I’d heard it said that you can’t fully appreciate your mom until you become a mom yourself – and boy, have I found that to be true! They wipe butts (like you wouldn’t believe), keep tummies full, dry tears, kiss boo-boos, help with homework, often work outside of the home, and generally manage keeping the family together. The list goes on and on, but you get the point: moms are truly superheroes and should be celebrated accordingly. We’ve got some fabulous picks for every type of mom this year, so go on, treat her like the superhuman she is!

For New & Expecting Moms
Her first Mother’s Day is going to be one she remembers forever, so be sure to make it special. For new and expecting mamas, we suggest going sentimental with a baby book. Practicality is also a great play. Consider gifting her the lounge set of her dreams (I wear mine religiously) or a cooling body pillow. We also love a good baby carrier for more (hands-free) moments with the baby, as well as nutrition to fuel her pregnancy. Whether you go practical or sentimental, be sure to treat mom well – those first few months and years of motherhood are no joke!

For Fashion-Forward Moms
For the mamas that love fashion, we love the idea of gifting accessories. Sandals, basket bags, and sunnies are just a few ways you can let mom know how fabulous she is, without needing to know exact sizes. For the mama who rarely spends money on her own wardrobe (but would like to!), consider a sweet spring dress or mini skirt she can wear with just about anything. For those looking to wear their hearts on their – er, neck – we love a good custom necklace with the ability to add the birthstones of your kiddos. You know what they say: look good, feel good. And yes, mom-ing is much easier when you look good and feel good as a result.

For Foodie Moms
There’s nothing more giftable than the world’s universal love language: food! Chocolate, especially elevated chocolate, never disappoints – same with ice cream! For those that like to spend extra time chef-ing, luxe oils and vinegars are sure to delight, as is a subscription for monthly bread deliveries. Perhaps like me, mom might like to pair her time in the kitchen with a good glass of wine. With summer on the horizon, you can’t go wrong with a good rosé.

For Moms on the Go
Whether mom loves to travel or workout, if she’s on the go, we’ve got some good picks for you. Keeping her hydrated is key, so what better to do that with than a giant tumbler? We also love a good bag to ensure organization, no matter where in the world she goes. And what’s a mom without athleisure? An athletic dress with ultra-comfy fabric is sure to please and keep her keepin’ on.
For Moms Who Like to Host
We love a good party thrown by a mom! If hosting is her thing, we suggest upping her kitchen game with a new pan, glassware, or table settings. To top it all off, we recommend a beautiful bouquet of flowers (delivered straight to her, of course) or a cute doormat that’ll make her think of you each time she steps inside.
Treat Mom, She Deserves It
As a mom myself, I’d genuinely be thrilled if my kids (also read: husband) got me any of this stuff for Mother’s Day. Seriously, the mom or mother-figure in your life deserves to be celebrated, so go ahead and treat her this year. You know she deserves it! Happy shopping, friends.
