Heartthrobs

Heartthrobs

1. Le Creuset Enamel Casserole: From chili to beef stew, any humdrum dinner becomes a romantic meal when lovingly served up from this heart-shaped casserole.

2. J. Crew Heart Me Sweater: First Lady Michelle Obama hearts this sweater. Perhaps that's why it sold out at retail. Fortunately, there are plenty available on eBay.

3. Diamond & Gold Heart Key Necklace: Less conventional than a locket but with sentiments that are equally "heartwarming," this necklace could unlock something spectacular.

4. Roger Vivier Black Heart Booties: Worn with leggings, these bold boots become the focal point of your look. But paired with long, wide-leg pants, they're just another pair of black booties.

5. Juicy Couture Heart-Shaped Speakers: Hook these tiny speakers up to any MP3 player and play your personal soundtrack of love.

6. Pair of Love Hearts Notebooks: We'd take this pair of notebooks over a plain old office supply store number any day of the week.

7. Roger Gandelman Heart & Vine Perfume Bottle: It's hard to choose a fragrance for someone else. But even the pickiest gift recipient would enjoy a pretty perfume bottle to place on her vanity.

8. Antique Heart Frame: This ornate silver frame was produced in 1902, making it an authentic Edwardian antique. We'd use it to display only the most special wedding or anniversary photo.

9. Bulldog Trinket Box: These velvet-lined keepsake boxes are available in over two dozen dog motifs. Because a beagle lover would hardly be satisfied with a bloodhound or bulldog.

10. Baccarat Puffed Heart: The renowned crystal manufacturer's iconic glass paperweights make timeless gifts for a host of sentimental occasions.

11. Comme des Garcons Play T-shirt: Comme des Garcons Play's signature kooky logo made an appearance this fall in a wearable (and imminently popular) striped tee.

12. Diane Von Furstenberg Silk Scarf: The graphic heart print on this mod silk scarf is anything but cloying.
