Each of our staff is offering a different perspective on what makes a meaningful Mother’s Day gift.
Now Cathy, from our Avalon store and mum to Archie and Annabelle, shares her edit, leaning a little more playful. A touch of polish, a hint of contrast, and just enough detail to make something feel special.
“I’m always looking for something that feels effortless, but still has a point of view.”

Mum to Archie and Annabelle
Cathy’s style balances simplicity with statement. Clean lines, beautiful materials, and pieces that feel considered but never overworked. There’s an ease to the way she puts things together. Nothing too fussy, always just right.
Cathy's Wish List: 5 Gifts She’s Eyeing
1. The Flatiron Label Ruched Clutch in White

Unexpected but refined, this clutch feels like a statement without trying too hard. The kind of piece that instantly sharpens a look. “I wouldn’t ordinarily go for a white bag, but I can’t go past this one. The shallow elongated shape, the ruched top, the soft leather. Chic as!”
2. Sener Besim Spear Gem Thread Earrings

Fine, light, and quietly striking, these earrings bring just enough detail to catch the light without overpowering. “They’re just so delicate and elegant, and I love the transparent sapphire.”
3. Vanessa Megan Liliquoi Candle

Softly fragrant and beautifully balanced, this candle fills a room without overwhelming it. “Vanessa Megan’s fragrance blends are like nothing I’ve come across before, and her price points are great. Liliquoi is my favourite.” A small luxury that feels instantly uplifting.
4. All Day Clay Fluted Speckle Bowl with Feet (Only In-Store)

“This handmade bowl is made so pretty with its undulating curves, and I love the mustard speckles.” Playful but grounded, this piece brings movement and warmth to a table or shelf. Best discovered in person.
Shop In-Store
5. Akyn Rocia Washed Black Trench Coat

Relaxed yet elevated, this trench is all about ease. Throw it on and everything feels more considered. “This long luxe coat is my go-to when I want to be comfy but still feel cool. The fabric is next level.”
