Mother’€™s Day Gift Guide

Remember that Mother’s Day reminder you put on your calendar months ago? Well, now the big day is just around the corner. But worry not – PINK’s got your back with unique gift ideas to make any mom feel loved on her special day. So forget about boring stand-by gifts like a bouquet of flowers or a picture frame – here are some gifts your mom (or your best friend who’s a mom) can actually use.

Does she enjoy cooking? Uncommon Goods has gifts like bottle stoppers made with semi-precious stones and a compact Herb Keeper, so her made-from-scratch dishes will have the freshest ingredients. Pandora’s Pantry even lets you choose a premium tea and personalize theso she knows how much she means to you. Plus, part of the proceeds go to helping other women!

Does she need to kick back? Bath & Body Works offers an array of “the world’s best candles” in scents to transport her to a destination of relaxation. We can’t get enough of Jasmine Vanilla, Fresh Linen and Island Margarita.

Is she the epitome of style? Michael Kors’ Very Hollywood luxury perfume set will have her smelling like a movie star and a gold Kate Spade handbag will add some serious glam to any outfit.
