Carine Roitfeld inspires on many levels but I have the most respect for her as a mother. She prizes family above all else and her two children, Julia and Vladimir Restoin-Roitfeld, are shining examples of her commitment to being a strong maternal figure. How will Carine celebrate her special day? According to style.com, Vladimir says, "I'm going to be here [New York City] and my mom is in London this weekend. I will send her a very, very big bouquet of flowers," most likely her favorite — white roses. Happy Mother's Day, Carine!
