What to Buy Mom When She Swears She Doesn’t Need Anything

April 30, 2018

MOTHERSDAY-10

Mother’s Day is right around the corner. The women who inspire us with their strength and support us with their love deserve the world, but when you can’t quite put a bow around that, spoil her with something she might not splurge on herself.

We make it a point to honor women every day, but the motherly figures in our lives guide us and teach us and have made us into the women we are today, and they deserve special thanks. This Mother’s Day, gift her something to show how grateful you are for all that she does.

Plus, receive a complimentary bottle of our Jenni Kayne x Earth Tu Face Body Wash when you spend $350, while supplies last.

For the mom who’s always taking care of everyone else…

…give her permission to put herself first with everything she needs to have a spa day at home. Slippers are classic, but ours are no ordinary pair. Suede and shearling are the ultimate indulgence, and she’ll love putting her feet up in these the moment she gets home. Aromatherapy is one of the best ways to relieve stress—opt for our candles, hand-poured with notes of calming, earthy aromas. You can’t go wrong with a striped linen bathrobe or a cozy alpaca throw—classic indulgences that she’s sure to cherish for years to come.

For the mom who loves to travel…

…opt for en route essentials. Sunglasses by Garrett Leight take her from flight to final destination in style. One of our favorite fellow female designers, Janessa Leone weaves hats from natural straw that draw on classic silhouettes made for strolling in the sun. Our Italian-made saddle bags are the ultimate carry-on companion, and with a detachable pouch that snaps right inside, she’ll never misplace her passport again.

For the mom with a museum membership…

…add to her gallery wall. We collaborated with Tappan to bring two exclusive edition prints from photographer Marc Gabor, whose work nods to the natural world in soft and soothing tones. For an art object that’s as practical as it is beautiful, go for stoneware handmade by Victoria Morris. An artist and a craftsman, Victoria’s work is renowned for her beautiful glazes and wabi-sabi philosophy—which, when you think about it, is the perfect way to thank the woman who taught us that flaws are just the part of us that makes us unique.
