Mother’s Day is just around the corner and we know you can’t wait to show her the depths of your love and appreciation – but we also know how hard it can be to shop for mums! After all, it’s hard to figure out exactly what says, “I love you” in just the right way to each and every amazing mother out there.
To make your gift-giving decisions a little bit easier, we’ve put together a list of the different types of mums and what you might be able to find for her at Pavilion Bukit Jalil this Mother’s Day.
1. The DIY Mum
The DIY mum is often a crafty queen who loves nothing more than creating something herself. If you passed by a restaurant and wanted to try the food, she would probably say, “Why waste money? I’ll make it for you at home!” Either that, or she’s always doing something new, whether it’s putting together a cabinet, crocheting, or gardening.
For the DIY Mum, instead of picking up the usual accessories as a gift, why not give her a gift that will keep her entertained, inspired, and engaged for hours on end? A fantastic book is the perfect way to show your love and appreciation for all that she does, and to help her unwind and escape into a world of words. If she’s into curated skincare, why not take her to DIY her own skincare based on her skin needs. She’ll definitely love you for this!

2. The Tiger Mum
The Tiger Mum is the ultimate helicopter parent (but don’t let her hear you say that!). She’s always on the lookout for ways to help her kids to be the best that they can be, whether it’s sending you for all those piano, dance and tuition classes when you were younger, or pushing you to follow your career dreams. These mums can be a handful, but everything they do is done with love.
If you have a Tiger Mum, then you’ll need to get her something she can brag about while also helping her relax and unwind. A beautiful handbag is the way to go, followed by a blowout at the hairdresser that will have her looking and feeling her best. Tiger mums are also known for being a fiery force, so take her for some yummy hot wings that’s just as spicy as she is to end the day. She’s bound to call all her friends the next day to tell them what you did for her on Mother’s Day!

3. The Perfectionist Mum
The Perfectionist Mum is all about keeping things neat, tidy, and organised. She’s always busy cleaning and making sure everything is in its place and never drops the ball juggling various tasks. You simply don’t know how she does it all, and seemingly with such ease!
With the Perfectionist Mum, it’s time to let her sit back while she gets a day to relax for a change. Take her out for a pampering and makeover session! She’s going to love the fact that you notice all the work she does on a daily basis. Additionally, if you want to make her work at home a little easier, then why not pick up the latest vacuum cleaner or a cabinet for her organisation. You could even get her an entire cleaning kit to make her day!

4. The Bestie Mum
The Bestie Mum always knows what’s up. She knows everything that’s going on not just in your life, but all your friends’ lives, too. Chances are, you’ve probably come home a couple of times and found your friends at your house telling her about their latest problems! She’s also always having people over just because of how lovable and relatable she is.
The Bestie Mum is always up for a good time and loves to hang out with her kids. If that’s your mum, then you could take her out for a fun day out. Go for a massage together, watch a movie, bond over a good hotpot dinner and sing your lungs out together at a karaoke session. Whatever you choose to do, just the fact that you’re doing it together will be more than enough for her.

5. The Fashionista Mum
The Fashionista Mum is always dressed to impress. She’s up to date with the latest fashion trends and loves to look her best. She also probably allowed and supported you in trying out all the latest fashion trends while you were still in school.
If you have a Fashionista Mum, why not take her shopping so she can update her wardrobe (that you probably still raid on occasion). You could even make it a fun outing by picking out outfits for each other or challenging each other to a ‘who wore it better’ contest with matching #OOTDs.

The Zen Mum is all about self-improvement, inner peace and tranquillity. She’s probably the type to do tai chi at the park in the mornings or attend yoga classes, and she’s always reminding you to ground yourself and giving you little trinkets that will complement your energy.
If this sounds like your mum, then you can pick up some scented candles and aromatherapy oils for her. You can even get her a beautiful crystal bracelet that can help elevate her energy this Mother’s Day.
