You know those rare shopping moments when, instead of perusing the store for hours, you simply ask the shopkeeper for a recommendation and wind up leaving with the ideal gift (perhaps even elegantly wrapped) after about ten minutes?
This is that, but for online shopping: We asked five local store owners and managers to pick, out of all the items in their shop, which ones they'd recommend giving for Mother's Day. Here are the results.

"Every mom needs hard working pieces in their wardrobe that are comfortable and durable," says Glasswing owner Alisa Furoyama. This pair is an instant classic, with a straight leg, high waist, and snug Japanese denim that breaks in with wear. Per Furoyama, "this is the updated Mom Jean." How fitting.
