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.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
