There are numerous ways to show yourself some self-love this Valentine's Day 2024.
But, if you’re a designer devotee like me, the ideal way of treating yourself might be with a dreamy luxury accessory.
Be it ‘Galentines’, Valentine’s, or anything in between, the love-clad occasion is the perfect opportunity to spoil yourself with a luxury adornment (or two) - particularly this year, as the romantic aesthetic is a major trend in 2024.
Following on from fashion's obsession with Barbiecore pink, corsages and Balletcore, 3D florals (particularly roses) in 2023, sultry red hues and bows (again) set to dominate this year.

How We Chose:
Style: I chose a variety of luxury pieces that have a romantic, feminine, playful aesthetic to suit the Valentine's Day theme. I chose designs that are either timeless or on trend right now.
Brands: As this is a luxury round-up, I picked accessories from coveted designer labels, which is reflected in the price point.
The best luxury Valentine's Day accessories:
Crystal Bow 110mm Pumps
Mach & Mach
With the popularity of bows this season, it would be impossible not to include a pair of Mach & Mach shoes. The satin black against dazzling crystal embellishments oozes sophisticated glamour. Whether wearing a mini dress and tights or jeans and a t-shirt, these heels are guaranteed to take any outfit to the next level.
Flower Choker
Philosophy Di Lorenzo Serafini
This new season choker from Philosophy gives last year's corsage trend the chicest upgrade. I'm obsessed with the elegant burgundy colourway.
Sweetheart Station Necklace
Kate Spade
Coloured jewellery is back with a bang for 2024, and this Kate Spade necklace makes a statement yet still exudes romantic elegance. It looks so much more expensive than it is.
Floral Silk Twill Scarf
Magda Butrym
Arguably, few designer brands do statement florals like Magda Butrym. This ultra-feminine scarf is designed with an elasticated opening to sit neatly over a bun. The easiest way to elevate your Valentine's Day updo.
Tribeca Large Metallic Quilted Leather Shoulder Bag
Michael Kors
The definition of statement chic. The metallic trend isn't going anywhere this season, and I love the quilted design of this shoulder bag. Whether you're wearing jeans and a tee or an evening-clad dress, this piece is certain to add a dash of glamour to your look.
Lola Bow Earrings
Jennifer Behr
OTT 'Mob Wife' approved accessories flooded the SS24 runways, and these earrings are equally as dramatic as they are romantic, playful and elegant.
Hangisi Flat
Manolo Blahnik
If you're looking to invest in a pair of designer shoes, Hangisi's are a no-brainer in my opinion. They're utterly timeless, not to mention add the chicest dash of subtle glamour to any outfit. Though Carrie Bradshaw-approved stilettos are the generic choice, the ballerina flat version is equally as striking for those who prefer to eschew heels.
If colour isn't on your V-Day fashion cards, then going for gold is a failproof alternative. I love this chunky ring from Versace with the logo delicately engraved on the heart.
Le Coeur Leather Shoulder Bag
Alaia
This bag completely took over celebrity and influencer style agendas last year, and it's still bang on trend for 2024 and beyond. Crafted from smooth Italian leather, it's the epitome of romance-chic.
Sweet Alhambra Heart Bracelet
Van Cleef & Arpels
I think it's fair to say every girl dreams of owning Van Cleef accessories of some sort. I am obsessed with this heart-shaped 18ct Rose Gold bracelet complete with a Carnelian stone. The ultimate heirloom gift for yourself or a loved one.
