A London-based art director and self-confessed shopaholic, I based my surprise gifting subscription service NOTANOTHERBILL on the idea of the enjoyment you get from receiving a beautifully wrapped and carefully curated surprise present in the post. So that's what my subscribers get every month (something that is not another bill). |

I source my presents from far and wide with the aim of introducing great new artists, designers and brands. And so farfetch.com thought I was the perfect person to help you with gift ideas this Valentine's Day.
So here are a few of my Valentine's gift selections from the wonderful world of farfetch.com.... |

I'd suggest you forget the clichés - chocolate, red roses and dodgy mix tapes. Valentine's Day for me is about showing you care through interesting and insightful presents, presents that don't have to be red or have hearts all over them. Presents that surprise and delight. |

Ok it's only February and still freezing cold but even that shouldn't stop long, romantic cycles on the Handmade Bike from Société Anonyme. |

For instance, you could just write a lovely letter or even wrap something old up with a beautiful label. And if you are buying presents or flowers think about how they are presented, it doesn't take much to make them feel different and unique - a little bit of tissue paper, brown paper or string will make them feel special (even if they are from the local garage!). |

Let's face it, it's not Valentine's Day without champagne, so what better place to keep it in than this cool, round leather cooler. |

It shouldn't just be on Valentine Day you send a card – keep the romance by sending them all year with this Lanvin Airmail set. |

I am a huge fan of Carnovsky's work, and we're actually working on an exciting project together for NOTANOTHERBILL. I love how original his work feels, and print like this would make anyone's Valentine's Day. |

This scent would make a great Valentine day present for any man, although my girlfriend seems to wear mine more than I do! |

| These retro Walkman headphones are so good for listening to your soppy love songs - or real music! |

| There's no better way to start Valentine's Day than with breakfast in bed. Breakfast on this Fornasetti tray would go down even better though. |
