  1. Kobo Aura One

Books are both my favourite gifts to give and to receive, because they are often so personal. If you are unsure which book to get your mother, an e-reader is definitely an idea for you! Millions of books can be accessed and Kobo readers are the perfect size to keep in handbags, or on nightstands, for quick reads before bed. If you want to it to be even more special, download a few books you like in advance, so it can be even more personalized!

  1. Banana Republic Gold Leaf Necklace

Jewelry is another great gift idea, especially the classic, timeless pieces that your mother can wear for years to come. If you are still unsure as to where to start looking — there are so many places and styles to choose from —, try to find a piece similar to one she wore on her wedding or to a piece that may be sentimental to her! Not only is it personal, but also shows that you put thought into the gift.
