Mother's Day is the one designated day a year where we get to show our moms just how much they mean to us. They may humiliate us and drive us nuts, but at the end of the day there's no one who understands us more.

While this may be true, we sometimes forget Mother's Day actually exists, and we feel really bad about it.

Here are 7 last-minute gift ideas to get mom, which are just as great if you remembered to buy them earlier.

1. Alex and Ani Mom Charm Bracelet


What better way to tell your mom that you love her than with some bling. This Alex and Ani bangle comes in gold, rose gold, and silver, and goes with everything in your mom's closet. You also don't have to worry about the size because it is adjustable for all sizes!

2. Bath Salts

Our moms do so much for us and our family, and they deserve some alone time to relax in a warm bubble bath. There are so many products to choose from, so your bound to find something that you know your mom will love.

3. Spa Trip

Take the bubble bath to the next level by giving your mom the spa day of her dreams: deep tissue massages, seaweed wraps, the works. Depending on where you go, it may be a little pricey, but that's ok, this is your mom's special day. Plus, she had to put up with you, so you kind of owe her.

4. Baked by Melissa Mother's Day Cupcakes

These NYC based delicious mini cupcakes are a sweet thank you for all the hard work your mom does for you. If the Mother's Day selection isn't to your liking (or your mother's for that matter), no worries! You can choose your own flavors in a custom pack. Bonus: they ship nationwide!

5. Personalized Phone/Laptop Case

We know our mom's need their technology as much as we do, so why not give them something personal that they will use all the time? Skinit has a massive selection of customizable cases, sleeves, and more for all of your mom's tech.

6. DIY Custom Mug

If your mom is a coffee or tea drinker, a custom mug is the perfect way to say "I love you." Get a white mug and some Sharpies and decorate a mug you know your mom will love - write her favorite quote, draw a cute picture, really anything goes. Once you're finished, bake it at 300 degrees for 35 minutes, and viola!

7. Tickets to "Mother's Day"

This might not seem like the best gift, but nothing beats spending quality time with mom. You can make a night of it by having a Mother's Day dinner beforehand, and then relaxing with some buttery popcorn and a cheesy movie.


Regardless of what you get mom, make sure she knows just how much you love and appreciate her. She is your mother afterall.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
