Our Mother’s Day Gift Guide

Some of our moms treat us to spa days, others prefer not to splurge. Some moms let us try on their vintage Chanel, while others are always planning the next big vacation. Whatever her personality, your mom deserves to be appreciated this Mother’s Day. We’ve put together a variety of personalized gift guides to help you find the perfect present for mommy dearest.

Give your chic mom (1) a cool accent mirror, a (2) classy cocktail making set, or a (3) pair of Gucci classic red pumps. Or, get her a nice set of (4) Butter nail polishes or a (5) silk DVF scarf. Want to keep it simple? Get her a (6) Breakfast at Tiffany’s DVD, starring the chicest of the chic.

Give your indulgent mom a (1) Vera Wang necklace that’s to-die-for, or get her a set of (2) wine tasting tickets. Buy her a (3) yoga pass, or splurge on some (4) Aesop-Marimekko Sauna body scrub and body balm. Let her enjoy some fine teas at home with (5) Menu’s tea kettle (with a built-in infuser and warmer), or get her a (6) bottle of Marc Jacobs’ Daisy Eau So Fresh.

Give your adventurous mom a (1) hiking guide book specific to your area, (2) redeemable ceramics classes or a (3) Coach backpack for her outdoor fun. Or, get her a nice pair of (4) Hunter rain boots or a (5) Moleskine notebook to jot down adventurous tales from her travels.

Lovable Louis

Louis Vuitton is easily one of the most adored brands in fashion, so it makes sense that the label was founded in the city of love. After getting its start in Paris, Louis Vuitton expanded to London and then eventually to the United States, just before 1900. The brand made quite the impression on American shoppers and has been a fashion favorite for decades.

Its classic look and shape makes the Louis Vuitton bag a go-to gift for many women’s graduations, birthdays and anniversaries. Although the label has experimented with styles a bit over the years, they have continually maintained their status as a must-have piece for the modern woman. That’s not to say they haven’t had their random moments (think back to the 2012 Michael Phelps ad campaign), but they’ve managed to prove that they’re here to stay. Ready to get your own LV bag?
