Mother’s day is only a week away and we’ve put together a great list of MUST HAVE’s for the ultimate Sassy mom! Whether you add these to your list or send HIM a hint, all that matters is that you take the time on Sunday, May 8th and celebrate YOUR biggest accomplishment – being a MOM!
Enjoy our Sassy Mom’s Ultimate Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2011….
Relax: Spa Treatments
My number one way to celebrate Mother’s Day is with ANY type of spa treatment! There are very few women I know who do NOT dream of getting a massage, facial or mani/pedi which is why this makes the perfect gift. This year husband surprised me with a day at the spa with two of my besties and I could not be more excited. We’re headed to Heavenly Massage and I can’t wait to see what they have planned for us.
Jewelry: Michael Kors Rose Gold Watch
Jewelry is one of my favorites and if I can’t have diamonds just give me a new watch! By adding an oversized timepiece your wrist becomes a focal point and turns an ordinary look to ultra chic with very little effort.
Share: Photo Albums
My favorite gifts to give and to receive are photo albums. Living in the age of digital cameras and picture overload, there is nothing better than presenting and preserving your favorite memories in a professionally bound photo book. My favorites are Shutterfly. Both offer high quality and reasonable priced books, calendars and cards.
Eat: Vosges Truffles
I’m truly obsessed with Vosges Truffles and have been for many, many years. I love their wide selection of Mamma’s Chocolat Cravings Kit – includes a chocolate bar to match every mother’s needs – savory, spicy, sweet, salty, sour, energy, digestive and Indian. Comes with a tasting guide with an explanation of how each of the 9 Mini Exotic Candy Bars satisfies each craving. Love it!
Flowers – Telaflora
Nothing says I love you like flowers and Teleflora has beautiful collections at every price point. Ordering flowers has never been faster or easier! My favorite is the Spring and Mother’s Day bouquet collection by Faith Hill.

Carry: MICHAEL Michael Kors Glazed Python-Embossed Leather Item Tote
I’ve secretly been longing for this tote since last year and I think I’m ready to go for it and give it to myself. It’s the perfect chic tote for everyday or weekend getaway.
Gadgets: IPad2
If you’ve been thinking about whether you “need” or must have the IPad2, the answer is yes. There are so many reasons I love this gadget but the top reasons are the built in webcam, it’s thinner and faster, has the ability to sync my Outlook calender, tasks, hand write notes, check email and more. The list is endless but the fact that the IPad2 is thinner than the original which equates to being much lighter, makes it easier to transport in any tote or handbag when I am out and about.

Love your suggestions! I actually bought that watch last month as a little present to myself and love it!
I am pining for a day at the spa!
