For the Mom Who Taught You the Power of a Great Outfit

Seasonal upgrades to Mom’s wardrobe are welcome—a cozy knit or a midi skirt with a comfortable stretch waist are pieces she can wear to both casual and dressier affairs. A luxe accessory also never fails—like a Loewe scarf, a classic hobo bag, cat-eye sunglasses, or statement earrings. Also consider a gift that combines elegance, functionality, and personal sentiment—this Anne Klein watch exudes grace and sophistication, and may give any ensemble a touch of luxury.

For the Mom Who’s Always Getting Her Steps In

A mother is constantly on the go; she has places to be. For the moms who are always running errands or the ones into fitness, allow her to reach her goals or destinations in comfort and style with these flexible Nike running shoes. These leggings will also come in handy whether she’s doing workouts at home or rolling out a yoga mat in class. Post-pilates, she can throw on this stylish and relaxed half-zip and wear it right to dinner with friends.

For the Mom Who Needs Some Me-Time

If your motherly figure is in dire need of a break, make sure she prioritizes her self-care needs with this bath tray; fetch her a glass of wine, snacks, or a book while she unwinds and soaks in the water. Add in these bath salts to ease any tension and help her fall asleep as soon as she hits the pillow. If she’s all about her skincare routine, this multi-use beauty oil is worth the splurge; the roll-on it comes with also gives her face a golden shine, perfect for the holiday season. For the at-home mani obsessive, give your mom a shiny polish makeover with this Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Moonlit Top Coat.

For the Mom Who Loves to Host

Whether it’s a Christmas feast, an ice cream social, or just a casual aperitivo hour, your mother will appreciate anything that elevates her hosting game. Consider gifting her a versatile piece that guarantees perfect cooking results—this one-pick-pot-pan does it all: braise, sauté, broil, fry, and more. Her casserole will be harder to pass up in this Christmas tree-shaped dish, and cheese selections or Christmas cookies will stimulate the festive spirit further with this serving board. If your mom is always sending you recipes via text, consider gifting her this hardbound journal where she can write them all down instead. Finally, amp up the elegance of her dinner parties with a set of Dolce&Gabbana champagne glasses that’ll certainly be a topic of conversation at the table.
