Luxury Mother's Day gifts quick picks So she can skip the long line at the coffee shop: De'Longhi La Specialista Opera Espresso Machine Her new go-to handbag: Cuyana Concertina Shoulder Bag For at-home movie nights: BenQ HT2060 Home Projector Elevated hot chocolate: Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser Starter Kit Whether you're looking to gift your mom new luggage or a coffee maker with all the bells and whistles, springing for a luxury gift this Mother's Day is a fantastic way to treat her to something nice, especially if she's not the type to spend a lot of money on herself. To help you find a Mother's Day gift that she'll talk about for years to come, we've rounded up some of the fanciest, sure-to-impress gifts to surprise her with. While some of these gifts might be a bit of a splurge, investing in a quality item will ensure it lasts longer. Plus, she's worth it! Cuyana Concertina Shoulder Bag If Mom needs a new everyday handbag, she'll love this timeless leather version from Cuyana. It has five interior compartments to help organize her belongings and a snap closure to keep things from spilling out. Our newsletter editor Lindsey Smith bought this shoulder bag for herself and loves that it can hold everything she needs without getting bulky. Naadam Luxe Cashmere Duster Cardigan Made from ultra-soft Mongolian cashmere, this relaxed-fit cardigan will quickly become the most-worn item in her wardrobe. We love that it can be paired with slacks and a nice blouse for the office or styled more casually with jeans, sandals and a white T-shirt for the weekend. Lost Pattern Large Silk Square Scarf A mulberry silk scarf is an easy way for Mom to add a bit of flair to her outfits, whether she uses it as a chic hair accessory or ties it to her handbag for a carefree Jane Birkin look (minus the Birkin price tag). This square scarf from Lost Pattern features a beautiful floral pattern that's perfect for spring. Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Leather Card Case A slim leather card case is a worthy alternative to a bulkier traditional wallet, especially when it looks as nice as Bottega Veneta's. In addition to six slots to stash her ID and credit cards, it also has a center slot to hold loose bills. Lunya Washable Silk Long-Sleeve Pants Set Lunya's washable silk PJs are loved by several CNN Underscored staffers, including senior lifestyle editor Tamara Kraus, who has the brand's Washable Silk Tee Set. This breathable pants set is perfect for year-round wear and is so chic that it might convince her to ditch her old sleep shirts for good. Brilliant Earth Hydrangea Bouquet Pendant Jewelry for Mother's Day is always a safe option, especially if Mom never leaves the house without throwing on a pair of earrings or a bracelet. We love the look of Brilliant Earth's stunning Hydrangea Bouquet Pendant, which features a London Blue topaz, sapphire, aquamarine and diamond cluster. FitFlop F-Mode Jewel-Deluxe Metallic-Leather Flatform Toe-Post Sandals With a chic flatform shape and clusters of crystals cut to catch the light, these sandals can go from a luxe Mother's Day brunch to evenings at the beach. Thanks to their foot-health-focused FitFlop design, they're perfect for moms who want style and comfort. NuFace Trinity+ Starter Kit The FDA-cleared NuFace Trinity+ Smart Advanced Facial Toning Device uses microcurrents to firm and sculpt the face, making it an ideal gift for any mom looking to minimize the appearance of wrinkles right at home. As part of the starter kit, she'll also receive a charging cradle and power adapter, the brand's Aqua Gel Activator and its Silk Crème Activator. Read our review Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Makeup Secrets Kit This four-piece makeup kit from Charlotte Tilbury includes an eye shadow palette, lipstick, lip liner and blush in the brand's iconic Pillow Talk hue, so your mom can create glamorous makeup looks for special occasions (like that upcoming wedding) or her next date night, or just on the daily. Dyson Supersonic r The Dyson Supersonic r may come with a hefty price tag, but it's worth the money if Mom needs a lightweight hair dryer that still packs a punch. Beauty and fashion editor Sophie Shaw loves that it has an ergonomic design that makes it easy to use. She also appreciates that she's able to hear her podcasts while using the our review UrbanStems Flower Delivery Subscription Nothing brightens up a space like a cheery floral arrangement. If your mom loves having fresh flowers around the home, she's sure to appreciate a monthly delivery of them from UrbanStems, which you can pay for as you go or as a one-time gift. Read our review De'Longhi La Specialista Opera Espresso Machine Mom deserves a coffee maker that can produce top-notch brews every time. The De'Longhi La Specialista Opera Espresso Machine is the best we've tested and is a great option for the more experienced at-home barista. Our testers praised its ability to quickly heat up and make smooth, rich brews with ease. Read our review Parachute Brushed Cotton Venice Set Sound sleep is nonnegotiable, and luxe bedding is a thoughtful way to help Mom recharge. The Brushed Cotton Venice Set comes in four sizes — full, queen, king and California king — and includes pillowcases, a fitted sheet and a duvet cover so she can make over her bed in one swoop. If she prefers the more relaxed look of linen bedding, the brand's linen sheets would make a great alternative. Caraway Half Bakeware Set Whether she's a self-proclaimed Martha Stewart or only finds herself in the kitchen on holidays, she'll appreciate having quality bakeware on hand. This set from Caraway includes two baking sheets, a muffin pan and a rectangular pan, plus a cabinet organizer to prevent an avalanche. The brand also sells a Mini Bakeware Set or an 11-piece Bakeware Set if those fit her needs better. Vitruvi Stone Ceramic Diffuser The Vitruvi Stone Ceramic Diffuser is perfect for the mom who wants to enjoy the benefits of aromatherapy but isn't sure where to start. We love that it has an LED light for ambient lighting, a safety shut-off feature to prevent accidents, two timer settings and an eight-hour run time. Social director Stephanie Griffin uses her diffuser as part of her bedtime routine and appreciates that it helps her fall asleep faster. The best part? It doubles as decor. Le Creuset 5.5-Quart Round Dutch Oven Le Creuset's 5.5-quart enameled Dutch oven soared to the top of our testing pool because of its durability and how well it retains and distributes heat. We love that the heirloom-worthy piece of cookware is dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning. Read our review Hatch Restore 3 If Mom has talked about adopting better sleep habits, the Hatch Restore 3 has her name all over it. The brand recently released the device in a limited-edition shade called Rosy, a dreamy rose gold, but it also comes in other relaxing colors like Putty, Greige and Cocoa. Since last year, I've been using an older version of the Hatch (the Restore 2) practically every night. Fellow Stagg EKG Electric Kettle An electric kettle is essential for the big tea or pour-over coffee drinker. This one from Fellow has a gooseneck spout for precise pours and a high-resolution display that easily lets you adjust its settings. With this handy gadget, Mom will be a pro barista in no time. The Bartesian Cocktail Maker If your mom looks forward to her weekend espresso martinis but is still honing her mixology skills, look no further than Bartesian's premium cocktail maker. Our associate testing writer Carolina Gazal found it easy to assemble, use and clean during testing. She also liked that she could make mocktails or customize the strength of her our review Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser Starter Kit For the mom who loves an indulgent treat, the Hotel Chocolat Velvetiser Starter Kit is sure to satisfy her sweet tooth. I have the hot chocolate maker in Copper and love how beautiful it looks on my countertop. Plus, it's easy and quick to use. The brand's starter kit includes two dishwasher-safe ceramic mugs, four boxes of chocolate flakes and the Velvetiser in your choice of color: Charcoal, Copper or Platinum. Jo Malone Lilac Lavender and Lovage Townhouse Candle The Jo Malone Lilac Lavender and Lovage Townhouse Candle smells just as divine as it looks. With a burn time of up to 70 hours, it will surely get plenty of use. Once the candle is burned, she can reuse the vessel as storage or as a piece of decor. Briggs & Riley 26-Inch Medium Expandable Suitcase A reliable, easy-to-handle suitcase is a must, especially if booking more trips is on her agenda this year. Travel editor Kyle Olsen loves the Briggs & Riley Medium Expandable Suitcase for its durability and its expansion-compression technology, which allows you to pack more in the main compartment. Read our review Away The Bigger Carry-On Away is behind some of our favorite luggage, including its Bigger Carry-On, which senior deals editor Rikka Altland loves for its thoughtfully designed interior and lightweight design. The carry-on features a durable hard shell that can withstand rough handling, 360-degree wheels that make it easy to maneuver through the airport and a TSA-approved combination lock. Read our review Bearaby Cotton Knitted Weighted Blanket We wouldn't be surprised if Bearaby's weighted blanket quickly becomes your mom's go-to for naps. A favorite of editorial director Chelsea Stone, the cotton throw features a breathable open-loop knit design and comes in four weights — 10, 15, 20 and 25 pounds. If Mom is looking for a way to destress at home, this is a helpful (and chic) way to help soothe her. Read our review Tempo Move Gym If she prefers to work out at home but looking for more personalized coaching, the Tempo Move Gym is a great way for her to hit her fitness goals. The fitness system includes two dumbbells with colored-coated plates of varying weights, a 5-millimeter workout mat and a compact storage cabinet. With the accompanying app, she'll be able to access Tempo's large library of fitness content and receive real-time feedback on her workouts, thanks to its tracking our review Therabody Theragun Mini 2.0 Whether you slept badly or just wrapped up an intense workout, no one likes dealing with achy muscles, which is why Therabody's Theragun Mini would make such a thoughtful Mother's Day gift. Just ask home and gifts editor Amina Lake Patel, who bought this compact device for her mom one year. The Bluetooth-compatible massage gun comes with three different foam attachments she can switch out depending on her needs. Read our review Oura Ring 4 If you're looking to gift your mom a fitness tracker, the Oura Ring 4 is a chic alternative to other fitness trackers. With a longer battery life and a slimmer design than the Oura Ring 3, it's a fuss-free way for her to keep tabs on her health, especially if she's looking to monitor her sleep patterns. Hydrow Wave Rowing Machine For moms who enjoy low-impact, full-body workouts, we recommend springing for The Hydrow Wave Rowing Machine. Our tester, who's an avid rower, likened the experience of using it to the real deal, which makes it a great option when Mom can't get out to the our review Aura Carver Mat 10-Inch Digital Picture Frame If she's the sentimental type, there's a good chance she'll love the Aura Carver Digital Picture Frame. Griffin gifted her mom one because she thought it would be a sweet way to display the photos from her family group chat. The accompanying app lets you upload pictures and videos from your phone, so you can easily share snapshots from a recent trip or photos of you and Mom. To make setup even more seamless for her, you can preset the Wi-Fi network and preload the frame with images and a personal message. Read our review Courant Catch:3 Wireless Charging Station Crafted from premium Italian leather or Belgian linen, Courant's wireless charging station doubles as a chic catchall, giving Mom the perfect place to stash her keys and any loose change. Apple MacBook Air M4 If her current computer is on its last legs, it's probably time for an upgrade. Enter our current top laptop pick, Apple's MacBook Air M4. According to electronics writer Henry T. Casey, this laptop is easy to tote around, comfortable to use and the one he personally recommends to all his family and friends. Read our review BenQ HT2060 Home Projector A high-quality at-home projector is the perfect way for movie lovers to bring the cinema experience home.

Read our review Goldbelly Chef of the Month Subscription If Mom's on the Resy wait list for every new restaurant hotspot in town, we can't think of a more-appropriate (or tastier!) gift than Goldbelly's Chef of the Month subscription. Every month, she'll receive a curated meal box from award-winning chefs like David Chang and José Andrés that'll bring their coveted cuisine straight to her kitchen. We know you get tired of seeing the same gift ideas year after year, which is why Underscored editors carefully curate each gift guide to include a selection of products tailored to the person, hobby or event you're shopping for (though, if you're seeing some repeat products in our coverage, it probably just means we really love them).
