With Mother’s Day fast approaching, I’m pausing to reflect on my deep appreciation for everything my mom and all the mother figures have done to guide me through this crazy journey of life so far. Since I became a mother myself, my level of respect and admiration for all mothers out there has skyrocketed. I could not be more in awe.
We give and show our love year-round, but Mother’s Day presents us with a perfect moment to express our gratitude with an intentional gift, a small indulgence perhaps that she wouldn’t usually buy herself.
To get inspired this Mother’s Day, I asked the most stylish women I know, some of whom are parents themselves, to share the gifts they’d love to give to their own mothers this year and things they’d like to receive themselves. From vintage-inspired place mats for the home to luxurious satin shoes for their closet, these gift picks are thoughtful and chic and will spark some ideas for your own Mother’s Day gift shopping. Keep scrolling to get inspired.
