Mother’s Day Gift Guide

Mother’s Day is right around the corner—and if you’re looking for something that feels personal, beautiful, and just a little bit luxe, I’ve pulled together a few favorite finds that strike the perfect balance between indulgent and intentional. Whether you’re shopping for your mom, mother-in-law, a friend, or yourself (no judgment here!), these picks celebrate style, comfort, and everyday joy.

1. The Kindle + A Stack of BookTok Favorites

For the mom who’s always recommending her latest read or sneaking in chapters between carpools and coffee, a Kindle loaded with trending titles is a can't-miss. Think The Bee Sting, Happy Place, and other page-turners perfect for summer evenings on the porch.

2. Tortoise Shell Cocktail Glasses + Ingredients

Elevate her happy hour with this set of tortoise shell drinking glasses—classic with a twist. Pair them with her favorite spritz ingredients or a cocktail recipe card to make it extra special.

3. Floral Subscription from Urban Stems

A fresh bouquet is always appreciated—but why not make it a recurring treat? A monthly floral subscription from Urban Stems means her space is always layered with color, texture, and that lived-in, thoughtful touch we love.

4. Merit Beauty Essentials

Low-maintenance but high-impact, Merit’s collection is perfect for the mom who wants a polished look without the fuss. I love this curated set of complexion-perfecting favorites (bonus points for the chic packaging that doubles as bathroom counter eye candy).

5. Coast Wine Club (Columbus, OH Locals Only)

If you're in Columbus, Coast Wine Club is a hidden gem. Whether she’s a red lover or a crisp white fan, a subscription brings boutique bottles straight to her doorstep. Add a sweet note or a set of glasses to complete the gift.

6. Framebridge Toulouse Frame

This tortoise-inspired frame adds the perfect sophisticated finish to any photo or print. Gift it with a favorite family snapshot or a custom art print she’ll treasure for years.

Wrap it All with Love
No matter what you choose, the best gifts are the ones that feel personal. Add a handwritten card and wrap it in something pretty!

Summer Entertaining Must Haves

Summer entertaining is all about creating a vibe—something effortlessly chic, a little bit playful, and, of course, stylish. Whether you're hosting by the pool, lounging beachside, or setting the mood for an intimate al fresco dinner, having the right pieces makes all the difference. These are some of my favorite high-end yet approachable must-haves for a summer well spent.

Steel Serving Dish – The secret to a beautiful tablescape? Layering height and texture. A tiered steel serving dish is perfect for displaying fresh fruit, small bites, or even a decadent oyster and caviar moment (because, why not?).

Striped Beach Towel – A classic striped towel is a summer staple. It looks just as good draped over a lounge chair as it does wrapped around you after a dip.

Mini Cordless Table Lamp – Good lighting always sets the mood. These sleek little lamps add a warm, intimate glow to outdoor dinner parties without the hassle of cords.

Woven Bowl – Perfect for tossing in lemons, limes, or fresh bread—because even the practical things should be beautiful.

Bikini – Because summer entertaining isn't just about the setup—it’s about looking good while doing it. A sleek black bikini with contrast piping is classic and effortless.

Umbrella with Contrast Piping – An elegant way to add shade (and style). The contrast piping detail gives a subtle nod to old-school French Riviera glamour.

Pool Ring – This oversized black-and-white float is the perfect balance of chic and fun—because no pool party is complete without one.

The inspiration images? Exactly the kind of summer I’m manifesting: poolside hangs, striped umbrellas, seaside reading, and over-the-top snacks (fries and martinis, always).

Spring Refresh Essentials

Spring is the perfect time to refresh your home with small yet impactful updates. A funky piece of bird artwork adds personality and a playful touch, while textured espresso cups with round wood handles elevate your morning routine with a mix of warmth and modern design. A Calacatta Viola trinket dish brings a luxe feel to any space, perfect for holding jewelry or small essentials. To lighten up your home, pinch pleat linen curtains in a soft beige effortlessly filter in spring sunlight, creating an airy, inviting atmosphere. Fresh scents make all the difference, and the White Tea Pura scent refill is the perfect way to bring in a crisp, clean fragrance. Finally, a light blue and striped pillow pairing introduces a subtle pop of color and classic charm.

These small swaps make a big impact, giving your home an effortless seasonal refresh!
