SUNDAY 30TH MARCH IS MOTHER’S DAY KIDS. Yes, capitals are wholly necessary when you’ve made the fatal mistake of planning another activity in the past. So, you’ve got your card sorted? Now it’s time for a gift and gesture.

Skandinavisk introduced their label with three scents last Christmas and have added four more for Spring, including Sommar which evokes open fields thanks to the notes of lily of valley and lavender.

If you know what’s going on with your Mum’s shoe size Bensimon plimsolls are a score! We’re feeling the flowers vibe so here’s the Liberty limited-edition micro flower version, but we have the plain available too.

Or how about a stationery haul? From letterpress card sets, notepads, beautiful to do lists, heavyweight neon envelope sets (that you’d find an excuse to fill!) to a wooden tape dispenser.

Celebrating is always a moment to think of jewellery and we reckon Sabrina Dehoff’s latest collection has stacks of neat little rings. The hand-painted stone sneaks it for us on this occasion!

If accessories are where it’s at, then our scarves are always a good shout. From Epice, Mii or new this season, Kenzo silks a long linen/cotton mix or silk square can be worn (and passed down, ahem) for years.

Here’s the Painted Flowers Kenzo scarf, available in three colours.

There’s always fancy feet to be had thanks to Happy Socks!
