If you're anything like me, you tend to procrastinate when it comes to holiday gifts. I rounded up some stylish (very) last-minute gift ideas for Valentine's Day for all your loved ones this season. Most can be ordered with free Amazon Prime 2-Day shipping or picked up locally, but if worse comes to worse, try writing a sweet note that shares news that the gift is on it's way.

1. Perelel Vitamins — These vitamins are great for both the men and women in your life, especially any friends or family that are planning on having a baby, are already pregnant, or are new moms. This is also a great gift to give yourself, just saying. The vitamins come in chic packaging to boot.  Get 15% off your first order with code LEFASHION15.

2. NuFACE Trinity Facial Toning Device — If you haven't seen the before and afters people are sharing on social media, it's definitely worth looking into. The lift this device gives is a big confidence booster. Shopbop offers 2-day Amazon Prime shipping or you can pick up in person at Sephora.

3. Maison Irem Kyla Chain Necklace — This trending chain necklace is great worn on it's own or layered with other pieces. Get the necklace through Shopbop with 2-day Amazon Prime shipping.

4. Kitsch Jade Roller — These rollers have become one of my go-to gifts. Even if the recipient already has one, an extra is great for their travel kit or to have on reserve chilling in the fridge. Get one from Shopbop with 2-day Amazon Prime shipping or shop this more budget-friendly option.

5. Boy Smells Candles — These candles double as décor and come in a variety of pleasing scents. You can order from Shopbop with 2-day Amazon Prime shipping.

6. Saie Slip Tint Dewy Tinted Moisturizer SPF 35 Sunscreen — This is an everyday staple in my current routine to get an awesome glow, so I am always happy to get others hooked. You might be able to get expedited shipping from Sephora, but either way you can pick it up in person at your local Sephora.

7. MERIT Clean Lash Lengthening Mascara — This is one of my top two mascaras since it's clean and doesn't smudge. You might be able to get expedited shipping from Sephora, but if not, you should be able to pick it up in person at your local Sephora.

8. Ooni Wood Fired Outdoor Pizza Oven — Gourmet personalized pizzas made right at home. Need I say more? Your loved one won't forget this and technically it's a gift to yourself if they invite you over to try it out.

9. Conversations with Friends by Sally Rooney — A recent favorite of mine and just in time to read it before the show adaptation premieres on Hulu next month.

10. Saturday Skin Pore Clarifying Toner — I swear by this toner. It has 10% Glycolic Acid which helps to smooth skin and quickly clear up acne. The minute I feel a break out coming I dab some on the spot.

11. Sunday Riley C.E.O. 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum — This is a fan favorite that "visibly minimize pores, brighten dark spots, and target signs of aging." You might be able to get expedited shipping from Sephora or simply pick it up in person at your nearby Sephora.

12. Everlane Gift Card (Digital Download) — This is a no-brainer no matter the personal style or age since Everlane carries a great variety of basics. I've always gotten great feedback with this option.

13. Rag & Bone Baby Boyfriend Dog Collar — I've never met a pet parent that doesn't want to bring their pet accessories to the next level. I love the neutral color of this pick. You can order from Shopbop with 2-day Amazon Prime shipping.

14. Isabel Marant Silara Socks — These tie-dye socks are cozy and cool. I recommend wearing them with Birkenstock sandals or Birkenstock clogs. All can be ordered from Shopbop with 2-day Amazon Prime shipping.

15. Seven Days in June by Tia Williams — This New York Times Best seller has a lot of buzz and is a Reese Witherspoon Book Club pick. Plus, it will soon be adapted for television.
