Mother's Day Gift Guide Montreal
There’s almost no one we love more than our mommy, but when it comes to buying her a Mother’s Day gift, we’re often at a loss for how to show our appreciation. Here are five gifts that she’ll surely love.
We love this beautiful cross-body Messenger ($580) from Buenos Aires based luxury leather line, Peter Kent, to add a punch of bright sorbet colour to her summer outfits. At JoshuaDAVID, 4926 Sherbrooke St. W., Westmount, 514-788-4436, www.peterkentcanada.com
She’s a little bundle of energy and so is the Nespresso Pixie ($269), which is smaller, faster and more energy-efficient than previous models. And so cute. Just like mom. Nespresso Boutique, 2045 Crescent St., Montreal, 1-800-562-1465, www.nespresso.com
It might be risky to buy mom a classic wrap dress, but we can still pick her up some DVF with these Auro Shadows plates (26.99 – 79.99) from Diane von Furstenberg’s new home fashion line at The Bay. The Bay, 585 ST. Catherine St. West, Montreal, 514-281-4422, www.hbc.com
If your mom is the carnivore type, wrap up these summery steak knives ($8 each) by Victorinox Swiss Army so she can slice her sirloin in style. At Doyon Cuisine, 8505, Quartier Brossard Blvd., Montreal, 450-462-5555, www.swissarmy.com
You’ve offered up enough stress, so now give her the gift of soothing calm scents with a lavender plant for her indoor or outdoor garden from Quebec-based Bleu Lavende ($9.95 with purchase of $40 or more). Bleu Lavande, 705 Ste.Catherine W., Montreal, 514-284-3624, www.bleulavande.ca
We love you, mom! —JN
