Waking up to breakfast in bed is what many Moms will be greeted to this Mother’s day. Here’s our gift guide for some stylish ways to treat her- not only to breakfast in bed, but in Between the Sheets.
PS Mother’s Day is Sunday May 12th, and we’re guaranteeing orders to US placed by May 7th will get there on time.
A model of grace and charm, the Classic Mom makes style decisions that are timeless and pretty. She’s not going to jump on the latest tween trend or be caught reading anything other than classic lit. She has that magical way of making life feel grounded. Find her something luxurious in classic colors, with subtle details that let her beauty shine through.
Loungwear is the new sleepwear, and the Classic mom has never been into anything with silly prints or doilies – so this is right up her alley. Elegantly draped and beautiful, these updates to the classic pajama are perfect served up with something like fresh baked scones and tea Mother’s Day morning.

right: Our new Venus in Play pajamas have been a huge hit, and this new Deep Navy is part of our pre-fall offering for Mother’s Day. Pretty and practical for the Mom who likes to look stylish and put together upon waking.
The Glamorous Mom hasn’t let go of her patent pumps, and probably rocks a designer diaper bag with jewels. Motherhood is another excuse to make life beautiful and stylish, and part of that includes stylish dressing. Don’t shy away from color or couture quality details that she’ll more than appreciate. Silks or styles in rich luxurious colors will make her sparkle.
There are “robes” and then there are ROBES – ahem, perhaps its more appropriate to call these Dressing Gowns, because our Glamorous mom doesn’t even wake up “undressed”, she wakes up like a screen siren of yesteryear. Serve up one of these delicate delights with crepes l’orange and mimosas on Mother’s Day.

She may not have read all the baby books, or had a focus group to choose baby names – but this Mom has that joie de vivre that lights up the room. She makes play doh and food fights look fabulous, and she lets her little ones know that its ok if life gets a little messy – in fact it makes it more fun! Find her something easy, effortless, and relaxed that she can play in.
The Rebel Mom knows how to get up and go, and that means she needs something she can roll out of bed and hit the ground running in. These styles she can pair with denim and sneakers and hop on the back of a motorcycle, or whatever means of transportation is hip these days. Serve these numbers up with a spicy frittata and bloody mary or blood orange mimosa picnic style indoors or out.
left: She’ll jet off to that hip coffee shop or yoga studio as easily as she can travel in our Well Played loungewear, matching or paired with jeans she’ll figure out a way to make it her own.
right: Venus in Play Tee and Shortie in mix and match colors (she is not one of those girls who needs to match their shoes and bag, so throw out the rules) are as comfortable, wearable, and washable as her busy lifestyle demands.

We believe Moms should get the special treatment all year round, but life is busy and sometimes things fall on the backburner. Not this month! Mother’s day is less than a month away (May 13th) so we’ve put together a curated selection of our best-selling styles (our own mom’s have approved a lot of these) for the different mother figures in your life. One thing all Moms seem to share in common is that they spend a lot of time doing things for others, depending on what stage of motherhood they’re in their schedules may change drastically but that one factor stays the same. Nothing reminds her to relax, rest, and get a little more “me” time than lounge and sleepwear, and that is what we are all about… Here are some styles sure to make Mom proud

Bye bye skinny jeans, at least for now. Mom-to-be is sleeping for two, and dressing for two different bodies can be a chore. Why not get her something that will fit and flatter her body before, during, AND after the bundle of joy arrives?
Our Well Played yoga pant with foldover waist band that can flip up and shape to her growing belly, with high lycra content it will stay fit even if she goes up a size. Good news is they are also perfect for post-baby workouts. Opt for a darker “babyproof” color like dusk (dark blue), shade (purplish grey), or midnight (black).
Pair it with our Playdate babydoll has the most flattering swing shape with almost a full half circle cascading over your curves there is plenty of room for a growing baby bump. Post pregnancy it will be the perfect sensual slip to get her groove back in.

Long nights, no sleep, and a changing body have her wondering what happened to her golden years – that bundle of joy was worth the wait but she still wants to feel pretty. Just because the bar for comfort is raised doesn’t mean the bar for style should be lowered – get her loungewear that can handle her round the clock schedule.
Well Played Cardigan plays all sides- sleeves stay up and don’t slide down for dishes, diapers, and more. the front ties up and makes a great beach cover up- perfect on those chilly nights at the beach or on vacation. better yet, passing out after a crazy day in this is just as dreamy as waking up in, same can’t be said for jeans… pair it with the well played lounge pant for the perfect on the lounge alternative.

Fast forward, the kids are all grown up and have flown the coup. Long gone are the sleepless nights of infancy and the hectic afterschool scheduling. Her attention can finally rest back on the nest, and whether that means picking up an old hobby, or redecorating a room, there is plenty of time for lounging and enjoying the sweet silence.
Birds of Play legging and Playdate tank are the perfect way to lounge in style, and definitely a step up from a baggy tshirt and sweats which can become a convenient alternative.

She’s happy to take a backseat to the nitty gritty of parenting and enjoy her ability to spoil her grandkids. She might not be running back and forth from gymnastics to soccer or driving a minivan but she wants to look and feel chic hosting movie night in her own home, no granny panties or pajammies allowed. For the stylish Grand Mother opt for something with a little understated luxury like a cozy soft robe with silk or lace, and a super chic wide leg pant that flatters almost every body!
Our playdate or playfield robes are the perfect PJ alternative, chic and sophisticated with lots of coverage and made of breathable and soft modal. Playdate is a modal/silk blend trimmed with delicate mesh, and playfield is a modal/spandex rib jersey trimmed with cotton lace, pair either back to the playdate pant for a perfect year round lounge set that she’ll love.
