Gift Ideas for Mother’s Day
Question of the Week: Mother’s Day is right around the corner. Share with us some of your favorite gift ideas for the moms, sisters, aunties, besties and other badass women in our lives. Depending on your budget I love everything from handmade to high-end. I LOVE when my kids make me things so I get that every year (and when they’re older and don’t want to make me things anymore I’ll be devastated). Usually my husband takes them down to the jewelry store and they each pick out a charm for my Pandora bracelet also.
I’m a firm believer in getting people what they want for any holiday, birthday or occasion. Like if you KNOW a gift card is best, just do it. Don’t worry about it not being personal. If you want personal put it in a thoughtful card and write a note inside. Everything is personal if you take the time. That being said if you’re still stuck one of my favorite beauty gadgets so far this year is the HiMirror Skincare Analysis tool. It’s pricey but not as much as you’d think and it’s REALLY cool. I also did up this gift guide and picked a few faves from Sephora.
