When I was in high school my best friends and I had a tradition where we would buy each other gifts for Valentine’s Day. Most of the time they were just little trinkets from Shoppers Drug Mart, but it’s the thought that counts. Maybe Valentine’s Day was made up by the card companies, maybe it wasn’t. Personally I think it’s a nice excuse to show the people you love a little more love – a note, a card, a phone call or even a gift. And who better to share the love with than all the special ladies in your life: sisters, mothers, grandmothers, daughters, girlfriends, co-workers, nieces, cousins and the all important BFF. Here are She Does the City’s picks for alll of the women we couldn’t live without.
