We’re Doing All Our Mother’s Day Shopping at Macy’s (& These Are Our Favorite Gift Ideas)

There’s a reason jewelry is the first thing you think of when it comes to Mother’s Day gifts—because it’s never not a good idea. From personalized charms to mixed metals (two of the top jewelry trends we’re tracking this year), Macy’s has a gift to suit both your budget and mom’s unique taste. And if you’re not sure where to start, may we suggest a versatile watch—like the two-tone style from Fossil above—or a classic diamond tennis bracelet she can wear every day? They’re timeless for a reason.   

Whether mom is a beauty product-devotee or a makeup minimalist, Macy’s has a wide array of popular brands that’ll have her looking (and feeling) her best. Fragrances, face oils, frizz control—we could go on. We also love their commitment to featuring diverse-owned brands and sustainable styles, like Fashion Fair, a Black-owned beauty and skincare line made in a range of shades for women of color.

For those with little ones, a mommy-and-me moment never fails. (So. Cute.) Coordinating mom and daughter outfits are perfect for a celebratory brunch or fun dress-up day. Go all in with identical dresses or the more subtle route with a sweet necklace set. You could also take the theme in an entirely different direction—think: an adorable grandma-and-me book or a baking set featuring matching adult and child-size aprons.  

So you’re planning on making—well, buying—mom breakfast in bed…why not pair your gesture with some super-soft pajamas that fit just right, or a stylish knit loungewear set she won’t want to take off? (And if it’s Mother’s Day, she shouldn’t have to.) She’ll look forward to slipping into her brand-new PJs at the end of a long day and you can rest easy knowing your gift goes a long way.

Something polished she can throw on for a busy workday. A low-effort look that’ll help her beat the heat (and look good doing it). A vacay-ready tunic she can pack for Palm Springs. Macy’s has a plethora of dress options for every style, size and at every price point. You can’t go wrong with one of these carefully selected picks below, but if you’re looking for more, Macy’s dress shop is a true treasure trove.
