Mother's Day 2021 gift guide

Most years, Mother’s Day can be as simple and meaningful as brunch at her favourite restaurant or a girls' night out. But with the resurgence of COVID-19 infections, we are limited to celebrations within the home. Whether your mother is big on personalised collectables or a working mom always on the go, we've got you covered with a selection of presents that are sure to bring a smile to her face. 

For the mother who likes all things personalised

Confused with the multiple gift options or running out of ideas to pull at your mother’s heartstrings? From monogrammed pyjamas which you and your mother can twin in to plush personalised slippers from the Cai store, there's many to choose from. With initialised signet rings, candles and more, getting personal is really easy this Mother’s Day.

Gifts for the on-the-go mom

If your mother is a working woman who’s always on the run, we suggest gifting her the pretty- meets-practical gifts which she already had her eyes on. Luxurious accessories from Dior, Tory Burch and Louis Vuitton not only last forever, but can make her errand runs less tedious. A chunky mask chain or spritz of summer-fresh cologne can brighten up her days too.

Gifts for the eco-conscious mom

If your mother is trying to live a more sustainable life, we’ve got you covered in the fashion department too. If the last one and a half years have taught us anything—it is to shop with intention, ideally with sustainable gifts which are sure to be of use in her everyday life. We’ve narrowed down to a linen dress from new name of the block, Malie, a mixed print tent dress from Khara Kapas and Sui. The brands are also donating a portion of their profits to COVID relief which is always a plus.
