Mother’s Day is a Hallmark occasion. Any chance to tell or show one’s mom how much she is appreciated should be celebrated. But since looking or thinking of a gift can be quite stressful, here are my top 10 gift suggestions.
1) Lanai bespoke flowers. Flowers are the most romantic and touching gift. It’s a reflection of the giver’s affection for the recipient. It is said that one will never receive the same kind of flower. Order from Lanai and you will have beautiful flowers presented in chic fashion. My tip is to tell the staff how much they have to work with so they can suggest the best flowers for your budget.

2) La Creperie in Burgos Circle is where a father can treat his wife and kids. The menu offers more than the usual fare.
La Creperie is known for its French comfort dishes such as the Galettes de Sarrasin (100-percent buckwheat crepes made with imported cheeses and charcuterie), Pain Perdu (French toast), Sweet Crepes (notably the Salidou made with French salted butter caramel and whipped cream), as well as localized dishes such as Filipino breakfast with rice, or pasta.
After all, a meal with the whole family will always be special.
3) Chanel lip color in Pirate is one the top 10 red shades. If your wife or mother loves wearing red lipstick, then she will love this present.
4) Gucci’s Silvie leather top-handle bag is a fashion must-have. If your mom is a bag hag, you won’t go wrong with this choice.
5) Christian Louboutin’s Decollete 554 in 85 mm is just the perfect height, from work to party. Women’s choices in shoes may vary, but the red sole will always be coveted.
6) Annick Goutal Rose Splendide is based on the intense aromas of musk mixed with Centifolia rose, magnolia and pear. It is designed as an ode to women who prefer romantic scents and cherish romantic moments in their lives.
7) NARS Orgasm is one of the cult favorites when it comes to blush. It gives a natural glow and can be used by all skin-tones. This is perfect for the woman who hardly uses makeup.
8) Clarins Double Serum is powered by 20 pure plant extracts and potent, high-tech molecules. Clarins’ award-winning bestseller combines two age-defying formulas in one groundbreaking serum that supports skin’s natural, vital functions. In as little as four weeks, you’ll see firmer skin, reduced appearance of wrinkles, a more even skin tone, and less visible pores.
9) Cartier Love necklace. A product of 1970s New York, the Love collection remains an iconic symbol of love that transcends conventions. If you’re a father who hasn’t given your wife a timeless present, then now’s your chance.
10) Linda Farrow eyewear is something for the woman who has everything. This luxury brand has done several collaborations, so there is something unique for everyone. It’s perfect for the weather, stylish and very light on the face.
