Know a mom who likes to travel? We’ve got a gift for that.

With Mother's Day just around the corner, you might be scrambling to find the perfect gift for the special woman in your life. Flowers and chocolates are nice tokens of affection, but why not up your game this year with some of these travel-inspired gifts?

SUNCATCHER CARRYALL AND BEACH TOTES

The go-anywhere totes by Sidney Byron are light multifunctional travel bags mom can take from home to airport to hotel to beach. Made from natural jute and cotton, the totes feature a drawstring closure and zippered interior pockets to keep everything secure. A roomy velvet or terrycloth interior (depending on model) will hold all daily essentials; exterior strapping can secure a brimmed hat. The trolley sleeve slides easily over a suitcase handle for racing from check-in to a flight. A matching zippered take-along pouch, sold separately or as part of a set, holds keys, ID, wallet, and smaller items. Tote $115; pouch $40; set $140. https://sidneybyron.com/collections/natural-jute-bags/products/copy-of-suncatcher-beach-tote-herringbone
