Celebrate the amazing mums and grandmothers in your life this Mother’s Day with a heartfelt gift — it’s really the thought that counts. To get you started, we’ve curated a selection of gifts catering to a range of different tastes and preferences. Whether your mum loves a stylish handbag, enjoys fitness, appreciates good food or has the travel bug, there’s bound to be something that she’ll love.
The fashion-forward mum
If you tend to borrow her clothes, call her for emergency fashion advice, and drag her around on your next session of retail therapy, your mum is most likely the stylist of your life. Present her with these fashionable pieces, which include an elegant garden party dress from Tory Burch, and a Coach handbag that comes with a complimentary monogramming service at its craftsmanship bar in Pavilion Elite. Just promise us you won’t steal any of these from her wardrobe.
Tory Burch garden party dress, RM1,790. Tiffany & Co T square bracelet, RM22,934. Salvatore Ferragamo scarf, RM1,590. Coach handbag, RM2,250.
The jet-setting mum
Your mum will thank you for these travel necessities, which are useful even for the most seasoned frequent flyer. We’ve picked one of the lightest yet durable packing case (in a very fun colour too), and a travel-friendly 10ml anti-ageing night cream for those long haul flights. Plus, reading material is essential to inspire some bucket-list trip ideas.
TUMI packing case, RM2,850. Eugenia Kim boater, RM750. Clé de Peau Beauté La Creme, RM670. Monocle Magazine and Musotrees are available online and in selected stockists nationwide.
The foodie mum
Whether your mum is a food connoisseur, or simply loves cooking and eating, here are some practical and fun gifts that she’ll find useful in the kitchen. American model Chrissy Teigen’s cookbook is packed with fuss-free recipes for the everyday chef. We also couldn’t resist including a lavish can of foie gras — to go with the cheese board, of course.
Cravings by Chrissy Teigen cookbook, RM134.90. OEM cheese and bread, RM194. Bingka KL tea towel, RM35. Feyel Foie Gras, RM109.
The #fitspo, gym-loving mum
Thoughtful gifts are always the best. Weight gloves are ideal if your mum does a lot of weight lifting, and needs extra support and coverage. Treat her to a post-workout meal with some wholesome, healthy granola — the maple pecan ginger packs a punch. If you’d like to spend some mother and daughter time, we’ve put together a list of scenic parks to jog at. You can also try out a private tennis lesson together.
Yogitoes yoga towel, RM280. Lorna Jane tights, RM355. Lorna Jane weight gloves, RM133. The Kettlebowl artisanal granola, RM28.
