Gorman knit
Nothing says “I love you Mum” like a cashmere blend. While peplum skirts and wide leg pants are very well and good, these trends will come and go. The cashmere knit however is a stayer, a reliable go-to… the sartorial equivalent of Mum.

Sekonda watch
If mum can always manage to pick you up on time, and get you to choir practice or soccer training, or even manage to call at just the right time, then surely she deserves a timeless timekeeper. For elegance and charm, go for rose gold this season, which flatters all skin tones.
