    Last-Minute Mother's Day Deliveries To Keep You On Mom's Good ...

    So it's Friday already and you're kinda sorta giftless for Mother's Day -- which is in fact this Sunday, no matter how much you wish you could buy yourself another week to shop. If you're close enough to your mama to see her on the big day, you know there's no way she'll let you into the house empty-handed, unless the mailman has already delivered the gift on your behalf, and a long-distance mom probably won't be any more forgiving if the day passes her by with not so much as a flower in sight. It's okay, you're human, and it's perfectly understandable for such an occasion to slip your mind, in my opinion... but I'm not the one you'll have to beg to for forgiveness! But don't fret yet, my fashionably forgetful friend -- the 'net has loads of thoughtful deliverable gifts that can fix your memory slip just in time (as in, before your mom replaces you as her favorite) as long as you act fast! With an array of edible treats like a set of hand-dipped strawberries that's almost too cute to eat (almost) or an at-home spa kit gift basket that will make sure Mom feels like royalty on her special day, no one will suspect that such a timely, gorgeous gift was really a last-minute desperate effort to stay out of the doghouse! Take a look at the slideshow for some Mother's Day deliveries that will make Mom feel special and save your behind in the process!

    Moms work hard all year round, and we only give them one day off to really celebrate and appreciate them. How rude of us! That's why it's important to choose a perfect gift for Mom, maybe even one that she can enjoy for a little while. That's why I love to give my Mom beauty gifts - so she can use them and feel glamorous. You pretty much can't beat Philosophy for skin care and wonderful scents, and at $45, The Best Seller's Collection at Sephora is a great value. She can try out the best of their luxurious products. Or for some fancy relaxation, there's the Jo Malone Fragrance Combining Candle, which mixes three fabulous scents in the air. Mom will love it! Check out my slideshow for other great beauty gifts for Mother's Day, but most importantly, appreciate your gorgeous mama!

    Savvy Gifts For Savvy Moms!

    I love my mother and I love her style, but she is surprisingly hard to shop for and with Mother's Day fast approaching, I'm looking to send her something besides the same flowers as the previous year, or a last-minute card. I could always give her cash, which she loves, but of course I want something a little more personalized and memorable. The thing is, my mom is still a stylish and hip woman who, although loves anything I get her, will not really like wearing a "World's #1 Mom" sweatshirt. I'm looking for something chic and fashionable and something that she'll want to use and not just store away after May 10th. This Mother's Day, check out these featured items and see her eyes light up with true surprise and let her be the envy of all the other mothers at brunch! Anything from Swarovski studded earphones for her gym time, crocodile leather checkbook cover to patent leather, stylish diaper bags for the new mom, you're sure to find something different for your mother that she'll be happy to use every day of the year!

    Mother's Day Florals That Last Longer Than A Week!

    If your mom is anything like mine, you know that she loves flowers. A bouquet of roses can say that you love her on Mother's Day, but wouldn't you rather give her something that won't end up in the trash after a week? You also know she doesn't have the time to keep her own garden. So what are you to do? Luckily for us, floral gifts for your mom can be found almost anywhere and can last longer than a bouquet of freshly cut flowers. Take a look at the gardenia bonsai plant. It comes with small buds ready to bloom into fragrant and gorgeous flowers and it's easy to take care of. For something along the more whimsical side, the windflower necklace made of chiffon and ribbon is a great accessory for any mom's wardrobe. Take a look at my slideshow for more floral gift ideas for your mom!

    Mother's Day Gifts For The Mom With A Green Thumb!

    Ever since I can remember, my mom has always had a green thumb (a trait that has unfortunately not been passed down considering I can't even keep a cactus alive). Whenever the weather is nice out, you can find her in the garden, picking weeds out of the flower beds, pruning the rose bushes and tending to the herb garden. This year for Mother's Day I'm going to get her something she can use in her beautiful little sanctuary, the garden. A new set of tools is perfect for any outdoor gardener; it's especially useful when it can be attached to a folding chair! Burt's Bees makes a great outdoor essential gift set that will let mom know you care about her out there in the wild. It comes with bug repellent, bite relief cream, a hand wash and a sun hat. Is Mom more of an inside gardener? Get her 12 months worth of seeds to grow herbs inside on the windowsill or a mini heirloom tomato growing kit. Need more ideas for Mother's Day? Check out the slideshow for some great gifts for the gardening mom!

    Hot In The Hive: Stila's Mother's Day Gift Set

    Your mother may insist that you're impossible to shop for, but the truth is, picking out gifts for Mom can be even trickier. Gone are the days when you could get away with fashioning a bouquet made of pipe cleaners and tissue paper or finger-painting a floral masterpiece for your kitchen fridge display. If we're telling it like it is, it's not just the thought that counts, so unless you're exceptionally crafty, an acceptable Mother's Day gift requires a trip to the mall (or at least a considerable effort in the realm of online shopping). So how do you bridge the generation gap and choose a woman-to-woman gift that's Mom-appropriate and something she'll actually enjoy? Let Stila (and Sephora!) help you out! The limited edition My Mother, My Hero gift set packs Stila's four top beauty basics (shadow, bronzer, plum lipstick, and mascara) in a chic gold-brushed clutch to create an essential set of products that are gorgeous yet subtle and basic enough to be worn by both demure and diva mamas alike. It's the perfect combination of thoughtful, fun, yet practical for any mom that likes to feel pretty, especially on a day dedicated just to her!


    Price: $38
    Who Found It: xgalexy was the first to add the Stila My Mother, My Hero Gift Set to the Hive.
