Mother's Day gift for 65 year old Mum

[kylz]

Hi all,
My mum has been eyeing off my LV's since I started collecting 2 years ago but doesn't have any bags or SLG's. I want to buy her a first piece for Mother's Day but can't afford a bag. What are your recommendations? I was thinking a Mini Pochette in Mono? MTIA [emoji4]

Mini pochette is an awesome gift or a cosmetic case?

 

[luvspurses]

mini pochette or full size pochette if that would not stretch the budget too much. both are great. the advantage to the full size is that you can add a cross body strap and fit a cell phone. how nice that you want to do this for your mum : )

The mini pochette is a great piece because it can be used as a cosmetic pouch, wristlet, mini bag and more

Tahitiennes mini pochette or toiletry would make a charming gift (and a collectible) if you could find one in time.

Mini Pochette or the cles! or a card holder!

How sweet of you! You can't beat the mini pochette or the toiletry pouch (19 or 26) practicality.

What a wonderful daughter you are. I am 64 myself and find the pochette accessoire, TP19, card holder, cles and pocket organizer extremely useful. Whatever you decide, your mom will love it.

If she lives close to you and you're within a reasonable distance of a LV, then how about make it a day with her? Start with something like a brunch - mums like brunches - and take her to the store where she, after getting a budget ceiling, can peruse and examine the things that catch her eye. If you're not close to a store then sit down with her if you can and go over the LV website together.

Thanks for all your responses! Pickle123, do you prefer Mono, DE or DA?

 

[Pickle123]

I like mono a lot but only in small doses, so all my slg's are in mono and my 1 bag is in DE. Can you tell which print your Mom admires most about your collection?

A wallet would be nice as she can use it daily.

I think a mini pochette in Mono would be a GREAT gift for your mom. I have one and LOVE it.

She seems to like the Mono print and told me she thought my Rosalie coin purse was beautiful! I wish I could afford to buy her a Capucines [emoji20] she loves it!

Rosalie coin purse would be so much nicer and more thoughtful than a pochette, which just seems rather plain in comparison, IMHO. I do think it's better to sit down with her and look at the website together. She's at that age where getting something she will really enjoy beats getting a surprise. My mom is turning 60 next month and I wish I could afford anything LV for her.
