As a single Mother of almost 10 years and professional shopper for ..let’s say 20, I can certainly call myself qualified in sharing the best gifts for Mothers Day. You know the ones that your Mother will actually use and find helpful? Not hide in the basement or under the bed like your 3rd grade self portrait. Of course if your husbands reading this then diamonds, designer shoes, or a vacation to St Barths would be very appreciated, but if not then here we are.
- The Softest Pajamas (Come in short sleeved as well)
Apparently up until last year I have been living under a rock. These Gap Pajamas are affordable and literally slide on (and off) your skin from how soft they are. They are also SO affordable. I love the short sleeved ones for Hot summer days. Best part? they often have sales.
Ok depending on the relationship you have with your mom, this may be a gift you want to buy for yourself. After listening to a Sam & Billie Faiers Podcast raving about DIY laser hair removal, I was skeptical but clicked the add to cart button regardless. I have spent thousands of dollars going to professional places and word to the wise: there’s never an end date on buying more packages. So for $70 this was a steal!. What I will say is that you have to have some patience with larger areas (Think arms, legs etc) but if you use it religiously it certainly reduces shaving and the expense that professional hair removal requires.
Have a sister or family member expecting? I think this is such a cute gift idea and wish I would have had this journal when Aspen was a baby to remember all of the things (First giggle, first mama, first few steps etc). You basically summarize the most important parts of your day in a few sentences. A perfect memorabilia to look back at when your little one is not so little.
4) Eye Massager
Please name one mother in the world that didn’t like/need a massage? I was gifted this as a gift from a dear friend through treatment and immediately fell in love. Not only can you synch bluetooth and meditate with it, but it immediately distracts and relaxes you. Perfect for those stressful days running around like a headless chicken.
Personally I’m one of those people In the summer that has to sleep in freezing cold temperatures, so this blanket is definitely on my wish list. They have a bunch of colors and claim to be stein resistant and machine washable (skipping you that dreaded trip to the dry cleaner).
6) The softest workout leggings
Have a mom who loves to work out? well you’re in luck. I have had my fair share of buying lulu’s, Alo, SET, you name it I’ve bought it -and I’m here to say these $31 leggings are the ones I swear by. They’re silky soft, wash well, and cling to your skin in all the right places.
