Mother’s Day is coming up and Anthropologie is offering up its gift ideas. It speaks to the diverse product range Anthro offers that the specialty page has such diverse items as kitchenware, jewelry, clothing, planters, books, scarves…and whatever this thing below is.
Gladiator Bird, Finch with Key ($298)
Mom by the pool
Your Mom works hard. She put up with your rebellious teenage face and comforted you when you broke up with your first boyfriend. All she wants to do know is laze by the pool on a sunny day and who can blame her? Help a momma out — give her some nice things.
Swimuit-wise let’s go for something super flattering. From left to right above, any Mom would look great in the Majesty Palm Maillot ($178). If it’s a bit of glam your Mom desires the Lorelei Halter ($268) is a stunning throwback while the Sea Glass Halter’s ($178) modern cut is sure to draw some eyes. If Mom is looking for something just a bit more demure the Goddess Sekhmet Suit ($168) offers support and style. And if your Mom is more about being by the pool than in it the Saintpaulia Cover-Up ($78) is sure to please or she could steal the show with the 60s-era perfection of the Sea-Nettle Cover-Up ($128).
Good reads
No, I am not giving my Mom a book about Moms for Mother’s Day. May as well just slap that crap on a mug (sorry, Dad). And in my case a cookbook would raise some eyebrows. So instead I’ll go with interesting. From left to right above A Year of Mornings ($20) would tug at the heart of a Mom with a displaced child while I Love Dirt! ($13) could either be a genuine thought from a child or a wink to nostalgia from an adult child. Nina Garcia’s The One Hundred ($22) is sure to stop Mom from hearing, “It’s just not aesthetically pleasing!” on the runway. What Would Audrey Do ($22.50) just looks cool.
Just a few ideas as thoughts. Is your Mother’s Day present coming from Anthro?
