What is White Day?
Starting off as a day for Japanese women who sent out gifts during Valentine’s Day to receive gifts from their lovers in return, White Day falls on March 14, exactly a month after Valentine’s Day. Traditionally, people would receive confectioneries on White Day, and sometimes other white items like marshmallows, handkerchiefs, and jewelry. This holiday was once celebrated locally by the Japanese, but it is now also celebrated in some other East Asian countries like China and South Korea. Previously a holiday celebrated by couples, White Day is now a holiday that celebrates reciprocity, even between non-lovers.
Even if you’re not living in the countries that typically celebrate White Day, you can still immerse in the spirit of this holiday by reciprocating love.
Something Fluffy
Looking for something for a cuddly person? What’s better than a fluffy plush pillow? With four different colors to select from, this faux fur cushion is decorative and adds a splash of color to your gift receiver’s living space.
Something Aromatic
Floral, woody, fresh or oriental. If you know your gift receiver’s preference for fragrance, scented candles would be a great gift. Whether it’s a friendly afternoon tea, or a romantic date night, this creamy scented candle with a hint of rosy aroma guarantees quality time with your gift receiver.
Something Handmade
As the finishing touch to a put-together outfit, pieces of jewelry add the right sprinkle of self-expression to one’s fashion. Picking out the right jewelry as a gift for someone shows the amount of care and thoughts you put in. Here’s a dainty gemstone bracelet, handmade by Cambodian artisans, for someone who likes elegant accessories to go with their outfits.
Something Functional

Something Fishy?
Instead of the elegantly wrapped chocolates, how about something a little more fun? Something like this chocolate fish!
