As we hope you already know, Mother’s Day 2017 is this Sunday, May 14. Like we do every year, we’re taking some time every day during this week to celebrate the special bond that can form between mothers and daughters over fashion. And for us, obviously, that means bags.
Today, we’re kicking things off with some help on making sure your mom, stepmom, grandma, aunt or any other mom you’re shopping for gets exactly the bag she’d want, if that’s on your gift list this year. Below, check out over two dozen picks across a variety of price levels and personal styles, all perfect for a mom of one sort of another.
