This year, tell mom how much she means to you with Silpada Charm™ - the newest addition to Silpada Designs' sterling silver jewelry collection. Silpada Charm - spotted on celebrities and in top fashion magazines - provides a stylish and affordable way to pamper mom while also telling a personal and meaningful story.

Former Bachelorette and busy mom Trista Sutter knows it's the little things in life that matter most. She's teaming up with Silpada to celebrate moms every day, not just on Mother's Day. Sutter's Silpada Charm bracelet - which includes the "M" and "B" initial charms for her two children, Max and Blakesley; the Family Tree charm; the October charm (her birthstone) and the Faith & Love charm - remind her how special it is to be a mom.

"I love sentimental items, so my Silpada Charm bracelet is the perfect accessory for my everyday look and makes me feel beautiful," Sutter said. "Silpada jewelry ranges from casually sentimental to brilliantly formal. It's a perfect gift for yourself or for someone else, especially on Mother's Day."

Sutter offers the following tips on how moms can celebrate themselves every day:

• Feel Beautiful: Moms are often too busy running the carpool, cooking dinner and getting everyone to bed to worry about themselves - let alone how they look. Whether your everyday couture is a business suit or yoga pants, do something that makes you look and feel your best. Keep a few essentials on hand to help you feel beautiful, whether it's a pair of "carpool" earrings or lip gloss at an early-morning soccer practice.
• Schedule "Me" Time: Don't feel guilty about scheduling time for you, no matter if it's a fun night out with your girlfriends or putting on a quick coat of nail polish while the kids are napping. Doing something for yourself every day will allow you to shine brighter and spread happiness.
• Reignite Your Passion: It's important to reconnect with yourself and engage in something you love. Sutter loves to bake but at times it can be a chore because of her busy schedule. When she gets a chance, Sutter bakes recipes with sentimental memories for family and friends to enjoy.
