Mother’s Day is fast approaching and it’s the one day in the year when mums are more than allowed to ask to be pampered! More than on their birthdays, anniversaries, and even Christmas!

I know I want to feel luxurious and spoiled on Mother’s Day, so I don’t hesitate to drop a few hints on what I’d love as presents. So I thought I’d share some of my favourite gifts to receive in case you’re looking for a bit of inspiration and wondering what gifts to ask for. 

A Spa Day

If you’re someone who loves massages, facials, manis and pedis, nothing will make you feel more luxurious and cared for than a proper spa day! Spa days aren’t just about the treatments though, they’re also a great way to relax so you really feel like you’ve had a break and you come back feeling all refreshed and renewed.

To make it extra special, you could opt for a spa day with afternoon tea included which is always a treat. You can take a favourite book and enjoy some solitude or if you love having company, ask your best friend to come along or any other mums you know who would love a day out like this.

An Elegant Perfume

I love perfumes and barely ever leave the house without wearing some. If you’re the same then consider asking for a gorgeous new scent as your Mother’s Day treat.

Before you decide on a perfume it’s always worth heading to the perfume department at your nearest store to see whats new and whats on offer. Sniff out a few designer fragrances, get your nose around the trending scent of Oud, and note down a couple of good contenders. Trying before you decide is a must because scents are so personal.

Once you’ve decided on one or two that you love make sure to give your partner the names so that they get exactly you what you want. And if you happen to be going out for a Mother’s Day meal, it’s the perfect time to test out your new gift.

Silk to Sleep in

Silk is smooth and soft, and an absolute luxury to sleep in, more so than any other fabric. So if you don’t already own any silk pajamas or bed sheets, now’s the time to ask for them. And if you’re someone who gets disturbed by the tiniest amount of light at night, consider adding a silk sleep mask to your wish list too. 

The beauty of silk is that it keeps you warm in winter and cool in the hotter months so these pyjamas or bedsheets will be useable all year round. Practicality aside, silk feels so good against the skin and will likely help you sleep more comfortably too. And it’s no secret that us mamas need all the sleep we can get!

If you want to be celebrated as you deserve to be this Mother’s Day, make sure you ask for some gifts that’ll make you feel extra special.
