With Mother’s Day coming up this weekend, we're thinking about beloved movie moms, particularly the actresses who time and time again have taken maternal roles and made them memorable. The first person who comes to mind? Meryl Streep. She's been a mom who sings, a mom who psychoanalyzes, and of course, a complicated mom. Here are my five top mom parts from her acting arsenal.
Often, women look to their mothers to see how they will age, and if Goldie Hawn is any indication, Kate Hudson has nothing to worry about. Both stars work hard for their glowing complexions, but they each have differing approaches when it comes to skin care. Kate, a global brand ambassador for Almay, keeps it simple, while her mother loves to experiment. Discover Goldie's nighttime beauty routine, stories of Kate's early years as an aspiring makeup artist, and their plans for Mother's Day in America in just a few weeks, when you keep reading
Mother's Day is just around the corner, so prepare to spoil mum rotten. Whether you decide to shower her with jewellery, bath and body products or a trendy clothing item, above all, it should be something thoughtful. Mum has spent countless hours making sure that you are fine and well, so here are 6 amazing fashion and beauty items that will show her your appreciation. Have fun shopping and let me know which gifts you decide to go with.
With just a few more days until Mother's Day in the UK, I thought I'd round up a few more fashionable and beauty-inspired ideas for you to spoil Mummy with. Last week I put together a bit of a generic gift-guide, but now it's time to funkify the most special woman in your life with these on trend pieces that she wouldn't necessarily buy for herself. Take a peek through this slideshow to see what I've chosen!
For those of you who need a friendly reminder, Mother's Day is next Sunday in the UK. It's time to start thinking about (if you already haven't) a few special treats to spoil your Mum, Grandmum, sister, cousin, Aunt or whomever else with to show them how much you care. I've gathered a few fashion and beauty finds in all different price ranges (sometimes it can be easier to chip in with the rest of the family for one special gift) for you to shop. Have fun — and don't forget the card!
Although Mother's Day was yesterday, with everyone leading super-busy lives, sometimes scheduling doesn't allow to celebrate on the actual day. Or, maybe you just didn't know what to get mum and told her that you have something 'on order.' This certainly wouldn't be the first little white lie you've uttered to her before! Shop some of these fabulous fashion and beauty buys by clicking on each of the photos to let the most special woman in the world know how you feel about her here! What's the best Mother's Day prezzie you've ever gotten for mum?
It's always super exciting for me when beauty and fashion brands come together. I just told you about the awesome python-palette that Bobbi Brown and Tibi created, and now, Alice Temperely and Elemis are joining forces on a safari travel collection for men and women to help benefit Mothers4Children charity. As Mother's Day is approaching on Sunday, this makes for the perfect gift for yourself or someone special. Inside of the faux-leather, animal-print bag for women you'll find a Pro-Collagen Marine Cream, Pro-Radiance Cream Cleanser, Soothing Apricot Toner, Exotic Cream Moisturising Mask, Skin Nourishing Shower Cream, Papaya Enzyme Peel and an Exotic Frangipani Monoi Moisture Melt. That's seven products, all sized-safely for airport travel to keep your skin looking gorgeous!
There are so many great things about this collaboration that it's hard not to be pumped about it. Once the beauty goodies are used up, you can refill it with your favourites and have a fab-looking bag to take on holidays. This is a limited-edition item that is available at John Lewis, timetospa.co.uk and select department stores. The Women’s case sells for £79, and then Men’s costs £50 with £1.50 donation from every sale going to Mothers4Children. Alice Temperley said,
"I am delighted to collaborate with Elemis for such a fantastic cause. Together I hope we will be able to raise substantial funds for Mothers4Children – a truly wonderful organization supporting children charities around the world and working to improve children’s lives in the UK. What we have created together is a classic and can be used for years and years to come."
Sara Cox was full of smiles as she posed for photographs with her new baby girl Renee as she left the Hospital of St John and St Elizabeth in London yesterday. The Radio 1 DJ gave birth on Friday, and tweeted the news that evening, saying: "Hi y'all, we had a beautiful baby girl at 8.30 this morning. She's called Renee. So happy xxx". Sara left hospital with her partner Ben Cyzer just two days after giving birth, and tweeted that she stayed in hospital for the weekend "just cos its so calm&lovely here&the midwives are ace.plus the food is great". Baby Renee joins big brother Isaac, who was born two years ago, and big sister Lola, who is five and is Sara's child with ex-husband Jon Carter. What a lovely Mother's Day: congratulations Sara!
