Macy's Mother's Day Gift Ideas
Is Mom fashion-forward? Find affordable fashion and accessories in the season's hottest trends like soft pastels, bold primaries and daring floral prints. Classic pastels and color-blocking return to the fashion stage this spring in feminine blouses from Alfani that mom can wear all the way into fall. All-over floral print dresses from Lauren by Ralph Lauren and Jones New York are available in a range of silhouettes to make it easy for any mom to go from daytime to evening without having to think twice.

Jewelry from Betsey Johnson and Givenchy will ensure that mom stands out from the crowd at that special event. Does mom need help keeping track of her busy schedule? An Anne Klein or Michael Michael Kors watch is a thoughtful keepsake that will help keep her on track on busy days. Oversized handbags are a must-have trend this season, and totes by Brahmin or Dooney & Bourke are just right. This year, mom can step out looking stylish in sunglasses from Coach or reveal her inner shoe diva with wedges by Circa Joan & David. If mom is in need of some well-deserved pampering, revive her senses with fragrances such as the new Lancôme Tresór in Bloom collection and L'Eau de Chloe perfumes.

Having trouble finding the right gift? Gift cards are always a perfect go-to, allowing mom to treat herself.
