Wrapped in Friendship

On-trend Galentine’s gifts your favorite girls will love

This Galentine’s Day, it’s all about celebrating friendship in style — and the accessory trends set to take 2026 by storm. Think heart-shaped jewelry and vibrant pops of color that make each gift feel as meaningful as the bond you share. Mixed metals are the standout jewelry trend this season, with layered chains that blend dainty details and bold, chunky elements. Scarves are also having a major moment, appearing in romantic prints and vibrant pinks — knotted at the neck, draped over a shoulder or tied to a tote for an effortless Parisian edge.

And speaking of bags, this season’s handbags range from sleek single-strap shoulder styles to full-on statement pieces, trending in rosy hues and versatile neutrals that perfectly complement Valentine-inspired wardrobes. Galentine’s gifting can also lean cozy, with stylish beanies and fashion-forward plush socks that feel both practical and on trend.

For friends with a bolder sense of style, add a Western-inspired twist: think the perfect cowgirl hat paired with an eye-catching statement belt to add flair to any look. These pieces don’t just accessorize an outfit — they celebrate connection, making them the perfect way to toast friendship and unforgettable style this season.
