This Sunday May 11th is Mother’s Day 2014! So while I’m still in the midst of finding the perfect gift for my mom (she’s hard to shop for…even for a fashionista like myself lol), I decided to share my gift guide so fashion lovers everywhere can get their mom the best of the best. Don’t they deserve nothing less? 😉

Purple Haze
A timeless classic that’ll never go out of style is wearing your birthstone. Since my birthday is this month, my birthstone happens to also double as my favorite color…amethyst! I personally wear my birthstone everyday in the form of this chic ring from Macy’s that I bought myself back in high school (yes, sometimes you need to treat yourself 😉 right ladies?)
I feel a birthstone is a piece of jewelry every fashionista should wear, it’s simple and understated. Whether you wear it as a necklace, a bracelet or even a ring, it’s bling that tells a little about you, or at least says when you were born! These pieces below are some of my favorites from the amethyst birthstone this month. #1..the David Yurman bracelet is on my ‘lust‘ list that needs to become a ‘must’ 😉 It’s a classic that I feel every gal needs to have in her jewelry rotation…and soon it’ll hopefully be in mine!

Personal Touches
Nothing is quite as meaningful as a personalized gift. Engraving someones name or initials whether it’s jewelry, a book, a tech item or anything for that matter gives that little extra touch to show that the gift your giving had a lot of thought put into it.
I personally love having something unique to me…something no one else will have because it was personalized to my liking. Small or big, now-a-days every retailer is offering ‘personalization’ options to which consumers can make the item they are purchasing truly their own!
Here are some of my favorite personalized pieces for the season (and there after):
1) Classic Script Monogram Necklace $100 (Available at BaubleBar)
2) Sarah Chloe ‘Elle Bangle’ (Personalized to you preference) $129 (Available at BaubleBar)
3) Rhinestone Initial Mug $14.99 (Numerous color options) (Available: here)
4) Monogram iPhone 5 Case (Numerous options available; size, color, font etc.) (Available: Zazzle)
5) Gigi New York Personalized ‘Clutch’ $105 (Comes in numerous colors) (Available: Gigi)
