My 5 favourite gift ideas for Mother's Day

Sophie's ultimate wish list of thoughtful gift ideas she'll adore

Mother’s Day is fast approaching (Sunday 30th March in case you haven’t got it marked in your calendar) and there is no better time to show the mum in your life just how much she means to you with a special gift, especially one she may not splurge on for herself. Whether you’re treating your mum, an expecting mum, a new mum or a mother-figure or, you’re simply after some helpful hints to pass on to your partner for yourself, we’ve got you covered.

1. Suede Corkbed Mule Slippers, £55, The White Company

Suede Corkbed Mule Slippers, £55, The White Company

With the weather still being super cold, I’m coveting these slippers from The White Company. Made from Suede with a soft long-pile faux lining, they’re sure to keep my toes nice and warm. They’re also available in a neutral tone.

2. Spa package at Thames Water Lido, from £35

Thames Water Lido, from £35 for a swim and eat package

I’m not sure I should be sharing this spa venue with you all in case the prices start to sky rocket. I treated my sister to a voucher to spend here at Christmas (which she’s yet to use) so am hopeful if I get a voucher for Mother’s Day (hint, hint, Charlie) I can tag a long with her. It’s super affordable, which is crucial right now as our renovation project feels like a money pit. Sigh!
