Mother’s Day is just a few weeks away and it’s about time that you shower the most important woman in your life with a gift she actually deserves. Sure, moms love being treated to brunch and invited out to the theater, but why not give her the thoughtful gift of jewelry this year?
So consider surprising mom with a pair of statement earrings that are just as cool as she is.
“It is as much their duty to keep us chic, as it’s our duty to buy them presents,” pointed out Claire Distenfeld, the founder of New York boutique Fivestory. Even better, keep mom in the know with baubles that are both stunning and rule breaking.
Could it be a mistake to buy mom some baubles that are trendy, rather than classic?
“Jewelry is hugely personal, so I think when buying your mum jewelry as a gift it’s wise to keep her personality and taste in mind,” explained Ida Peterson, the accessories buying manager at Browns.
Distenfeld, on the other hand, thinks you can push the boundaries a bit. Her suggestion for mom is “something engrained in a classicism, but with a fun flirty twist.” She recommends going after a style that your mom wouldn’t think to buy herself.
Jewelry designer Shannon Nataf, of NATAF Joaillerie suggests anything with pearls, for a truly timeless purchase. “They are emblems of life and purity and much like a mother’s love, they transform in the depths. With women of all ages, pearls add an air of elegance and mystery, making them a great gift.”
