Skip the silly Valentine's Day lingerie and his and hers pajamas for something you might wear for more than a night. (Getting two sets of Star Wars PJs is still sort of his and hers, right?) So maybe pop culture pajamas from your favorite TV shows and movies aren't overtly "V-Day", but they're practical and personal gifts that your partner (who can't seem to stop watching Golden Girls) will love!
