Every year, I say I’m not shopping Black Friday much less posting about it. And every year I can’t stay away.
As a family, we do less and less gifts for each other year after year, so this week, I will be just shopping for my nieces and nephews. But I’ve have some fun shopping for yours truly this last weekend. Here is what I honestly bought/ have purchased in the past and would 10/10 recommend.
- Frontgate: new towels for our primary bathroom. The kids still currently shower and brush teeth in our bathroom {love all the silly and quality time together}, so I just got another set of these bath sheets that feel like you are at a luxury hotel. Also, so much great holiday decor on sale.
- Ring Concierge: this year, I got a gift for an upcoming big birthday of a friend. But most of my day to day items are from here, including the pinky ring I wear every single day, the tennis bracelet that was given to me from my husband for our 10th year anniversary, this mini tennis bracelet, this diamond wrap ring and the tennis necklace my husband got me for my 40th. {this might be a last minute purchase today for me in my stocking, from me… trying to decide between yellow and white gold.}
- Serena & Lily: of course use this as a reason to get any furniture you’ve been eyeing. But I tend to tell people to get their sheets. They are great quality, feel luxurious and seem a little over budget not on sale.
- J.Crew: shop anything you need, but if this isn’t in budget at the moment, they constantly have other random sales. I did get this jacket for me for under $90 and I’m very excited about it. 0% chance of it making it under the tree. Also a great retailer for easy gifts for brothers in law, aunts, mother’s in laws or coworkers as their gift guide tends to cover all bases. omg this is too cute and festive and $63.
- Shopbop: I didn’t take advantage of their recent fall sale, so I used Black Friday to get some cute items, including these studded Mary Janes that I have had my eye on for about a year.
- Hill House Home: great great items for any lady on your list. 30% off a classic dress that I constantly wear and constantly get compliments on. Wore this for Thanksgiving and got stopped in my tracks at Thanksgiving dinner from a fellow mom asking for outfit details. From kids pjs, to mini stuffed animals, hair bows and headbands and the perfect party dress that seriously work for the grocery store to parties. I got this today for me, again….
- Abercrombie: always great for fall items and great for any tweens on your list. And don’t sleep on the men’s section for any ladies on your list, including you. Been loving all their men’s jackets lately.
