While most people know about that couples holiday that falls on Feb. 14, the day after Valentine’s Day is a lesser-known (possibly totally made up) holiday that honors the uncoupled among us.

Yes, Singles Awareness Day 2021, not to be confused November’s Singles Day, is currently trending on Twitter.

The hashtag #SinglesAwarenessDay is flooding social-media platforms, with nearly everyone getting in on the viral act — from “The Simpsons” and booze podcasters to porn stars and cat lovers and, well, flat out furry foxes.

Perhaps this can be a reminder for us to love ourselves and to treat ourselves, too. Self-love comes in many different forms, from taking time out of your day to learn a new skill, relaxing with some self-care or spending time with a loved one at home doing something that brings you joy.

However, sometimes all it takes is some retail therapy, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

Take a look at our top picks below, from sweet treats to self-care essentials, luxury goods to inspirational must-haves for anyone who needs a reminder to love themselves this Singles Awareness Day.

You heard the candle, it’s time to treat yoself.
