Mother’s Day is just around the corner and making sure mom feels loved and appreciated on her special day (and everyday) is top of my list. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve really come to understand the courage, dedication and selflessness that it takes to be a mother. My mom is one special lady and along with teaching me about life she instilled in me the power to dream big and reach for my goals. Priceless gifts.

To help you celebrate your mom on Mother’s Day I’ve curated a gift guide filled with special pieces from a few of my favorite stores and online shops.

♦ Amara.com is a new online shop I recently discovered and to say I love everything on their site is an understatement. They sell a wide range of products from over 300 of the leading home decor, gift and fashion brands around. p.s. I’ll be sharing more about Amara in a couple of weeks along with a fun collaboration I’m doing with them!

♦ BaubleBar continues to be one of my favorite sources for fashion jewelry. Not only are their prices good but their tassel earring collection is hard to beat. I want one of everything.

♦ When we lived in Seattle, Nordstrom was a favorite shopping spot for clothing, handbags and shoes. And now I love shopping their gift and home departments for unique items. Mark you calendar for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale which will take place July 21-August 6th.

♦ Mark & Graham is my go-to source for high-quality leather goods, entertaining items and accessories for both men and women. And I love that so many of their items can be personalized with a monogram.
