Gifts for Mama


Good Evening Friends! I rounded up some great Mother's Day gifts; as Mother's Day will be here before you know it! Some gifts I have already purchased for both my Mom and Sister. I'm very excited to share these gift ideas with you. There are a variety of price points as well.





 
First things first, ALL moms deserve a really cute nightgown. Especially one with that is pink and has magnolias all over it. The best part it is under $50! Next up are these beautiful botanical soy wax sets from Etsy. These are totally unique and your mama would definitely love them.
If your mom loves to cook, I included some great kitchen gadgets and accessories that'll make food prep a little bit easier. And what mom doesn't like an easy meal prep gadget?! This salad spinner was a game changer for me- No eating the lettuce leaves with a paper towel. Chop it up, wash it, throw it in, spin it around and there you have it freshly washed dry salad! Now for the coffee drinking mom, this copper French press is stunning ( I gifted one to my sister) and these mugs are a perfect gift as well to go with the French press. 
To all of the candle loving Moms out there- I just discovered this scent and in love. I'm currently burning it down. It's a delicious blend of citrus and goji. Trust me, it's a good one.
My Mama loves to journal , specifically Bible journaling. These two are great options and have words of encouragement and gratitude and other uplifting quotes for a mom that may need a little bit of love and uplifting.




This sweatshirts is possibly my favorite of the bunch. Because its customized to your child birth month. So for my mom her sweatshirt  (also comes in a t-shirt) would be a daisy and a narcissus. I was born in December and My sister was born in April. You can even add grandchildren. How fun would that be if you were a mom of 10! You'd have a bouquet🌸



Lastly, this beautiful Floral  embroidered dishcloth is absolutely STUNNING! I purchased this for my mom. It is so pretty that you'd want to frame it- it makes the perfect gift for all moms of all ages. 

I hope that this gift guide was helpful. Stay tuned for Mother's Day outfits!

Thanks so much for stopping by.💜

Lilly Pulitzer Gifts under $60

 Hi Friends! Thanks so much for stopping by. I wanted to share with you some cute new Lilly pieces that I have and have discovered to be great gifts. And all of them are under $60, which is even better.




First things first, let's talk pajamas- I love my Lilly pjs and they are ultra soft too. The food thing is that you can buy them individually or as a set to match. I personally chose the Print for a cause. Because Breast cancer awareness is very important to me. There are a plethora of new prints available over on the Lilly website to chose from. I'm eyeing this print as my next purchase of PJs. Plus, who wouldn't love a cute new PJ set?! Also pictured is the softest blanket ever. They are very scarce in store so I recommend ordering before they run out. This print and blanket is amazing and would be a wonderful gift!




Hats and more Hats! These two hats are so fun and are great options for people who like print but not a lot all over. Its great for a friend who wants to try Lilly out in small doses. lol, 😆 both of these options are under $50 and are great gifts for poolside or everyday casual wear. The printed casual hat comes in a plethora of colors.
This printed headband is also to cute, I love this pretty print. 
If you or a friend loves listening to music when they jog, This AirPods or earbud case is a great way to hide your AirPods or earbuds.

Now for the Friend who loves to journal (this one is only $12) or keeps her desk organized, these cute lilly items are my favorite. I have quite a few notebooks and I use my planner every day for work.
Also pictured is this cute umbrella and mobile charger. I love the turtle print!

I love my Lilly cooler and I use mine all of the time to carry my lunch or to keep my drinks cool in the summer while traveling. Speaking of drinks, I love cute tumblers and these are super cute gifts. I love giving these with a little coffee as a gift. 









These Etta tops are so versatile and can be dressed up or down and are under $50 . These shirts come in solid colors and prints. I have the light pink one. 



These pretty cappuccino mugs are currently on mega sale for only $29.99, they were originally $52! These would make a great gift for friends who love a good Italian cappuccino. 


Thanks so much for stopping  by. I'll be sharing more favorites as gifts soon.

At home Pedicure

Hello Friends! So I had my very first at-home pedicure and it was a success. Since the spas are closed still- I decided to do my own pedicure because I was long overdue. I wanted to share the items that I used for my at-home pedicure. First things first I had to soak my toes and get any remaining gel off and then I took a nice hot bath and let my feet soak. I wanted to mention that I bought the most amazing and skin-softening soap from a small boutique named Agapanthus. They have quite a few scents- I have actually bought them for my mom and my sister for Mother's Day last year and this year, so I'm a big fan. They are made in France and fairly inexpensive for such high quality. I'll link the website to purchase here. I bought the carrot scent for myself and it smells ahhhhmazing!!!!!!😍 If you'd like to check out more of Agapanthus great gifts, decor, and spa essentials I'll link their website here and their Instagram.


I did buy pumice stone for my heels to soften them up and to get rid of any callused skin which wasn't very much. I try to take care of my feet since I love wearing sandals. But I highly recommend buying a pumice stone. Afterward, I used a foot mask from the same boutique and I loved it. I really felt like I was in a spa except in my own home. I let the foot mask stay on for about 20 minutes and then added my favorite moisturizers.

If you've been wanting to do your own pedicure, I highly recommend it. Especially on a weekend, where you're winding down for the evening and staying home.

I'll link my robe - which I had monogrammed here.

Happy Sunday Friends.

Coffee Mug Talk

I love a good cup of vanilla iced coffee and for some reason, I think that having a cute mug makes the coffee taste even better. I also have kind of a mug collecting problem, lol 😂. I actually had to downsize on my mug and cup collection before I moved into my house. With that being said here are my favorite coffee mugs that I use quite often for my iced coffee. I also rounded up some other cute mugs- that I have been eyeing. I'm also considering making a cute little iced coffee station in the kitchen so stay tuned for that. 


This Mermaid in the Shade mug from Lilly is my favorite. I love the print and colors and it's just so beautiful. Unfortunately, this print is sold out online. But it comes in another print

This blue and white cup is actually from one of my favorites in NYC. When I was in New York last year I went to a French bakery/coffee shop named Maman and picked up this pretty ceramic cup as a souvenir.
I love this cute flamingo mug. I bought a set of four of these a long time ago at Pottery Barn. So they're sold completely out. But I love the classic white to this fun mug.
I love a good monogram and these floral and gold mugs would make a great Mother's day gift
Here are some other mugs that I find quite adorable.
1. Woodland animal mug 2. Lilac and gold Mug 3. Handpainted Bird Mug 4. Sweet Berries 5. Floral mug 6. Pink and gold mug
