When it comes to Mother’s Day, we think it’s really important to celebrate all the wonderful lessons she has passed on. From inspiring us to reach for our dreams to helping us find the courage to be ourselves, mum has always been there guiding us along the way.
The perfect Mother’s Day gift celebrates all the times mum has been a source of wisdom and inspiration. It also gives us the opportunity to give back and inspire mum in turn. We asked some of our UK Team Members to tell us about their mums, as well as the gifts they’ll be giving this Mother’s Day.

What’s something your mum has given you?
My mum was not the stereotypical Italian mother, teaching me how to cook, but she taught me to be free, to live my life, follow my dreams, and to never let someone put me down because I can be whoever I want. She’s encouraged me to work from a young age, and she’s really proud of me.
What are you giving your mum for Mother’s Day?
A kikki.K tea cup and milk jug, plus the large inspiration candle are perfect for some ‘me time’ – and the Leather Essentials Envelope Clutch, monogrammed with her initials. It’s bright – just like mum’s personality!

What’s something your mum has given you?
Mum has given me the belief that it’s far more rewarding to put others’ needs ahead of your own – whenever someone is sick or in need, she is there within minutes with a casserole, a fruit cake, and a shoulder to cry on.
What are you giving your mum for Mother’s Day?
This year, I’m giving my mum the Dreams Journal and pen from our Inspiration Collection. I’d love to see my mum take more time to focus on herself, and start to realise all the dreams that she has put on the back burner while she raised three children. I’m also going to treat her to a monogrammed Leather Travel Wallet and Luggage Tag to inspire her to travel more now that we’ve all moved out of home – and my sister and I are on different continents!

What’s something your mum has given you?
My mother has inspired my love for writing. She has also taught me about happiness.
What are you giving your mum for Mother’s Day?
One of the lessons my mother has taught me is the importance of taking a moment and deciding what is best for you, whether it be a heathy meal or takeout; a jog or a movie night in. For this Mother’s Day, I would choose the Happiness Journal from the Inspiration Collection. I would love for my mother to be able to look back at exactly what makes her happy.
