The last gift guide of the season…and this one’s for the mamas! Whether you’re shopping for your mom, sister, wife, best friend (or creating your own wish list), I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite gift ideas that any mom is sure to love – trust me, I am one, so I know what I’m talking about. :)
Pinky Up Tea
Pinky Up Tea was created in Seattle, WA by three inventive women who wanted to indulge…guilt free. They designed a luxury tea collection that tastes as good as it sounds with flavors like – Hibiscus Rose Hip, Lavender Sorbet and Creme Brûlée, among many other delectable varieties. In addition they have a darling Teapot, Mug, Diffuser and Spoon collection (which I featured on Insta Stories). Treat a mama to a delicious dose of tea with Pinky Up!
LuLaRoe
LuLaRoe recently hit the market and has completely reshaped how many women shop. It allows independent consultants to run their own businesses, hosting pop-ups, online sales, etc. I am fortunate to have a best friend who owns her own LuLaRoe boutique so I can shop my favorite styles anytime, which include the Cassie skirt (pictured above), Carly dress (pictured here) and the Amelia Dress (pictured here). The sizes range from XXS – 3XL with a Men’s and Kid’s line also available. It’s hard to find a woman not familiar with LuLaRoe…so I promise you…this is a mom’s jam. You can purchase gift certificates by contacting Jenny Hyde at lularoejennyhyde@gmail.com or go HERE!
Kendra Scott
If you read THIS post, you know I am obsessed with Kendra Scott. From earrings, to necklaces, to cuffs, Kendra Scott has perfected modern glam. One of my very favorite pieces in the collection is the Rayne Gold Pendant, which can be customized via their Color Bar! You can even add layer pieces to include birth stones. If you get your favorite mama a Kendra Scott – I promise she will be smitten!
Bissinger’s
Bissinger’s is one of the most notable chocolatiers in history, dating back to 17th century France. They still make their chocolate in small batches using copper kettles, preserving old world techniques. And their chocolates taste like pure heaven. My favorites include the Dulce De Leche, Coconut Caramel & Coffee Toffee. Available at Metropolitan Market, Fred Meyer and QFC, Bissinger’s would make great stocking stuffers or added to a wine lover gift basket (p.s. mom’s also love wine). Cheers!
Ankit
Ankit is one of my very favorite shops for all things fun and unique. For your fitness mamas, they’ll appreciate the happy hour sentiment – because an hour at the gym (also known as a mom break) feels.so.good. Give her this water bottle to remind her to take that break! You can also check out the rest of their gifts under $25 HERE!
Date Night
Moms want date nights. Once you have kiddos you have a newfound sense of appreciation for mess-free dinners…and cocktails. Get your favorite mom out of the house and send her on a date night with her special guy (or make it a girl’s night out!). One of my favorite restaurants in Seattle is Urbane at Hyatt Olive 8 that has a menu fit for a queen. Highly recommend this gift, my friends!!
I hope this gift guide has inspired you to spoil the mama in your life! She deserves to be celebrated!
