So you don't have a sweetie to spend this Valentine's Day with. So what? Love is overrated anyway so join in the festivities with your single friends and have some fun and lots of laughs this weekend sans mushy poetry and sappy one liners. Heart candies and red roses are a dime a dozen (ok, a dozen roses may cost a little more than that) and we don't usually go about buying these for ourselves, and getting or giving something romantic and sweet to a bestie or other unattached friend can be more awkward and strange than thoughtful and appreciated. So for those of us who don't have a Valentine's this year, or who are just generally against this Hallmark created holiday, here's an array of funny, sarcastic anti-Vday gifts that are good for a laugh and will make you thank your lucky stars you don't have to deal with a Valentine's sweetie this year!

Just in case you still don't know by now, Valentine's Day is this weekend so if you still haven't really made plans or bought gifts for this holiday yet, you may want to get moving! A sure classic that is guaranteed to bring smiles on the 14th? The gift of flowers. While every girl loves to get flowers and show them off, the downside to all beautiful bouquets is that they wilt and wither far too soon. An easy and gorgeous solution? Flowers in jewelry and accessories! Even more splendid than the standard bunch of roses, floral accessories get bonus points for the added sparkle and the fact that they'll last longer than just a week. So, girls, if you'd like to get some seriously blinged out flowers that you can wear again and again, click on the slideshow and start dropping hints to your sweetie!
