Ouma Horse produces riding equipment.
Intentional pick

Skip the spa or gift set and opt for a product from a brand they already use — such as a fragrance they have finished and not replaced, like one from Saudi brand Gissah.
Bucket-list trip

If your partner has a specific trip on their bucket list, such as a visit to AlUla, this is the time to book it. Travel dates can be at any time.
Photo book

Create a coffee table-style photo book using images from a trip, occasion or experience. Services such as Pixory deliver across the Middle East.
Make a reservation

If there is a restaurant they have long wanted to try, such as The Globe, or a performance they want to attend, book it in advance.
