getting a gift for your mother can be tricky, no matter her age. You want to thoroughly straddle the line between luxury and practicality; I don’t know any mothers who aren’t busy (my mom, who is retired and has two grown children, still never picks up her cell phone because she’s always out and about), and I also don’t know any who couldn’t use a little bit of a treat. combining those two ideas is what makes the ideal gifts for mom.
Below, we’ve tried to pick a dozen gifts at different price points that would work for mothers of nearly any age. They’re timeless, glamorous indulgences that will make your mother feel like a million bucks. I wish I owned many of them myself, and I don’t even have kids. If you’re searching for much more bag ideas for moms, check out our 2013 supreme Bag gift Guide.
