Filed under: Apparel, Handbags, Jewelry, Holiday Guides, Luxury Shopping

Handbag Hanger
Moms are the glue that holds the world together. They work hard all year to keep us happy and healthy, sacrifice their own well-being for ours on a regular basis, and just generally smooth over the rough edges of life to make it all a little more bearable. Celebrate your mom this holiday season and show her how much you love and appreciate her with one of our luxe and pampered holiday gift ideas.


Spring Street Design Group 'Garden Critters' Handbag Hanger, $32
Handbag hangers are one of those little luxuries that women love to have but never think to buy themselves. This one, depicting a pretty bejeweled dragonfly, brings a cheerful dose of sparkle to any table along with a reminder of warmer spring days to come.

Gwen Stefani's Gucci Baby Sling

Filed under: Celebrity Shopping

Gwen Stefani opted for a more traditional baby sling instead of the ones that look like they're made from scrap fabric that so many celebrities have been opting for lately. The Gucci Baby Carrier that Kingston is tucked into has adjustable straps and is covered in beige logo fabric with a brown leather trim. Gwen is a woman who has always had a keen eye for style, and it's nice to see that motherhood won't be slowing her down in that department. Price: $760.

Accordion Locket, Mother's Day Gift of the Day

Filed under: Jewelry

Sometimes the best gift for mom is one that can be personalized and this Accordion Locket from Red Envelope does that in two ways. The 1/2" x 3/4" x 1 1/8" sterling silver locket unfolds vertically to reveal space for four tiny pictures. Unlike more traditional lockets, which can only ft one or two photos, it has plenty of room for every member of the family - without trying to squish everyone into one shot. The locket can also be monogrammed with a single letter for an additional $5 for that extra special touch. Price: $85.

Mom & Love Bud Vases, Mother's Day Gift of the Day

Filed under: Decor

These tiny ceramic vases don't need to be big to deliver their short, sweet message. Sold as a pair, one reads "mom" and the other, "love." The vases are designed by artist Beth Mueller and the sketches that adorn them are hand painted. Each piece is only 4-inches high, but the size makes them into a keepsake that is easy to find room for. Mom can even keep them on her desk or bedside table, with one or two of her favorite flowers tucked inside, so she can think of you every day. Price: $25.00.

Ten Reasons I Love Mom Truffles, Mother's Day Gift of the Day

Filed under: Dining

Looking for a great gift for your mom? This box of chocolate truffles from Red Envelope might be the ultimate Mother's Day gift because it is candy and a card all in one. Inside the large gift box that bears the message "Mom: Ten reasons I love you," there are ten small boxes that are inscribed with a different reason to love mom. The messages include "You let me believe ketchup is a vegetable" and "You give great hugs." The best part - assuming that your mom is a chocolate fan - is that each box contains a delicious chocolate truffle topped with a bit of edible, 24-karat gold. Price: $32.

We know it's the thought that counts, but when the thought  includes chocolate it's hard to go wrong. And your mom would probably agree.
