I always feel a little strange writing up this blog post every year. My husband is so good at buying me gifts (usually encouraged by our girls!) but then I remember that sometimes even the best of us need a little help and pointer in the right direction. Here are a few of my top gifts for her birthday this year.

“Happiness is a hot drink on a cold day.”

Sometimes a hot drink is all you need to warm up, wake up and cheer up.

Born in colder months like me? The lady in your life is likely to love a hot drink for her birthday! This doesn't have to be anything special. You could purchase a gift voucher for her favourite coffee shop, take her out on a coffee date or even put together a hamper of drinks and snacks. For mums like me though, a great gift is time. Time to enjoy the hot drink without a million things needing doing or a child interrupting.

"You can't buy happiness, but you can buy books and that's kind of the same thing." 

Quick reads are the perfect gift for mums and women on the go

Life flies by so quickly, especially for women who are mums; or those who work long hours. Finding time to read can be difficult... trust me, I used to be a book worm but since having the girls my shelf is filled with books that haven't been touched yet. Having books that are short, quick reads like Novella Nostalgia series* (I have Gloriana† and Lunch with Harry†) is the perfect way to get some reading into your busy schedule. Plus they are a bargain if you're looking for gifts for her. They are based on old-school films and are easy, quick reads and I love them! 

 "If you look good, you feel good. If you feel good, you do good."

Get a gift that gives her a perfect summer glow all year round

I was born in January, and as much as I love the winter months (because you all know how much I adore Christmas!) I, like some people, wish it was easier to have that perfect summer glow for my birthday nights out; without needing an expensive trip to the tanning salon. With Tan Cream* you can do just that. This odourless cream is fab not only for the gradual bronzing it offers, but it offers sun protection  (SPF50 to be exact!) and has anti-aging properties too.

Treat her to some pretty new clothes she'll love

Remember my review of Disney's amazing adult clothing range? I can't think of any better gifts than clothing like this! Not only is it useful, but for a woman like me who is Disney obsessed; it's the perfect birthday gift! If the lady in your life isn't a massive fan of Disney like me, why not look at other things she does love. Whether it's a pretty dress, bold colours, floral patterns and more there are plenty of options when it comes to picking out clothes for her birthday.

A gift for her in the form of a pamper session at home

Self care is so important. Whilst a trip to the spa would be an amazing gift, sometimes it's not the right choice for the gift recipient and it's also not within everyone's gifting budget. Instead, why not choose a gift like Vie Natural's Moroccan Hammam*? Available on Amazon† this gift pack comes with clay you can use for your hair, body and face; argan oil which is an amazing natural oil for your hair; and also black soap which is officially one of my favourite products. It feels fabulous and smells lush.

​"Sometimes you have to take a break from the grind, clear your mind, and enjoy some "me" time."

A relaxing break is ideal for anyone, especially mums!

Did you see my recent reviews of my spa day with my best friend or romantic night away with John? I may have reviewed them as ideal gifts for Mother's Day but that doesn't stop them being perfect birthday gifts for her too! Everyone needs a break, whether it's from the daily grind of work; or from 24/7 calls of “muuuummmmy” while raising children at home.

Whether you choose a Red Letter Days voucher* or a Buyagift voucher* there are plenty of choices available. Choose from theatre trips, meals out and nights away to treat the lady in your life for her birthday. You're sure to find the perfect gift for her this year, no matter what she's in to!

A day out with the kids

As much as most mums would love a break for their birthday, sometimes it's just as good to spend some quality time with your children! I feel this especially the case for me, with Squidgy in school Monday to Friday. I miss her, and love any opportunity to get out and enjoy some quality time with her and Pickle.

It may be short and sweet, but I hope that you have a few great ideas now for gifts for her. Whenever you're celebrating your mum, sister or partner's birthday this year; with these gift ideas you're sure to find something they'll love.
