Treat Your Mum to Something a Little Special


Mothers Day: a day for us Mums to be a little spoilt. Breakfast in bed brought up by the little ones, maybe a chance to sit down and be waited on for once...well, maybe just until lunchtime. These are the little things I love but I also love a present, and never want to pass the chance by... 
So here is my (and probably my Mum's) present wish list for Mothers Day...to be forwarded on to Husbands/daughters/sons!
Starting with Clothing ideas..for Mums like me:
Jacket: Zara £89.99
Cricket Sweater: Next £35
Fitted Oxford Shirt: Gap £29.95
Trainers: New Balance £59.99
Bag: Zara £109
Cashmere Round Neck: Brodies @ Notonthehighstreet.com £89
There is nothing more luxurious than a cashmere jumper (this one is machine washable) A grey cashmere jumper will see you through every season, it can be matched with almost any colour and will be perfect for summer evenings, through to Autumn days.
River Island Perspex Belt £20.00
Slightly random, but honestly this belt looks amazing cinching in a waist, as it is perspex the colour of the clothing shows underneath and it adds a stylish twist to a black dress. I particularly like it worn over a trench coat for an evening out, remove your plain trench coat belt and add this, blingtastic!

Ideas of clothing for Grandmas:

Scarf: Jigsaw £59
Cashmere Cardigan: M&S £75
Pearl Earrings: Coast £12
Leather Bag:Jasper Conran now £55.20


A few more ideas:

Jo Malone Perfume: Peony & Blush Suede £39 (30ml)
Clarins Eau Dynamisante Shower Gel @John Lewis £19
As us Mums don't have time for Baths as much so a luxurious shower gel is a real treat.
Bluebellgray Cait small Toiletries Bag @John Lewis £22
Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colour - Rose Insolent @HoF  £18
English Garden Candle: The White Company £30

22 Stem roses: Marks and Spencer £25
Marks and Spencer Oudinot Rose Champagne £27
Bespoke Mother and Child Sketch by Letterfest: Not on the High Street.com £48
John Lewis Multi-Aperture Amelia Photo Frame £20
I try to give photo frames to family and friends with special photos in them that I have printed off, it is a really thoughtful gift and saves them having to print the photos off themselves.

That is my round up of Mothers Day gifts, what makes your Mothers Day special? 
So far Jack, my 3 year old has told me he is going to get me fireworks as we have run out?! Look forward to that useful gift!!

  9. I love the Zara bag. I went on the hunt for it on Saturday, kinda hoping it would be hideous in real life. Alas for my bank balance, it wasn't. It is absolutely gorgeous and made it home with me. I love! Thanks for the tip. Emma x
