Gift Guide: For the Mom(s)


Honestly, out of all the people I shop for my mom is my favourite person hands down. I just feel like Christmas to her is super special, so she pretends to love it even if she hates. I definitely think Christmas is the perfect time to give her something to relax with. I decided to share some of the greatest relaxing gifts today that you can give your mom – from wine glasses to eye creams to slippers. Who wouldn’t love all of that?

Because mom’s deserve to relax and why not let her relax with a nice, big cardigan. Don’t worry though – it doesn’t look like the ones she always complains about looking too oversized.

These slippers would also look super adorable with the cardigan (especially the chestnut), or on their own with some cozy pajamas!

Honestly, I love my idiom bracelet. They’re so fun and quirky, but spice up any outfit. I always wear mine with my gold watches. Although there’s so many adorable bracelets, “heart of gold” is definitely suitable for mom. It reaches that meaningful mom gift without starting to look a bit tacky.

Candles are also so relaxing and calm. Plus, don’t deny it – we’ve all seen that meme “when you wish you could buy your mom an island but all you can afford is a candle”. Now, you could get her candle but an amazing smelling candle that she would love!
I’m personally dying to try lavender + linen, grapefruit + fig and balsam!

Raise your hand if you love wine and rose gold! Your mom probably does, too. This customizable wine glass is super cute and super thoughtful. Since it’s customizable, you can add your mom’s name or even “#1 mom” to the glass. To really go over the top, you could find out what her favourite wine is and give her a bottle with the glass.

Let’s be real – we’re likely the reason our moms have bags under their eyes, dry skin, grey hair. You name it, our rebellious teenage years likely caused it. Now, we can provide her with the help she may need to fix it. Help Me is an anti-aging cream that helps reduce wrinkles and discoloration while boosting firmness and colour tone.

This kind of goes with the Philosophy Help Me, but Lotus Eye Gel is an eye gel that helps with puffiness and dark circles. Again, our moms deserve some pampering after dealing with us ages 12-17.

Honestly, I am obsessed with this perfume. I’ve tried many and always end up going back to Marc Jacobs Daisy. It smells so nice, and it’s a classic smell too. Definitely a great perfume for all age groups.

Raise your hand if you grew up eating homemade chocolate chip cookies. Probably most did and most likely got them from their mom. Make her recipe or try a twist on a classic (see link). It’s a homemade, thoughtful yet inexpensive gift.

To make them next level, you could put them in one of these adorable cookie jars.
