Last minute gifts for Mother’s Day
By Carla Snuggs
Mother’s Day is days away! Haven’t found the perfect gift for mom? Posh Beauty Blog has curated special gifts for Mother’s Day to help you spoil mom. From beautiful nightgowns and bling to relaxing teas and special wines, there is something for every budget and every mom. If you’ve run out of time, purchasing a gift card for these items are also ideal especially during social distancing measures when you may not be able to be with mom.
Mari Tome Jewelry
As you may know, I love Mari Tome Jewelry. The Capsule Collection in the line is so perfect for mom or anyone you love. All of the pieces are mix and match and the front of the earrings and backs are also interchangeable (so they are sold separately). Shop: Maritomejewelry.com
JJWINKS
Busy moms are juggling a million things and usually the last thing on their mind is what stylish outfit they're going to wear for the day. So JJwinks created an effortless chic line The Light Hug Collection, which offers fashionable yet practical loungewear that's great dropping off/picking up kids from school, playdates, running errands, and all the other amazing things moms do. The Light Hug Collection has tops with built-in-bras that give real support, so no bra is needed. Each piece of clothing is made in the U.S. from high quality, eco-friendly fabrics also made in America. The creators wanted modesty around their family members yet to feel attractive and stylish for their husbands or unexpected guests. Gift idea: Girl Trip Nightgown! More than a nightgown and too cute for just the bedroom. It has all of the essential elements of their signature tops and is a flirty version of their maxi nightgown. Better yet, get a JJWinks gift card so mom can select an item she loves!
Mionetto Wines
Mionetto has some perfectly refreshing options for mom. With every sip she will experience the finest bubbles Italy has to offer. Faves:
Mionetto Prestige Rosé Extra Dry: This deeply luscious sparkling rosè is the result of soft pressing of red grapes. The wine offers a peach blossom luminosity, accompanied by a fine, lively perlage. This wine is known for its intense fragrances, like holding an edible bouquet of violets, raspberries, strawberries, and wild flowers. F
Luxury Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG: For an extra special treat for your Easter guests this season, take a select from the Mionetto Luxury Collection. Meticulously produced from grapes grown in the highly esteemed Prosecco Superiore DOCG, making this wine another fine expression of the Glera grape, this elegant sparkling wine offers a rich bouquet of floral essences and notes of apple and white peach, with a hint of citrus.
