WHITBY FREE PRESS WOMAN '80 SUPPLEMENT, WEDNESDAY MAY 7,1980, PAGE 5 eMOTHER'S DAY GIFT GUIDEcP Luxury Gifts for Mom On Her Day Who is more deserving of luxury than Mother, who gives of herself so unstint- ingly? This Mother's Day, go ail-out with the most lux- urious gift you can find. Here are some suggestions: A satin comforter in the prettiest color to comple- ment her bedroom will make Mom feel pampered indeed. If Mother's an execu- tive, gift her with the fan- ciest letter-opener you can find . . . it'll delight her every day she's at the of- fice. Serve her breakfast in bed on an elegant stand-up tray that she can use for snacking or writing letters on later. Elegant, personalized stationery will make Mother feel like writing to everyone she knows ... include a roll of stamps! A designer version of the classic cover-up for beach or pool will please the stylish Mom. For her checkbook, shop for the most elegant cover you can find ... leather, fabric or silvery, according to her fashion taste. Designer scarves in a profusion of colors and pat- terns will accessorize her wardrobe beautifully. Gift her with the most timely gift of all - a smart digital watch! If Mother's always ad- mired lovely crystal chan- deliers in other homes, gift her with an elegant one for her own dining room. How about a set of handsome, matched lug- gage for Mom's next trip to Europe, including a collap- sible luggage carrier. If Mother enjoys sewing, replace that old sewing ma- chine of hers with the latest model that has all those time-saving, worksaving at- tachments. Speaking of saving time, a microwave oven will let Mom prepare meals in a jif- fy, free her for fun projects. Here's a great gift idea for the mother with a green thumb: a baker's rack, filled from top to bottom with the prettiest plants you can find! Mom enjoys relaxing, too! Gift her with her own recliner so she won't have to be sneaking naps on Dad's. What would we do with- out Mother? Chief cook and bottlewasher, chauffeur, healer of cuts and scratches, Mom is always there to put things right! That's why the best gift we can give her - and ourselves - is one that will help Mom stay healthy. Fortunately, there are many such gifts available, ranging from the most inex- pensive, like a jump rope, to the most luxurious, such as a week at an exclusive "beauty spa." You can encourage Mom to do those daily exercises by presenting her with a slant-board that helps the circulation, or special exer- cise bells designed for wom- en. There are also many ex- ercise machines available for pedaling or rowing right in the privacy of her home. Better yet, gift Mom with her own bicycle to help her keep in trim. Here's another gift idea that will pay health divi- dends for years to come: treat Mom to tennis les- sons, including a tennis rac- quet, of course! Or, a set of golf clubs could be the be- ginning of a new fun hobby for Mom, one that'll pro- vide exercise benefits. If Mother's already dis- covered the joy of jogging, gift her with the latest de- signer warm-up suit and running shoes. A really special gift would be a year's membership in a local health spa. Most spas offer individualized exer- cise programs, in addition to swimming facilities, jacuzzi and sauna. If you want to go all-out, you might treat Mom to a week at one of those expensive beauty spas - that could take care of Mother's Day, birthday, and Christmas all in one! However, staying "in the pink" is not necessarily Nothing says it so beau- tifully as a diamond, spark- ling ing tion robe is just what Mom needs to feel glamorously at home. >on a pendant, as a last- Yuv er htjd reminder of your affec- brings good luck . . . wish 1. her more than enough good- An elegant lounging fortune with a beautiful jade necklace.

Spring '80: New Trends in Fabrics Spring '80 brings the sophisticated, dressy look to women's fashions in contrast to the casual look of the sixties and seventies. Fabrics with body and tight structure are the key direction for this season. Woven fabrics with a crisp look, such as faille crepes, sharkskins, summer tweeds and linen types are some exariples of this group. Piques, cloques, seer- suckers with China silk and European-like looks are also sure to be the new favorites. Other likely news of the season are the metallics which will be popular for both day and evening wear. As for colors, they will be bright and fresh with cobalt blue, bright teal, marigold, magenta and pastels at the top of the list.
