Ah, Galentine's Day. "It's the most wonderful day of the year!" It's a day devoted to ladies to celebrate our lady friends and gal pals, as created by the fictional character Leslie Knope in Parks & Rec. And now, Galentine's Day has become a national holiday celebrated by real-life women every February 13.

As Leslie puts it, "Every February 13th, my lady friends and I leave our husbands and our boyfriends at home, and we just come and kick it, breakfast style. It's like Lilith Fair, minus the angst. Plus, frittatas."

In honor of Leslie and Galentine's Day, we wanted to share some sweet and meaningful gift ideas that your BFFs will love. From self-care products to wine and everything else in between, give your lady friends some much-needed love this Galentine's Day.
