"Take your Mother&amp;#039;s Day gift from good to great with a tearjerking twist that will leave you both feeling warm and fuzzy inside. 1. The Gift: Sunglasses Because, you know, she&amp;#039;s not a regular mom, she&amp;#039;s a cool mom!  The Tearjerker: A matching pair for you. They don&amp;#039;t have to be exactly the same, just similar, maybe the same color or the same designer. It&amp;#039;s a little nerdy, but moms eat that stuff up.  Clockwise from the top: Brown Pearlized Sunglasses, KATE SPADE NEW YORK, $138; Black Cat Eye Sunglasses, TOMMY HILFIGER, $135; Wire Framed Aviators, RAY-BAN, $160; Black Sunglasses, VOGUE EYEWEAR, $99; Silver Wire Framed Aviators, MICHAEL KORS, $65; Brown Sunglasses, ANN TAYLOR, $88 2. The Gift: A good bottle of wine Of course, if your mom&amp;#039;s like mine, a whole lot of cheap wine could work just as well. My mama loves her some Franzia. The Tearjerker: Hang out and drink it with her while asking her questions about herself. Wine + personal stories x your undivided attention = guaranteed tears  3. The Gift: A trip for two If it&amp;#039;s your mom you&amp;#039;re shopping for, make it a trip for the two of you. If it&amp;#039;s your aunt or a friend, maybe you can make the trip something for her and her significant other. If a full-blown trip is too pricey, just go for a night out instead: a concert, dinner, a play, etc. The Tearjerker: Tie up all the loose ends for her. Make it as easy for her as possible. If she&amp;#039;s got young kids, arrange a sitter or offer to babysit yourself. Coordinate with her significant other to organize the whole thing so it&amp;#039;s at a time when she&amp;#039;s free and she doesn&amp;#039;t have to do anything but enjoy herself.  4. The Gift: Reflexology Moms spend way too much time on their feet. Those things are tired. They need some love. But reflexology isn&amp;#039;t just a foot massage. It targets specific pressure points to relax your whole body. The Teakjerker: More reflexology Certain pressure points in the foot can release emotional tensions as well as physical ones, so a good session may actually make her cry with relief. It&amp;#039;s crazy. And addictive. If you haven&amp;#039;t done it yourself, you need to. It&amp;#039;s amazing. Wine-drunk-and-floating-on-a-velvet-cloud amazing.  5. The Gift: A fancy coffee machine (that&amp;#039;s easy to use) She&amp;#039;s tired, but she&amp;#039;s also got stuff to do, and daily trips to Starbucks are tough to squeeze in when you&amp;#039;ve got kids. The Tearjerker: A bunch of those little pods that make the coffee. Tape a note to the inside of the box with all the pods that gives a website where she can reorder when she is ready, and take some time before you give it to her to watch some YouTube videos about exactly how the machine works, so you can show her how to use it yourself instead of just throwing the instructions at her and leaving her to figure it out on her own, &amp;#039;cause she don&amp;#039;t got time for that shit.  From left to right: Silver Coffeemaker, VERISMO, $99; Red Single-Serve Coffeemaker, KEURIG, $110; Black Coffeemaker, NESPRESSO, $149  6. The Gift: A gorgeous picture frame I&amp;#039;m pretty sure there&amp;#039;s a picture frame hormone that gets released during pregnancy. The Tearjerker: An old photo of her with her mother It should be a picture she hasn&amp;#039;t seen in a long time \u2014 maybe her and her mother when she was a little girl. Maybe her grandmother, if they were particularly close. Ask a relative to help you find a good one or dig around in the garage for an afternoon and see what turns up. Just make sure the frame has glass in it because otherwise that old photo you worked so hard to find is going to get ruined by a flood of salty, nostalgic mom-tears.   Clockwise from the top left: Multicolored Chevron Frame, ZINC DOOR, $55; Black Polka Dot Frame, KATE SPADE, $75; Green and White Chevron Frame, OLIVER BONAS, $26; Metallic Frame, ASOS, $12; Light Blue Frame, ANTHROPOLOGIE, $24; Floral Frame, ZARA HOME, $36 7. The Gift: Jewelry After all those years of macaroni necklaces and Play-Doh brooches, you finally owe her something good and you both know it. The Tearjerker: Get it engraved It can be something short and sweet, like initials or the date you were born, but if there&amp;#039;s room, try to make it something personal like a nickname or a short phrase commemorating an event that&amp;#039;s special to the both of you or thanking her for something she does.  Clockwise from top left: Gold Embellished Hinge Bracelet, ALEXIS BITTAR, $195; Rose Gold Watch, GUESS, $105; Gold Hoop Earrings, ARME DE L&amp;#039;AMOUR, $210; Pave Bangle, NADRI AURORA, $90; Spiral Ring, SWAROVSKI, $175; Roman Numeral Rose Gold Ring, TIFFANY &amp;amp;amp; CO., $975; Peach Moonstone Earrings, TACORI, $1,250 8. The Gift: A bag upgrade Look at the bag she uses most often and find her something in a comparable size and color that&amp;#039;s just, well, nicer \u2014 richer leather, sturdier hardware, a cooler lining, etc. The Tearjerker: Turn it into a Mother&amp;#039;s Day stocking Fill it with all her favorite things \u2014 beauty products, a book by her favorite author, a new iPhone cover, whatever \u2014 and wrap each gift individually. She&amp;#039;ll be so touched!  Clockwise from the top left: Red Tote Bag, MICHAEL MICHAEL KORS, $398; Black Quilted Bag, DKNY, $245; Blue Crossbody Bag, COLE HAAN, $198; White Satchel, VINCE CAMUTO, $248; Camel Hobo Bag, COACH, $378 9. The Gift: Fitness gear She barely has time to exercise, let alone buy new workout clothes, but exercise is important and new clothes can be a great motivator. The Tearjerker: Schedule a class the two of you can take together and plan to take her out to brunch after. Anything that lets her spend more time with you is pretty much guaranteed to tug on the ol&amp;#039; heartstrings.   Clockwise from top left: Galaxy S 5 S-View Flip Cover, SAMSUNG, $50; &amp;quot;Madre&amp;quot; T-Shirt, LA NOTTE AT ARITZIA, $35; Pink Earbuds, HAPPYPLUGS, $35; Blue Printed Leggings, AERIE, $25; Hot Pink Sports Bra, NIKE, $30; Black Workout Bag, LORNA JANE, 80; Blue Hoodie, ATHLETA, $89; Purple Sneakers, NEW BALANCE, $110 RELATED ARTICLES: 6 Awesome Ways to Pair Sneakers With Skirts and Dresses How to Make High Heels More Comfortable 6 Super Simple Ways to Become a Color-Mixing Master Follow Charles on Twitter.
