Mother's Day Gift Guide

In the middle of finals, it's always that day that sneaks up on us. 

Cool bracelet

My mom is a jewelry hoarder so any kind of bling will make her happy plus she'll think of you whenever she wears it!

FAVS: Nakamol Chicago , Kate Spade , Nadri , David Yurman

Nespresso Espresso Machine

Love her a latte? ;) Snag it at Target.

Planting flowers

Ditch the bouquets this year, and get something that will last all summer. If you're in Chicago, stop by Steuber. If you're not sure of a good place, Home Depot is a good go to. 

Fitness class

Go with her if you can! Y7 Studio has hiphop yoga, modelFIT has dance cardio or hit up SoulCycle for a classic ride. 

Fragrance

Give her a new classic.

FAVS: Diptyque , HERMÈS

Baking class

Another fun thing to do together! Magnolia offers these all the time in NYC, LA and Chicago, and you'll get to bring home the treats you make! 

Mixology Set

Nothing I love more than kitchen accessories. If I had to pick a store to live in, it would be Williams-Sonoma. 

FAVS: Crate&Barrel , W-S , West Elm

Tablet

Every momma needs an iPad. If you're feeling extra, add on her favorite books or music! 

Spring Silks

Wow wow wow, I haven't had a minute to write in a couple weeks, but I finally have a little down time and much to catch you up on slowly but surely. We'll start with what I'm wearing. I went home to Chicago for Easter and was able to shoot a couple of my favorite spring outfits. These silk pants I found at Rag and Bone over the winter and had to practice my patience waiting for warmer weather to wear them. I linked below two pairs that look really similar as well as two more tailored pairs. Nude and pale pink has got to be one of my favorite color combos. Add a darker lip, and bam! you'll have a look that's 9-5 appropriate and happy hour ready.
