Mother’s Day Gift Guide with the Santa Rosa Plaza

With Mother’s Day just around the corner (It’s May 13 th for any husbands out there needing a
reminder), I knew Mark would need a little push in the gift giving department….so I sent him
over to the Santa Rosa Plaza (aka my fave place for gift shopping). I stopped by the plaza a few
weeks ago to compile a list of gifts for myself (to show Mark), and for my mom, too!

My first stop was Abercrombie and Fitch. I immediately fell in love with this adorable beach bag
and these super-comfy PJ bottoms (that elastic waistband is too good). Abercrombie swimwear
is also oh-so- cute, whether you’re on the hunt for a one or two piece. I’m also all about adding a cute scarf in my hair these days and this one is affordable and adorable!

Next on my list was Charlotte Russe. While this is typically thought of as a store for younger
girls, I found these amazing sandals for only $5 and knew I needed them STAT! They’re not only
colorful and comfortable, but they’re also perfect to wear all summer long.

I also found some perfect pieces at Aldo. From chic shoes to summertime-perfect sunglasses,
the store is constantly stocked with styles that are perfect for all day every day – and budget-
friendly, too. BTW what mom doesn’t love a great pair of shoes?
Pacific Sunwear had some of the most comfortable Calvin Klein underwear. I always find that
underpinnings are great gifts, because most people don’t shop for them that often.

For easy and affordable gift ideas, head to Franceseca’s! That’s where Mark got me this
adorable coffee mug and Mama Book to prep me for the arrival of my new babe. They had such
a wide selection of gifts for everyone on your list.

Last but not least – run, don’t walk to Kay Jeweler’s. If you’re looking to really treat the mama
in your life, stop here to pick up some jewelry. Whether it’s a rose gold infinity ring or a subtle
everyday necklace, Kay Jeweler’s has something for everyone.

If you’re looking for a Mother’s Day gift and live near the Santa Rosa Plaza, you must stop in to
pick up everything you need for the ladies you love most. It really is a one-stop- shop for all
things Mother’s Day (and everyday!).
