By Glorious
We know that whilst your mother may be your favourite person in the world, she can also be the trickiest person to buy for! A Sunday roast or a bouquet of flowers are failsafe options for a Mother’s Day gift, but why not buy her something a little different? This year give that special person a present that will improve her wellbeing! We’ve compiled a list of our favourite items the sporty woman in your life will love!

MAAREE
Everyone needs an extra bit of support! Sports bras are a very complex piece of equipment and an essential part of our workout gear. With so many fashion-based companies releasing (non science-based) sportswear, it’s always been difficult to navigate the world of sports bras, until we found MAAREE! We love how comfortable, stylish and versatile all their products are, but particularly their award-winning Solidarity High Impact Sports Bra. The bra is designed with impact in mind! Perfect for anyone who loves exercise like HIIT, running and combat. The adjustable Overband, convertible shoulder straps and a design using non-elastic and elastic panelling, make for the perfect combination of comfort and performance. Sizes range from 30C to 38G. Solidarity High Impact Sports Bra £64

Jiya London Jewellery
We can’t get enough of boutique jewellery brand Jiya London! This mother and daughter duo create contemporary Asian jewellery and accessories to prove that the style can be worn both day and night, not just as costume statements in the evening. Unique bohemian, colourful, handmade jewellery featuring a rainbow of designs, like this Santorini Barquoe pearl necklace (£37). From personalised initial pieces, to more sleek and fluid gold and silver collections, semi-precious gemstones and natural pearls you’ll be sure to find something your mum will wear forever!
The Ocean Bottle
Stay hydrated AND help the environment?! When you buy an Ocean Bottle, you fund the collection of 1000 ocean-bound plastic bottles before they reach the water. Locals in coastal communities exchange this plastic for money through a regulated banking system so they can get access to microfinance, tuition, healthcare and other things they need. And you get an award-winning reusable bottle for life. The stylish design keeps your cold drinks cold and your hot drinks hot. Ice, soup, coffee, and smoothies are all good, thanks to its double lid that lets you sip, fill, pour and clean with joy! Want to make her Ocean Bottle extra special? The company also offer custom engraving!
Spa Break!
REALLY want to spoil your mum? The Chewton Glen Hotel is a must! It’s been voted ‘Best Hotel in the British Isles’ and the traditional British restaurant has garnered numerous awards, but don’t let that sway you – Chewton Glen has to be experienced personally to be enjoyed properly. With a staff-to-guest ratio of two-to-one, it’s impossible not to feel like pampered royalty at this world-renowned boutique hotel in Hampshire. Combining the old-school elegance of the Jeeves & Wooster era with a style-sharp modern sensibility (treehouse suite, anyone?), this hotel, spa, restaurant and country club is as seductive as it is suave!
This Works
Sleep in a bottle! Relaxation and sleep are arguably some of the best gifts that can be given! If your mum is in need of a good night’s sleep (let’s be honest, who isn’t?) This Works’s pillow spray is an absolute must. Formulated with a soothing blend of Lavender, Vetivert and Wild Camomile essential oils will help calm the mind in preparation for a restorative slumber.
On Running Shoes
We’ve all been swooning over the new Loewe and On running recent collaboration. From running shoes to anoraks, the collection combines hand craftsmanship with technical engineering. On running shoes feature the first patented cushioning system which is activated only when you need it – during the landing! A must if you haven’t tried, it’s truly like running on clouds! We love these limited edition ‘Cloudventure LOEWE’ trail running shoes born in the Swiss Alps, recontextualized with LOEWE’s handcraft heritage for £295. Bit out of your price range? Other On Running shoe lines start at £120.
TRENDYGOLF
Despite summer being just around the corner, we also know that you can never depend on the British weather! Base layers are an absolute must. Whether she’s hitting the fairways, practising yoga or walking the dog, this Nike Women’s Dri-Fit UV Victory LS Crew Top (£49) from our friends at TRENDYGOLF is sure to go down a storm! It is made with lightweight, moisture wicking, quick dry fabric for comfort and can be worn as a base layer or on its own.
