Searching for a fresh alternative to a bundle of blooms and Himalayan salt chocolates this Mother’s Day? You are not alone on this mission (and bring those peonies and Purdy’s over to my house!). But finding a unicorn-worthy treat for the world’s greatest mum, mums or mum-figure in your life can indeed be daunting, to say the least. We’ve got you.
Sweats
Whether it’s a soft cotton graphic tee, a matching sweat set or the sweetest crewneck – nothing spells chic mama (or glam-ma!) better than casual separates emblazoned with your favourite noun (and verb). Repeat after us: cozy is cool.
The heart around ‘mom’ just might be the cutest thing ever. ‘The College’ sweatshirt comes in 7 colour options with sizes ranging from 00 through 5.
I’m completely obsessed! Style-minded mamas will deeply appreciate the scripted neckline on this putty-toned crewneck. It comes in a variety of tones and lettering styles, but this one’s my personal winner.
This Canyon-hued boxy crew is fashioned from soft-wash jersey. Not too long, not too short, just our style.
Bruh if you are blessed with teenagers, this literally needs no intro.
Necklace
From Meghan Markle and Gigi Hadid to Katie Holmes and Angelina Jolie, wearing some sort of ‘mum’ necklace has almost become a maternal right of passage. But who says they’re just for movie stars?!
Toddlers may need a little help bank-rolling the cost of this 14k yellow gold letter necklace, but mama will dig it.
Here’s your budget-friendly, alphabet-soup dupe to its pricier cousin (above). And this version layers to perfection thanks to an adjustable length. This necklace is gold-plates so for optimal wear, make sure moms takes it off before showering!
Brace for sticker shock, lil mama! Meghan Markle famously wore this hand-cast, 18-karat gold necklace to her baby shower, designed by jeweler-to-the-stars Jennifer Meyer.
Keychains
Life got a LOT easier once I started using a string of oversized beads to wrangle my keys. Wallet-friendly hack: visit your local bead shop and have your pint-sized crew make mum her own bespoke version.
This smooth, high style silicone wristlet will be a day-saver for the whole family.
Available in a variety of drool-worthy colour ways, this keychain from Ink + Alloy also doubles as a lovely gift idea for new homeowners, graduates and (oh my!) new partners who are worthy of having their own key.
Thanks to the ball-bearing end, spare keys on this classic from Tiffany & Co will easily slide on and off. Engravable if ordered by May 5th.
