Back in November I announced the winners of the 2011 Giftee Awards in 10 categories. You could say, and you would be right, that I was thinking ahead when I chose Best Romantic Gift as a category. I knew you would need some Valentine's Day gift inspiration after the post-holiday lull. I and my expert panel of guest judges asked our fans to nominate and ultimately decide on the best of the best. The finalists were selected by the judges who included Stylelist Home's own Brie Dyas!
So, without further ado, here are the Top 10 Best Romantic Gifts!
