If your mother is anything like mine, and only wants practical gifts, you should make your way to Club Monaco. They always have a great selection of scarves–above are three in neutrals for summer (Left to right: Edie Sparkle Scarf, $79; Louisa Lurex Scarf, $59; Cheryl Lurex Scarf, $59). With mom in town for three weeks, I might have to slip it a few days here and there.
