Mother’s Day Gift Guide: Affordable and Trendy Gift’s She will love

If your mother is anything like mine, you will know that she always puts everyone else’s needs before her own. That is why Mother’s Day is the perfect time to treat her to something special that will make her feel like the Queen she is!

I have spent the past couple of days looking for a few gifts that are not only beautiful, but also trendy, thoughtful, budget-friendly, and useful!

A STYLISH HAIRBRUSH

Every woman deserves a good quality hairbrush! That is why the Holographic Pink Tangle Teezer Compact brush (R320 available at Sorbet Dry Bars Countrywide) is one of my ultimate favorite brushes. Not only is it SUPER stylish, but it's also a travel-friendly detangling hairbrush. The Tangle Teezer Compact Styler smooths, shines, and defines on the go. Ideal for regular hair types, it tames stray strands and detangles wet or dry hair with its two-tiered regular-flex teeth which glide through the hair without pulling it! This is an investment and also one item I always carry around in my handbag!

TRENDY ACTIVEWEAR

The “Jungle Warrior” Print trend is going to be noticeably big this Autumn/Winter and I LOVE it! Whenever I see Animal print it makes me feel like booking a trip to Kruger and going on Safari! I found the following items that will look great in her wardrobe!

1. MAXED Elite Zip-Through Hoodie (R379,99 MRP Sport)

2. TS MEDIUM IMPACT LEOPARD PRINTED CROP (R 229,95 Totalsports)

3. Edition Print High Stretch Nylon Racerback Crop Top (R299 Woolworths)

4. WOMEN'S TS FLEX FITNESS LEOPARD PRINT LONG TIGHTS (R349,95 Totalsports)

5. Mr. Price Home Leopard Filter Mask (R39,99 MRP Home)

You can also add a nice Water bottle to her Active Gift Bag. I found this glass Water Bottle at Pep Home and you properly will not believe me but it only cost R15,99!

HAIR ACCESSORIES

Who does not like a scrunchie with a beautiful print! I recently found these beautiful Hair Scrunchies in Woolworths and I simply had to buy them! For only R69,99 you get 6 different scrunchies- a mix of plain and printed options, so you can coordinate your look! (Yes, there is only 5 in the picture, I gave the black one away 😊) The Alice Band was bought from Miekeraai!

TRENDY HOME DéCOR

If her interior needs just a little polish or a chic touch, a glass vase can do that! I found this beautiful blue glass vase at MRP Home and was surprised when I turned it over and saw that it is only R179,99, I mean what a bargain! The lovely pampas grass is R35 each and available online from the 90's Club.

Another Bargain is this stylish black Lamp that I picked up at PEP Home for only R219,99 (They are also available in white), and this Bloom Diffuser (R159,99 MRP Home) with fresh, green floral notes with intriguing hints of freesia and fruit that will leave her senses refreshed.

Add some color to her home with these Colorful Floral Print Scattered Cushions from MRP Home for only R79,99 each! There is a wide selection of colors to choose from. You will notice that there is a lot of Yellow and Grey items in the shops, the reason for this is that these are the two Pantone 2021 colors!

SPOILS FOR HER KITCHEN

These Yellow and White Dishcloths perfectly match the 2021 Pantone Color trend and are perfect to add some color to her kitchen. It’s a 2 pack, so definitely a good value for money seeing as it will only cost you R24,99 (available at PEP Home).

I simply love these Tumbler Glasses! They look very elegant and Classy and cost only R15,99 each (available at PEP Home).

COLORFUL KNITWEAR

Make sure she stays warm while looking stylish. Knitwear is another trend that is going to be BIG this winter, so why not spoil your mother with a beautiful, knitted sweater!

1. Knit Jersey in Mustard Yellow (R179,99 PEP)

2. Knit Jersey in Velvet Pink (R179,99 PEP)

3. Knit Jersey in Navy (R179,99 PEP)

4. Pick N Pay Clothing Knit Hoody in Rose (R269,99)

Flowers and chocolate are also a winner, but at the end of the day, it is the thought that counts, so do not go and spend thousands of Rands on gifts!

TIP:

One thing my mom always appreciates is when I add something personal, like a handwritten card or letter, or a photograph in a nice frame.

Good Luck and Happy Shopping!

Love,
