Mother’s Day is right around the corner. A day to celebrate your mother figure(s) is a special, memorable day. Relationships with moms can be…complicated, but the love you have for her is probably immense. There’s the mom who always worries, the mom who is your rock, and the mom who’s like your best friend. Each of these archetypes who live a minimalist lifestyle is so interesting to see. The put-together button-down and denim look with a slight red lip, the monochrome dress and cardigan combo, the classic sleek trousers, and crisp white shirt; I love these types of looks on moms.

You can spot a cool minimalist mom from a mile away; she doesn’t need much to show that she’s got style. It might be hard to shop for a woman like that. That’s why we looked around for pieces that will last your mom a long time and will complement the wardrobe your mom has already built for herself.

Take a look below at all the minimal fashion pieces your minimalist mom will love this Mother’s Day below.
