How do you thank the woman who has been there for you, through thick and thin, through good days and bad, from the very beginning? It’s a grandiose task, friends. And frankly, no gift will ever come close to doing her justice. But there is no sense in not trying. Below are a few ideas to help show the #1 lady in your life just how much she means to you.
1. Coqui Coqui Perfume
If your mom’s been dreaming of a tropical getaway, the perfumes from the renowned Coqui Coqui Hotel in Tulum, Mexico are the perfect indulgence. Hotelier and perfumer Nicolas Malleville spent years developing Coqui Coqui’s fragrances, formulating them just right to evoke the lush landscape of Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula. We couldn’t help but bring home a bottle of the Tabaco and CoCo Coco perfumes after our last trip to Tulum. Coqui Coqui Perfumes
2. Classic Sunnies
Your mom is the sunshine of your life and one heck of a classy lady. The round shape and classic tortoise frame of these Ray-ban sunnies play a nod to her youthful spirit and remind her of the ‘good old days.’ Bonus—maybe if you’re nice, she’ll let you borrow them too! Ray-Ban Round Fleck
3. Fancy Daily Planner
The most organized woman you know—your mom never misses a beat. She remembers every birthday, every holiday, and even makes sure to remind you of your dentist appointment next Thursday at 1pm. (thanks, mom <3) Not only will one of these stunning daily planners from LA based Graphic Designer Julia Kostreva help to keep your mom organized with its super practical layout, it will bring a smile to her face every time she catches a glance at its beautifully designed cover.

4. Wise Art Print
Mom knows best. She taught you the best things in life take hard work, perseverance, and patience. And this limited addition art print from Congostudio in Barcelona illustrates her wise words perfectly. ‘Some Things Take Time’ Art Print
5. George Cloony Approved Tequila
Longtime friends George Clooney, Rande Gerber and Mike Meldman set out to make the perfect tequila, and according to the countless rave reviews, its seems as though they’ve done just that. Casamigos is a small batch, ultra premium tequila made from the finest, hand-selected 100% Blue Weber agaves, grown in the Highlands of Jalisco, Mexico. Kick back and enjoy a margarita with mom, or go ahead and sip it straight on the rocks—because if it’s good enough for George, it’s gotta be good enough for mom, too. Casamigos Tequila
