From navigating our tantrums as toddlers to helping us through our personal and professional heartbreaks as adults, is there anything the moms in our lives don’t do for us? That’s why it’s so essential to get your mom (or favorite maternal role model) a gift that’s significantly more inspired than your average paperweight or funny calendar this holiday season. We’ve found all the best gifts for moms that won’t find themselves topping her White Elephant pile at work or laid to rest in the back of your childhood home’s china cabinet. Instead, we’ve picked only the cream of the top from brands like Anthropologie, Nordstrom Rack, and Jenni Kayne, including covetable cardigans, delicate beaded pouches, cozy slippers from luxury brands, and thoughtful gifts that fall under the $100 mark.
