The North Beach Mother's Day Cheat Sheet

29 Apr, 2022

Are you seriously buying that toaster for a Mother's Day gift? Come on! Think a little harder! Ok, ok we'll help! Read on for our curated Mother's Day cheat sheet. Go on, make her feel special for once in your life!

1. Embrace self care

Mum's can sometimes get a bit frazzled - they have a lot to do! So let her take some time out by treating her to a yoga class, massage, mani/pedi, or anything else that she loves. Super cute to do together or if she's a mum of young'uns, let her take a couple hours off to relax.

2. A Status Anxiety handbag or wallet

If your mum is anything like ours, she's constantly on the go and could use a stylish and practical handbag or wallet to help her keep everything together. We're loving the new styles from Status Anxiety - they have such a great range to choose from.

3. Breakfast in bed

A classic for a reason - there's nothing better than being waited on hand and foot! Make sure you get Mum's favourite breakfast foods, set up a little tray with some flowers or a cute card, and enjoy some quality time together in bed (or leave her alone to enjoy her food in peace).

4. Slippers

Winter is nearly upon us, so the timing is perfect to get your mum into something a little bit fluffy. We've got these cute Puma slides, the iconic ugg style boots or let your mum take a walk on the wild side with a pair of fuzzy lined Crocs.

5. A spiffy new sweatshirt

The good thing about our Locale hoods and crews, is that they 're just as good for running errands as they are for lounging around the house. They make the perfect gift for any mum who loves being comfortable but also likes to look good.

6. Home baked goods

Maybe your mum is the one who normally does the baking - well not for mother's day! Show her how much you appreciate her by whipping up a batch of her favourite cookies or treats. Here's our tried and true recipe for banana choc chip muffins if you need it.

Banana Choc Chip Muffins

Ingredients:
2 cups self-raising flour
1/2 cup caster sugar
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/2 tsp salt

100 grams butter
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 cup (2-3) mashed bananas

Directions:
With a fork, stir together in a large bowl the flour, caster sugar, chocolate chips and salt.
In another container, melt the butter, remove from the heat, then add the milk, egg and vanilla and beat well.
Mash and measure the bananas and stir them into the liquid. Tip all the liquid mixture into the bowl with the dry mixture. Fold everything together carefully until all the flour is dampened, stopping before the mixture is smooth.
Butter a medium muffin tray and put about 1/4 cup of mixture into each cup.
Bake at 220°C for 12-15 minutes, until muffins spring back when pressed in the centre.

7. Jeans to die for

Mom jeans, schmom jeans, we know your mum is radder than that! Get her a pair of denims that will make her feel as good as she looks such as one of these straight legged pairs from Levi's, Thrills or Neuw. We know picking out jeans isn't always easy so we'll throw in free returns on denim to make sure she gets her dream pair.

8. Take a hike

One of our favourite things to do with Mum is go for a walk or hike somewhere beautiful. It's a great way to catch up and get some fresh air. Plus, there's nothing like being in nature to clear your head and reset.

9. A graphic tee

While you're at it, you might as well get the whole 'fit and dress up those jeans with a graphic tee. Keep it oversized for an easy and effortless look.

10. Organise a wine tasting

DIY it at home or head out to your local vineyard, mums that love their wine will be stoked with this gift. Quality wine time is ALWAYS a good time.

11. Full shade

We love a mum with taste, and a pair of cat-eye sunglasses will definitely put a strut in her step. Totally sleek and suits most faces, we know she'll love these options from Szade, Ray-Ban and Privé.

12. Calvin Klein goodness

Let's be real, there's a good chance your mum hasn't topped up her undie drawer since before you were born. Help her out with a fresh new set of Calvin Klein's, we promise she'll love them as much as you do.

13. Watch her fave movie together

What's your mum's favourite movie? Ours is probably Dirty Dancing or Steel Magnolias. You can't go wrong with a classic. Make some popcorn, put your feet up, and enjoy spending some time together watching her all-time favourite film.

14. Fe-dora-ble

Accessories, accessories, accessories. Whip mum into shape with good habits AND fun ways to spice up her drobe', like adding one of our Brixton Fedoras to her weekend OOTD. These hats can be worn winter through till autumn - so they'll defs' get some wear!

15. Take her on a shopping trip

Guys, we've even created you a printable voucher. Just tuck this badboy into a card, grab some flowers from the dairy and make her day with a shopping trip that's entirely future you's problem.

There's no doubt about it, mums are the best. Show your appreciation this Mother's Day with one of these thoughtful gifts or experiences. From breakfast in bed to a new pair of jeans, we've got you covered. And if all else fails, take her shopping... she'll definitely appreciate that. Happy Mother's Day!
