TORONTO, ONTARIO
Can you believe Mother’s Day is just less than 8 days away? And although spa days, flowers, fragrance and jewelry are always welcome, there is also a whole lot of other options that your Mom, stepmom, grandmother or favourite aunt will definitely love. So today I thought I would share my Mother’s Day gift guide in case you need some inspiration!

I love things that make a house smell good. And this SPRING MEADOW VOTIVE TRIO from Linnea is absolutely perfect. The Spring scented votive candles come in a beautifully decorated box and even include matches…. All ready to light up! If your mom prefers earthy scents, then I suggest individual candles in FIELDS, VINTAGE or TEA ROOM. Linnea soy candles are made in the US, eco-friendly, cruelty-free and sustainable. They use all-natural cotton wicks, fine fragrances that are free from harsh chemicals and phthalates, and therapeutic grade essential oils.
If candles are not her thing, anything from the Perth Soap Company is always a great idea. She can wash and moisturize her hands with some of the best luxury hand soaps and lotions in the market. My mom and I share a love for MOROCCAN SPICE and VANILLA FIG. But really, all the scents this company produces are just fabulous. They leave your hands and body smooth and velvety, with no tightness after drying. The luxurious liquid soap is pH balanced and formulated with Argan oil, ensuring long lasting hydration. Proudly made in Canada and sold at my favourite local interiors store, HOME SMITH. And good news for my overseas friends… Home Smith ships internationally as well!
No Mother’s Day Gift Guide is complete without mentioning beauty and skincare products, as they are always welcome. A great way to let her chose the products she wants is through discovery boxes. If she loves skincare, then THIS boxed set of 9 must try serums will definitely please her. The box includes 9 deluxe samples with a certificate to redeem for her favourite full size.
From VICHY, a renowned French skincare brand you have two collections that are wonderful for mature skin and are always a hit:
NEOVADIOL- HERE, HERE and HERE.
For the mom who loves a good handbag, a go-to is always Coach. I love their leather, not only extremely durable but timeless and so IN right now. How about a beautiful and elegant CROSSBODY? Or a TRENDY one? My all-time fave, which I own and love is the TABBY 26.
Since the COVID pandemic, lounge wear and pyjamas have become super popular. Of course, all moms enjoy cozy and comfy. However, sometimes it feels good to kick it up a notch. If you read my March favourites blog post, then you already know how much I love my PYJAMA SET and KIMONO ROBE. The jammies are kinda sexy and dressy, but super soft and comfortable. Bonus: the pants have pockets to hold your phone! The silk KIMONO ROBE is a work of art by itself and so very beautiful. She will absolutely love it!
For the Mom who loves to host, I would most highly recommend Aerin Lauder’s latest book: ENTERTAINING BEAUTIFULLY. Aerin’s elegant, layered and timeless style is present in a years worth of gatherings and celebrations. Furthermore, she shares the passed-down party traditions and customs of her mother and grandmother making this a most lovely book to gift this Mother’s Day.
For the mom who loves to cook, DIALA’S KITCHEN is a wonderful addition to her recipe book collection. Cookbook author, Diala Canelo is also a fellow Latina blogger who now calls Toronto home. Her book is full of colour, warmth and truly delicious recipes inspired by her travels around the world!
Lastly, one of my favourite things to gift is a sweet treat, especially the ones from my favourite Toronto baker- THE SUGAR FAIRY KITCHEN. For this Mother’s Day, she offers a TREAT BOX, the most adorable CUPCAKE BOX as well as super pretty single-wrapped cookies and cookie boxes. Ideal to gift to your mom, girl friends and loved ones, too.
And there you have it… my Mother’s Day Gift Guide for 2021. I would love to know what are some of your favourite Mother’s Day gifts to receive and to give … so comment below!
