Mother’s Day Gift Ideas

This month, honor the mother figure in your life with a gift that will make her feel the love and gratitude that she so deserves. Here are five ideas from local shops in town.

Let’s Lounge

Hanging out under the St. Tropez beach umbrella will make Mom (almost) feel like she’s been transported to the coast of France. It’s perfect for the beach or the backyard and easily folds up. Retail: $199. Pottery Barn, 358 San Lorenzo Ave. #2115, 305-569-9022, potterybarn.com. 

Don’t Sweat It

Cynthia Lopez-Rivas’ love for personalization led her to create Caprilina, a children’s boutique where she now embroiders clothing for mothers as well. Emblazoned with Mom’s first name and her children’s names on the sleeve, the Mama Generation sweatshirt is a gift that is both heartfelt and one of a kind. Retail: $85. Caprilina, 2151 S. Le Jeune Rd. #303, 305-965-3334, caprilina.com. 

Bold and Beautiful

This recently released tome highlights the vibrant interior design work of Justina Blakeney. With ideas for incorporating striking color palettes, taking cues from nature and drawing inspiration from one’s heritage and travels, “Jungalow: Deorate Wild” will offer Mom a fun escape. Retail: $31.99. Barnes & Noble, 152 Miracle Mile, 305- 446-4152, barnesandnoble.com. 

Pandora’s Box

Your love for her is infinite, just like the symbolic style behind the Sparkling & Polished Lines ring by Pandora. Crafted from sterling silver and set with cubic zirconia stones, it’s a piece that Mom will reach for over and over again. Retail: $150. Pandora, 370 San Lorenzo Ave., 305-423-2013, pandora.net. 

She’s Hip

Athleta’s Kinetic waist bag is a no brainer for any woman who is always on the go. It’s an easy choice for travel, running errands or chasing toddlers around at the park, and can easily fit a wallet, cell phone and hand sanitizer. Retail: $55. Athleta, 350 San Lorenzo Ave. #2035., 305-441-9581, athleta.gap.com
