Black Friday Sales || Items We Personally Own, Love, + Recommend

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

Black Friday is a little different for us this year. While we’ve never woken up early to hit the stores, my mom, sister, grandma, and I typically head out to our favorite outdoor mall, Fashion Island, peruse a few stores, and enjoy a nice girl’s lunch together. A tradition that we won’t be partaking in this year. So I’m thinking a good long beach walk and a little online shopping will make the day feel a little special…

All that to say, I have compiled my complete list of Black Friday sales here today. As always, I’m sharing the items that we personally own and love…. and a few items that I plan on purchasing. My approach to Black Friday is this: it’s a great time to find good gifts for others, find a good deal on something that we’ve had our eye on, and an excellent time to fill gaps we might have in our home (I’ve made almost all of our major home purchases during the Black Friday period). If you don’t need anything, feel free to pass this post. If there is something I’ve shared that you’ve had your eye on then hopefully this post can be helpful!

I’ve broken it up into categories (Fashion. Home, Beauty, Children) and then in those categories I broke it up by retailer.

Have a great rest of the weekend everyone!

FASHION

NORDSTROM

This super soft + plush throw, that I included in my Top 15 gift guide, is on sale for under $30… so comfortable, washes well, and a great gift idea.

I think this ribbed oversized cardigan looks so comfortable for the winter seasons (I don’t own this, but I am considering it in black)

LOVE this bouclé pullover from Free People, I have it in cream and grey and it’s so comfortable….

My favorite SPANX faux leather leggings… such a great way to elevate a casual look.

t3 hairdryer… I’ve had this for 4 years and it’s still in excellent condition and dries my hair without damaging it….

SHOPBOP

They are offering 20% off $200 or more. I have so many favorite items from Shopbop…. these The Great joggers (an investment, but they last), ribbed black Varley Half-Zip, AGOLDE Jamie Jeans, Levi’s Black High Waisted Jeans, Free People City Street pullover (I have it in 3 colors), Anine Bing Eagle Sweatshirt, and these snakeskin combat boots just to name a few.

I also purchased this large faux leather puffer tote bag. I haven’t received it yet, but very excited to see how it is!

They also have great gifts for her, him, kids, and varying price categories… all part of the sale.

MADEWELL

Madewell is offering, for their Insiders, 50% off of their best sellers and 30% off your purchase. My favorite items are these trainer sneakers I’ve been wearing non-stop (they’re heavier than what I typically wear, but very comfortable), ribbed henley pullover (I own it in grey), oversized flannel top (so comfortable and versatile), black oversized denim jacket, and this investment worthy cognac leather jacket (I sized up to account for layering).

URBAN OUTFITTERS

UO typically has BOGO… some of my favorites include this chunky ribbed beanie, super soft lounge cardigan, plush fringe cardigan (good gift idea), the boyfriend sweatpants (I own in ivory and charcoal), and this plaid button down (lightweight so a good layering option). We also love this mini waffle maker… we’ve had it for a year and it’s great!

VERISHOP

They’re offering 25% off your purchase of full priced fashion with code (HOLIDAY, minimum $100 spend) and my favorite ivory ribbed joggers and matching ivory hoodie are included as well as the black ribbed crop pants.

ANTHROPOLOGIE

Anthro is offering 30% off your entire purchase. That includes this white shacket (I purchased my regular size and it fits perfectly).

Also included are their home products. So many pieces from our home are from Anthro like these side chairs (super comfortable), these throw pillows, rattan pendant light we have in our living room, and gold rimmed wine glasses.

BLOOMINGDALE’S

Bloomies is offering 25% off select items. My faux leather puffer jacket (one of my favorite cold weather coats I own… so chic), ALLSAINTS black leather jacket is 30% off (I sized up two sizes for the perfect fit), wine coravin (excellent gift option, 20% off!), and I love this faux leather puffer scarf (I don’t own this though).

J. CREW

I believe that J.CREW is having 50% off site-wide… and my all time favorite Coatigan is part of the sale. I wear this year round and include it in all of my capsule wardrobes, so I can’t recommend it more. I highly recommend sizing down one for a good fit.

ALO YOGA

I love ALO YOGA workout clothing, they’re also a small business that is offering 25% off purchases. My go-to pieces include these 7/8 length leggings (own in gravel), SOHO pullover (own in black and gravel), glimpse pullover (own in grey), cropped sweatshirt (super soft, own in black and grey), and this lightweight running windbreaker.

LOFT

LOFT has my all time favorite super soft, plush, Lou + Grey signature soft lounge pullover + joggers…. I own this in 3 colors (black, light grey, and charcoal) and so do my mom and sister. It’s a chic, work from home, run errands, play with the kiddos, hang on the weekends set. It’s included in their sale….

I did purchase this half zip, which is the same material, to go with the light grey joggers… and it is 50% off.

KOOLABURA

They’re having 25% off… and I always think slippers make a great gift option. Harper loves this pair (so plush) and I have this matching pair. I also own this white pair and both are incredibly comfortable. TJ got these slippers from my sister + BIL for Christmas (hopefully he doesn’t read this….).

JENNI KAYNE

She’s having 20% off site wide with code THANKFUL…. her pieces are more of an investment, but very well made. I own, and love, this cocoon cardigan and long sweater coat (I bought it last January).

BIRDIE’S

I got my first pair of their flats last year (I have leopard and the leather taupe) and they’re one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I own. I bought my mom a pair for Christmas last year, and she agrees. The leather pair is currently $45 off, and they rarely have sales. Sizing is TTS.

BEAUTY

ELEMIS

Elemis is having 30% off full size products… my all time favorite cleansing balm is included. If could recommend one facial product this would be the one. I also love their pro-collagen moisturizer.

NECESSAIRE

I have a 10% off code, Shannon10, and I can’t recommend this line more. They have a holiday bundle special ($80 for $125 worth of products) which would make a great holiday gift.

HOME

WEST ELM

West Elm typically offers 30% off and this was when we purchased our sectional couch two years ago. Also included are our slope counter stools and slope dining table chairs (they just arrived on Tuesday and we love them).

LULU + GEORGIA

L+G is offering 25% off with code THANKFUL… our large jute rug that we have in the living room and master bedroom is included. It’s super well made, minimal shedding (if at all, I haven’t noticed any), and isn’t uncomfortable on the feet. We also have this beautiful bench in our master (although, it’s collecting clothes at this point…).

OUR PLACE

Our favorite cooking pan, The Always Pan, is on special for $95. Love this as a gift for someone who loves to cook.

PARACHUTE HOME

20% off here, and we absolutely love our linen duvet cover. It’s the perfect temperature in the winter and summer… we also have their waffle towels. The towels do a great job of drying the body off… I purchased a few more because we love them so much.

POTTERY BARN

Pottery Barn is having. We love these linen curtains in our master bedroom! We also have these kitchen cabinet fixtures.

SERENA + LILY

S+L is having 20% off site wide! Our large rattan basket pendant in our master bedroom is included, as well as our outdoor pendant lights. Our teak stool that the girls use is included as well.

I have this rattan flush mount light in my cart to purchase since I’ve had my eye on it for several months.

CB2

CB2 is having 15-25% off (depending on how much you spend) with code SAVEMORE. Our large, round, entryway mirror (48′) is included and I can’t recommend it enough. Our rattan accent dining chairs and media console are also included.

CHILDREN

GAP + GAP KIDS

I haven’t shopped at GAP for myself in a while, but I stumbled across this upcycled puffer vest (it was 60% off) and purchased one for myself (XS) and TJ (M). We both love it… super comfortable with a nice oversized fit.

For the girls, their matching sherpa + leopard puffer coat are both included in their Black Friday sale. The sherpa coat is a great option is you live in a more mild winter climate!

H&M

They’re having 30% off site wide and so many of my favorites from the girls come from their children’s line. For Camille we love these joggers, basic tees, and tube scarf. For Harper this cute polka dot sweatshirt, long sleeve tops, and these leggings. Such good basics.
