The Best Gifts For Experienced Moms
As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.
You have mastered the art of swaddling, can unhook a car seat with one hand, and can't even remember how you filled your time before kids. The bottom line: you deserve to be rewarded on a daily basis and especially during the crazy holiday season. Add one (or two . . . or more) of the following gifts to your list — or just buy them for yourself! From beauty and caffeine fixes to easy, kid-proof wardrobe updates, these presents are perfect for stylish been-there-done-that mamas.
Clarisonic Mia Sonic Skin Cleansing System
You don't have time for facials, and your kids have added years to your face. The solution is most definitely a Clarisonic Mia Sonic Skin Cleansing System ($99). It's like getting a facial every day, and it helps eliminate acne, shrink pores, and reduce wrinkles and fine lines. A must for every busy, beauty-treatment-deprived mom.
Athleta Herringbone Sly Drifter Tight
For the mom whose daily routine doesn't include a midday wardrobe change, we're loving Athleta's Herringbone Sly Drifter Tight ($84). They make the transition from the carpool lane to yoga to coffee with friends to PTA meetings look effortless (and really good)!
Loeffler Randall Mini Rider Bag
Graduate from that diaper bag in style. Loeffler Randall's Mini Rider Bag ($395) lets you keep your hands free for kid emergencies. The crossbody bag features a push-lock closure and offers just enough storage for the essentials.
J.Crew Crystal Drop Necklace
Maybe you don't shop like you did in your prebaby days, but one great statement necklace, like J.Crew's Crystal Drops Necklace ($58), will update anything in your closet.
Starbucks Verismo 580 Brewer
If your day starts with a stop at your local Starbucks (and what mom's day doesn't?), consider shaving a few moments out of your already-crazy morning routine by purchasing a Starbucks Verismo 580 Brewer ($99).
POPSUGAR Must Have Subscription
OK, time for a little shameless self-promotion here . . . but in this case, it's totally warranted. We're all addicted to POPSUGAR's very own Must Have subscription service ($40 per month). Each month, a box of our editors' favorite goodies from the worlds of fitness, fashion, beauty, home decor, and food arrives at your doorstep (no sample sizes here — it's all the real deal). It's the gift that keeps on giving!
Sarah Chloe Adjustable Love Bangle
Moms need lots of love, and this bracelet is just the ticket. Sarah Chloe's chic Love bangle ($139) comes in sterling silver, yellow gold, and rose gold. It's perfect for stacking or delicate and pretty on its own, too.
Frye Valerie 6 Shearling Boot
Frye's Valerie 6 Shearling Boot ($428) will become your everyday Winter footwear essential, thanks to its cushy shearling lining and downtown-cool look. The boots feature oversize antiqued silver buckles and merge practicality and style flawlessly.
Anthropologie Breton Apron
Being stuck in the kitchen can be a mom reality, but you'll look supercute while cooking in Anthropologie's Breton Apron ($88). The machine-washable apron has thoughtful details and goes with just about everything — perfect for all of your seasonal culinary and entertaining endeavors.
The Maids Service
I don't know a single mother who wouldn't love some help cleaning up her house. The Maids offers cleaning services all around the country. I'd recommend asking for a monthly deep-cleaning for a whole year. Now that's a present that keeps giving.
iPad Mini
Your kids stole your family's first iPad, so upgrade to the iPad Mini ($399). It's everything that first iPad was, and maybe it's just small enough to hide from those tiny technology thieves.
Essex LA — The Louie Clutch
The Essex LA Louie Clutch ($150-$185) not only lets you keep all your essentials organized, but you get to choose your own color combination of leather, zipper, and lining. It's a perfect small bag for a night out or the perfect addition to your overstuffed diaper bag.
C. Wonder Delicate Enamel Zodiac Necklace
A great layering piece at an even better price, C. Wonder's delicate enamel zodiac necklace ($44) lets you showcase your kid love to the world with a more subtle nod than a monogram or nameplate.
