Mothering Sunday is right around the corner — Sunday, March 14. We all know the most valuable Mother's Day [1] gift is quality time. But if presence is already in abundance between you and the mum in your life, then we've found some treats that she will absolutely love.
There are a few gifts that are sure to inspire a smile — jewellery, fragrance, small leather goods, and decor. When it comes to jewellery, we've handpicked two pieces from Missoma [2] and Alighieri [3] that would suit either a lover of minimal, classic jewellery or a woman who loves to rock a conversation-starting piece. If you're unsure about her jewellery style, then a jewellery travel case from Pandora [4] or a gorgeous piece of vintage home décor is a good shout.
If the mum in your life loves a beautiful scent [5], then have a look at one of Jo Malone's much-loved fragrances or a nontoxic, relaxing candle from Byredo. Is she a lover of luxury fashion? Then why not spoil your mum with a luxe card holder — we are loving ones from Gucci. For the mum with a good sense of humour, we've found some great plant pots in the shape of bums and breasts that'll add personality to any garden or indoor nook. And for a gift that's perfect for anyone, surprise her with a beautiful bouquet from Sage Flowers.
Ahead are 15 mum-approved gifts, starting at £25 for a pretty jewellery box and up to £350 for a sophisticated statement vase — happy shopping, and happy Mother's Day [6]!
Les Fleurs Studio Lime Green Ceramic Vase
Don't just get your mum flowers, get them something chic to put it in, like the Les Fleurs Studio Lime Green Ceramic Vase [8] (£79).
Pandora Pink Medium Jewellery Box
The Pandora Pink Medium Jewellery Box [9] (£25) is one of those incredibly useful gifts your mum would probably never buy herself.
My Lady Garden Bouquet Making Workshop
We're obsessed with My Lady Garden's floral arrangements, which are always full of bold colours and interesting textures. And this Mother's Day [10], the brand is shipping its bouquets nationwide — like My Lady Garden Honey Honey Bouquet [11] (£50 and up) — all of which are adorably inspired by ABBA, which reminds founder Kai Kaimins of singing in the car with her mum. Even more adorable? My Lady Garden's Bouquet Making Workshop [12], which you can do with your mum even if you're not able to visit her this Mother's Day. Choose from two options: BYOB (bring your own blooms) or let the Ladygarden team send you both flowers on Sunday morning, 14 March at 11am, so all you have to do is make some mimosas and get arranging.
Alighieri A Flash of Lightning Necklace Emerald
Aligheiri is a favourite of the fashion crowd, and won The Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design in 2020. The brand's conceptual jewellery is one of a kind, like the Alighieri A Flash of Lightning Necklace Emerald [13] (£300), which your mum will cherish for years to come.
Byredo Bibliotheque Candle
With their chic jars and luxurious scents, any Byredo candle makes a great gift. Right now we're in love with the Byredo Bibliotheque Candle [14] (£31-£59), which features notes of peach, plum, peony, and violet, blended in a base of leather, patchouli and vanilla.

Diamonds are a great way to remind the mum in your life how special she is to you. We love the Vashi Foundations Round Four Claw Pendant [21] (£480) because you can modify the carat of the round diamond pendant to fit within your price point, and the design is so minimal and delicate.

The Sezane Leon Jumper [22] (£100) is a classic wardrobe staple your mum will wear for years to come.

Carolina Herrera Mini Tint Balm
Part tinted lip balm, part stylish accessory, the Carolina Herrera Mini Tint Balm [33] (£24.50) is our latest makeup obsession. Like all of the lip products in the Caroline Herrera beauty range, you are able to customise the tube, choosing from a range of colourful caps and bases (so for instance you could choose a yellow cap and a blue base). And if you're buying this as a gift, you can also pick up a key ring and charms to accessorise your miniature lip tint ... or tints. We're fond of Carolina, a juicy sheer red, and Fearless, a transparent hue that reacts with your pH to create a subtle pink tint.
