The Mother-in-Law Quest

Whenever I travel overseas bringing back a scarf for both my mom and my husband's mom is a pretty safe bet. It always fits, it's functional while still being stylish, and they're not too hard to pick out. That's why a scarf is my mother-in-law gift choice for Mother's Day. Sometimes buying for someone else's mom - no matter how close you guys are - can be difficult. Of course, it becomes even MORE challenging if you're NOT close! Which is a why a scarf covers all the bases.

It's not so impersonal that she wonders why you even bothered - like, say, flowers or something in the "World's Greatest Mom" category. But at the same time it's not so personal that you have to know her size, her exact taste, her preferences in designers and stores, etc.

You can pick among many different options - from cute to sophisticated, you'll always be able to find something that suits her personality!
