Lara Jean Covey and Peter Kavinsky (To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before)
If you are looking for something dainty and equally feminine, the offerings at the Curious Creatures With all the boys she loved before, Lara Jean Covey (Lana Condor) ’s high-school love story may seem complicated at first glance, but her tale is a widely relatable one. She and charming Peter Kavinsky (Noah Centineo) had so much chemistry that they quickly became one of our favourite on screen couples. If anything, we could take their high school, adolescent/young adult fashion sense as inspiration for a gift for your special someone.
For her, consider getting Beyond the Vines’ Short Utility Jumpsuit as a potential cute date outfit. Designed to have a relaxed silhouette, this sleeveless short jumpsuit comes with a wider leg opening and has side pockets too! For him, do away with Uniqlo’s oversized T-shirts, and instead consider getting Beyond the Vines’ Raglan Sleeve Boxy Tee, which is made from a structured cotton jersey and comes with a textured rub collar.
Otherwise, for a more cuddle-able and shareable alternative, check out their brightly-hued A World Beyond Sweater, which comes in Ginger Orange, French Blue and Clover Green colour palettes.

Pay homage to the timeless elegance of Swiss luxury watchmaking with Longines’ Conquest Heritage timepiece.

Sabrina Spellman and Nicholas Scratch (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina)
The first four seasons of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina started off with an interesting and darker narrative, but was hastily ended in its final season – well, because the series, to fans’ disappointment, got cancelled. But considering the trying and interesting relationship the series’ protagonist has with the mysterious warlock Nicholas Scratch, we thought it might be interesting to list a gift with them as inspiration.
