This Mother's Day....

I'm not a mom, but I have one & I love her. She's the most amazing person. She's kind, generous, considerate, brave, motivated, eats healthy, is full of life, loves me, gives to others she doesn't even know, & she loves God.
 
Actually, the list could go on & on. My mother deserves more than what I could ever give her. She's a HIP mom, always in trend & keeping up with the latest fashions. I love how she notices little things, like when I would stack my bracelets & so she did the same. She's also into COLORFUL denim, who knew?!? I love that about her!!!!!!!
 
So, this Mother's day I've decided to give her a check so she could go shopping. The past few Mother's days I bought her gifts, but this time I wanted her to get herself something. I admit, I don't always hit a home run when it comes to buying gifts, in fact I'm just NOT good at it. Are you???

I've selected a few goodies from some of my favorite online shops (there are many) & thought my mom would enjoy these! Of course, she could go elsewhere, but I saw these & thought of her. 

What are you thinking of getting MOM this mother's day??

  3. Your mom sounds like my mom--amazing! I don't have kids yet either, but I love spoiling my mom on Mother's Day. I might splurge on something Kate Spade for her this year!

    I am sure you have already done a cocoa&hearts painting for your mom, but you could give her a one of a kind painting, too!

  19. well since my mum is back in Spain she will be getting flowers from all of us, and i will treat her to dinner and lots of love when she comes over to London in June. Mums are amazing and I love mine more than anything. Happy to see my friend, ALison, pepper and salt set, they are gorgeous and selling very well.

    And that salt & pepper shaker are so unique & pretty, I'm not surprised!

  21. I'm actually really great at buying gifts for my Mom... or she's really good at lying to me about how great they are! She never, ever spoils herself, so I like to do it! Haven't figured out what I'm doing this year though.

    Love this description of your Mom...it reminds me so much of mine ;)
    I wouldn't necessarily consider myself the best gift buyer either...but I probably have the most success with my Mom since we know each other so well and I consider her my best friend.
