No one deserves it more.
When it comes to memorable Mother’s Day gifts, you’ve done the flowers and brunch reso routine again and again — now it’s time to up the ante. These splurge-y picks — silk pyjamas, designer earrings and a 24k gold-infused face mask among them — are the kinds of luxurious Mother’s Day gifts she wouldn’t ordinarily scoop up for herself.
Read on for knock-it-out-of-the-park presents that’ll satisfy her taste for the finer things.
What to look for in the best splurge-y Mother’s Day gifts
Sky’s the limit when budget is but a number. For the most deserving mom, get creative and go all out on a highly idealistic (but undeniably desirable) designer handbag she’s been coveting; a splashy soy wax candle that’ll transport her to a more Zen moment; or an island-hopping vacay where the only must do on the agenda is to relax. The goal with these luxurious Mother’s Day gifts is to find a special something that’ll make her say “wow.”
Bottega Veneta Cha-Cha Slipper
Call them a classic: Spoil mom with these beautifully notched, open-back slippers that elevate every single piece they’re paired with. Seriously, she could be in her go-to school drop-off uniform — jeans and a tee, natch — and these would help her feel polished and put-together even as she’s extinguishing a major morning meltdown.
Fritz Hansen Ikebana Vase
We can’t think of a more soothing pursuit than ikebana, the Japanese art of arranging flowers. With this hand-blown vase by Danish design house Fritz Hansen, there’s no experience required. Thanks to a freestanding plate that coddles each and every stem, this stunning on-its-own structure yields blooming results every time.
Clé de Peau Beauté Precious Gold Vitality Mask
Clé de Peau’s good-as-gold mask promises to address the visible signs of aging associated with a busy lifestyle — sound familiar for the always-on mother figure in your life? Imbued with dullness-alleviating gardenia extract and its proprietary 24K Gold Infusion with major antioxidants, it would be a very welcome treat to her self-care rotation.
Dyson Airstrait Limited Edition Straightener in Ceramic Pink/Rose Gold
The game-changing Dyson Airstrait is back in yet another nearly-sold-out, limited edition colourway: pale, pearly pink. You know the drill: no hot plates, no heat damage — just high-pressure airflow that allows her to go from wet to naturally straight without a time-consuming blow-dry in between. Expect smooth, glossy hair with plenty of movement.
Dior Tribales Earrings
Everyone’s got a pair of special occasion earrings that make them feel like a million bucks. And while you won’t serve up quite that much for these coveted Dior earrings, they will return that same swanky sentiment for a much-deserving mom. A contemporary play on pearl drops, this version makes use of white resin pearls encapsulated by the iconic CD emblem.
Gucci GG Super Mini Shoulder Bag
The chances of mom purchasing a very pretty but highly impractical bag for herself on a whim? Extremely low. Exactly why unwrapping this petite Gucci beauty in a robin’s egg blue and latté colourway will bring such unbridled joy. Consider it her next phone-keys-and-credit-card carrier.
Canada Goose Annex Liner Jacket Black Label
A splurge, yes, but a cool-and-classic outerwear piece will live through plenty of seasons, always feeling fresh every time it’s pulled out. This one from Canada Goose — lightly insulated and fully reversible from a heritage quilt to a clean finish — gives off the air of a rich lady who dutifully tends to her country home’s gardens. Chic!
Celine Triomphe Oval Sunglasses
For hiding the proof of a very long kids-up-all-night night alone, every mom deserves a pair of statement sunnies in her style arsenal. Celine’s retro-inspired frames are guaranteed to do the trick. Perfectly balancing a throwback shape with contemporary design codes — plus that instant-face-brightening watermelon colourway — this pair is worth every penny.
Tata Harper Facial at Etiket
Next-level news: Montreal beauty curator Etiket’s newest outpost at The Well in Toronto is also home to the country’s only spot for Tata Harper’s 100 per cent natural high-performance facials. Indulge mom in this glow-getting “experience” gift, which includes a gua sha lymphatic massage done in one of the location’s dreamy treatment rooms.
Prada Poplin Shirt with Fringed Collar
We’re all about the practicality of a capsule wardrobe filled with closet classics, but sometimes, as a routine-restrained mom, you want to dish out on something different. This right-from-the-runway piece takes the poplin dress shirt and tempers the billow-y menswear proportions with a contrasting, full-fringe collar that delivers delicious movement. It gives “I’m not a regular mom, I’m a cool mom” energy in the very best way.
A Stay at Cali Mykonos
The ultimate splurge-y surprise for mom? Handing her a fully formed itinerary for the Greek Isles. Book her into the Cali Mykonos, a new, eco-minded boutique hotel with a focus on mind-calming experiences. Some highlights? Grecian cooking classes, chartered yacht excursions along the Aegean and the largest infinity pool in all of Mykonos. Divine!
Piglet in Bed Plum Wine Amberley Stripe Linen Bundle
When we let ourselves dream about indulging in the little luxuries of life, soft, sumptuous, downright swanky bedding is up there. Piglet in Bed’s French countryside-inspired cotton-linen bundle — specifically blended for both comfort and durability — is one where mom can get a good night’s sleep in style.
SMEG Tilting Stand Mixer
Still hand-mixing that chocolate chunk shortbread? A chore of her past with SMEG’s perfectly ‘50s-style stand mixer in the picture. Outfitted with contemporary conveniences like a 600-watt motor for max processing performance, this kitchen counter stunner will undeniably level up her baking prowess
The Maker Gardener Candle
Nothing like a bougie bougie to deliver big on would-never-buy-it-for-themselves potential. A fragrant dispatch from the CN Traveller-approved Maker Hotel in upstate New York, this environmentally conscious pick highlights earthy notes of mint, basil and zingy bergamot. Every time she sets it alight, it’s like an escape through a sun-dappled Mediterranean garden.
Olivia Von Halle Silk Frog Emeli Pyjama Set
Everyone — especially a sleep-strapped mom — is worthy of a truly luxurious set of pyjamas once in their lives. Olivia Von Halle’s decadent, celeb-beloved loungewear is exactly what she’ll want to wake up in. Crafted in a medium-weight silk that suits all seasons, this shorts set is covered in a graphic treefrog motif that’ll feel current forever.
Michael Michael Kors Bedford Travel Extra-Large Logo Stripe Weekender Bag
A chic weekend getaway for mom is only as care-free as the vessel she transports her must-haves in (read: that seen-better-days backpack she resurrected from the newborn days is not it.) Make her travel as low-stress as possible with a roomy bag like the ultra-refined Bedford, a coated canvas duffle that’ll keep all her things stylishly put together.
bluboho Cosmic Love Bangle
A coveted heirloom piece in the making, bluboho’s solid 14k recycled gold bangle is permeated with bigger celestial meaning. It’s hand-set with brilliant white baguette and star-shaped diamonds to remind us of the “enormity of love moving through us all.” Get it as the ideal stack starter or a special piece she can sport all on its own.
Apple Watch Series 9
Say hello to a smartwatch that’s as smart (and hard-working) as she is. The latest Apple Watch Series 9 offers real-time insights into your physical and mental health (like workout metrics, sleep stages and state of mind), and lets you stay connected through call, text and even audio streaming when your phone isn’t around. Plus, with its pretty pink aluminium case, this piece is a standalone accessory all its own.
U Beauty The Super Intensive Face Oil
Yes, this liquid gold is as good as you’ve heard. U Beauty’s oil-hydrator hybrid imparts mega moisture that’s gratifyingly silky and instantly sinks into the skin. A cocktail of tried-and-true ingredients (avocado oil, vegan squalene, peptides and hyaluronic acid among them) supe up your skin’s glow, and at just under $250 a bottle, this soon-to-be-staple skincare hero will be a much appreciated luxurious Mother’s Day gift.
