Mother's Day Gift Guide, Part 1:

Dear Margaret,

        

     Speaking of moms and shopping... I realized how close Mother's Day really is... It's right around the corner (May 13th), therefore we need to be thinking of/ordering gifts:) I put together a gift guide for a variety of moms: Edgy/Cool moms, Fashionista moms, Fitness Buff/Health-Nut moms, Homemaker moms, Artistic/Nature moms, Classic "Bergdorf Preppy" moms, and universal gifts for all moms:) What doe your gift guide look like this year!?

xo,

Kara
