Mother's Day Gift Guide

Mother's Day is just 10 days away. Did you get your mommy dearest a lovely gift yet? Chances are, you're a procrastinator like me so I've rounded up a few gift ideas below.

Nothing makes a mom feel more sexy than lingerie. The soft and comfy French Lession underwire bra ($38) and matching thong ($22) from Blush Lingerie feature delicate black stretch lace, tiny pink satin bows, contrast pink lace lining and contrast pink mesh-lined cups. The price points are also friendly on the wallet. Avalable at Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters.

The deluxe Fresh Crème Ancienne Anti-Aging Skincare Set ($150) features the cult fave Crème Ancienne, a highly effective anti-aging moisturizer. This exclusive paraben-free formula is hand-blended in a European monastery to preserve its ingredient integrity. The set also includes popular products like the Soy Face Cleanser, Black Tea Instant Perfecting Mask, and the Crème Ancienne Eye Cream. Available at www.fresh.com.

Kuleto Estate has a few lovely wines to charm the foodie mom. The elegant and balanced Kuleto Estate 2009 Chardonnay ($45) is heady and citrus-forward wine. For something more intense the 2008 Estate Syrah ($40) contains hints of lavender honey and pepper while the 2008 Estate Zinfandel ($35) explodes with blackberry and cherry flavors.

Votre Vu has two gift sets to keep mom young and pretty. The Flowers for Her Face ($46) set contains a pampering Portrait Collar, a lush crème for the neck and décolleté. The restorative rose hip oil, marine elastin, and shea butter help smooth and strengthen the neckline. The other product, Tout Le Monde Eye Gelée, contains Roman chamomile and Melissa extract to tone and tighten the eye area. For another relaxing treat, the Sweep Her off Her Feet ($32) features Très Magni-feet Exfoliant, an exhilarating bamboo foot scrub, and the richly hydrating Très Magni-feet Crème.

Vosges has an amazing Flowers + Chocolate Gift Box ($77) that will thrill any mom to pieces. Vibrant, chartreuse moss surrounds the 16-piece Les Fleurs du Chocolat Truffle Collection. A small bouquet of preserved flowers accompany the truffles, and they won't lose their color long after the chocolates are eaten. Available at www.vosgeschocolate.com.

The bright and lively Prosecco ($12) has creamy flavors of ripe lemons and refined citrus notes while the 2009 Red Velvet ($12) is a smooth blend of Zinfandel, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.
