Who runs the world? Girls. Beyonce may have been on to something when she wrote those lyrics, as we all know that strong women and mothers make all the difference in our lives and the world. With Mother’s Day around the corner, you’ve likely got what to get the special mothers in your life as a gift that day. You want to purchase something that shows how much you care and how well you know her. You can’t just throw chocolates and a bouquet at her and call it a day now, can you? Let us look at some Mother’s Day gifts that will undoubtedly knock it out of the park and knock her socks off.
A Luxurious Handbag
Moms are known for having their own tiny universe in their purses. She’s got the whole world in her hands from pacifiers, snacks, hand sanitizer, and probably some crushed-up Cheerios. Help her graduate from her beat-up diaper bag or older handbag to a designer one. Take into consideration her tastes – inner rebel, minimalist, classic, or punk rock. Wherever she falls on the spectrum of style, there’s a luxe handbag just waiting for you to buy for her. Besides, the purse is the cherry on top of any great outfit, and you want to help her feel and look good this Mother’s Day.
Baby Botox
Being a mother is the most challenging job in the world – we’ve all heard this phrase a million times because it’s true. All those late nights and hard work can take a toll on us, no matter how diligent our skincare routines are. If you know the mom, you’re shopping for someone who would love to get some Botox or other injectables but doesn’t have the budget for it or wouldn’t dream of splurging on it, look up some local plastic surgeons and book her an appointment. Trust me, and she won’t take it as an insult; she’ll be thrilled to look wide awake and well-rested without having to slather on eye cream and undereye concealer every day.
Fine Jewelry
Nothing says “I love you” like a piece of fine jewelry. Because just like love, fine jewelry is precious and timeless. Investing in a piece of jewelry you know she’ll love is nothing compared to mothers’ investments and sacrifices in raising their families. Consider her tastes when shopping for jewelry, and select something you know she’ll want to wear daily. Great daily pieces of fine gold jewelry like dainty hoops, a cuff bracelet, or stud earrings are great options. When it comes to jewelry, you also have the potential for these to become heirloom pieces, making it an even more perfect Mother’s Day gift as it’ll stay in the family.
A Kid-Free Vacation
While it’s true that mothers don’t love anything in the world as much as they love their children, that doesn’t mean that they don’t need a well-deserved break from time to time. If the mother you’re shopping for this year hasn’t had a vacation without her kids in tow since they were born, give her the extravagant gift of a solo getaway or with a friend. Offer to watch her children for her while she enjoys some much-needed time to unplug and relax. Even if it’s just for a weekend out of town, this is a present any mother will enjoy – even though she’ll be missing her kiddos after the first six hours.
An Electric Car
If you’re the spouse of the mother you’re celebrating this year, why not get her a new car? The two of you have put a lot of miles running your children from school to extracurriculars and everywhere in between. Not to mention the errands she’s likely running in the car on top of driving to work each day. Giving her the gift of a new car shows how much you appreciate all that she does. Going the route of an electric vehicle is a bonus gift to another mother – Mother Earth.
While this list of gifts may seem extravagant, moms are worth it. Besides, after the last couple of years, she deserves a little bit of a splurge this year! Happy Mother’s Day!
