A charm bracelet is timeless, and we love Annoushka's modern take – the Mythology yellow gold bangle, fastened with white sapphire clasps. Personalised to each wearer with an initial, Zodiac, and delicate polished gold heart charm, knowing you can add additional charms for many Mother's Days to come, makes it all the more appealing.

We are particularly fond of Yellow Hibiscus: a dazzling light floral scent of bright hibiscus, soft rose, and clean white musk. She'll be in love with the bottle even before the first whiff.

Bella Freud’s bold slogans are her signature, and this red candle emblazoned with ‘Loving’ sends the perfect message for Mother’s Day. The scent is instantly hypnotic: a heady concoction of tuberose, amber, and sandalwood, which fills the room before it's even lit. Once burned, the vessel makes a smart pot for make-up brushes or pens too.

Our treasured handbags (remember those?!) have been stowed away for months, but now it’s time to get reacquainted.

Lightweight, with external and internal pockets for maximum organisation, it marries style and function perfectly. Available in myriad colours we are particularly fond of 'Olive': a softer alternative to black or brown for spring.
