The Black Friday Sales || Items I Personally Own + Recommend

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We spent it watching football (Bears vs. Lions…. Bears fans over here), spending time with family, and then capping it off with our favorite holiday tradition, watching “Christmas Vacation.” We’ll be decorating our house for Christmas tomorrow, and I can’t wait…

Sharing my regular Black Friday post where I round up all the items I own and would recommend. As always, if you’ve had your eye on something I’ve shared in the past, or in the market for a specific item, I hope this helps. If you’re not, then feel free to pass this post!

Have a wonderful rest of the weekend and see you Monday!

NORDSTROM

I’ve had these block heel, chestnut booties, since last year and they look great with straight leg denim or dress. I recommend sizing up a 1/2 size. They’re 40% off…
I put these dainty, diamond, gold hoop earrings on my wishlist this year (I saw them in store and they were small and so beautiful). 
I purchased this lightweight plaid turtleneck for our trip and loved it so much….
The Adidas ultra boost sneakers that I love are marked down as well… if you’re looking for a great pair of running shoes I can’t recommend these more… incredibly comfortable. I included the men’s pair in my “men’s gift guide” this season and they’re 30% off….
I purchased this tie dye workout top last season and it’s currently marked down (I have it in the black/grey color)… and these high waisted, soft pocket leggings are some comfortable for lounging…
This lightweight shorts pajama set was a purchase from the summer and I still wear them on warmer fall days….
And the Spanx leggings are on sale as well… I went up a size in these and they fit perfectly….

SHOPBOP

Shopbop is having 15-50% off site wide… maybe the best sale of the year. So many of my go-to items that I’ve had for years are included…. 
AGOLDE jeans are on sale, and my 3 go-to pairs include the 90’s Loose Fit (size down 2 sizes), 90’s Pinch Waist Jeans (size down 1), and the Jamie Straight Leg jean (I went up a size with these). The ribbed scoop neck long sleeve top that I’ve included in several capsules is also on sale… 
The SAM Sherpa Coat I have is 25% off…. not the white color, but the camel is just as pretty.
These ribbed high waisted leggings and sports bra are one of my go-to work out sets… very stretchy and incredibly comfortable and I love the ribbed detailing… 
I bought this sherpa bucket hat for our cold weather trips and it’s so soft… reversible as well… and it’s on sale + a percentage off… 
I love the socks from Falke, and the fair isle pair I purchased for our recent trip are 15% off… I also own this black pair… 
Z Supply items are part of the sale, including this half zip sweatshirt and these work from home joggers (super soft)…. 
This is one of my favorite half zip pullovers (ribbed with a wide collar), as well as this oversized half zip (I have it in a lighter grey shade and it’s so comfortable)….
These lightweight tubular earrings are so simple….
I’ve had these sunglasses for 5 years and I love them…. They’re on sale for under $50….
I also included my go-to Bala ankle weights in my gift guides this year and they’re 25% off…
And if you’re in the market for sandals, the Freedom Moses two banded sandals are also included… I have the sand and snakeskin pairs… just toss on socks for the winter! 

J. CREW

J. Crew is having 40% off your purchase. The items I own and recommend include:
These sherpa lined rain boots… I wore them throughout Park City and they were very warm (I’m a 6.5 and purchased a 7)
This black puffer coat… I sized down… it’s incredible warm and insulated 
This cashmere beanie, gloves (work on tech devices while wearing), and these cashmere socks are all great cold weather accessories 
This little sherpa tote bag is fun for a night out 
I have this cable half zip and it’s very soft and comfortable… it comes in a lot of great colors as well 
And I always recommend the Juliette Camel Coatigan or the Ella longer blush coatigan (size down in both) 
This oversized half zip and sweatpants combo is a chic loungewear set… they do run very oversized so I recommend going down 2 sizes in the sweatpants if possible (one size in the half zip) 

MADEWELL

Madewell is having 30% off with code OHJOY… so many items I wear regularly are included… 

This chunky herringbone necklace is under $40 and I included it in my gift guides… great for friends, sister in laws, etc… 
The trainer sneakers I’ve had since last season… I find them to be super comfortable
I included this herringbone open coat in my capsule for November… it’s a great way to elevate any basic outfit… 
If you’re looking for a vintage pair of black jeans, then this straight leg option is great. I sized down (and purchased the petite length) and they fit perfectly. No distressing, high waisted fit. 
This grey shirt jacket is super warm and love that’s it’s lined (I sized down)… if you’re looking for something heavier, this quilted coat is pretty soft and amazing (warm too).
And this ribbed half zip is perfect for layering on a cool day….
And if you’re looking for a black zip top tote bag, the transport tote is a wonderful option. It’s spacious and very well made 

BLOOMINGDALE’S

Bloomingdales is having 25% off their site… 

This faux fur jacket feels super lux and kept me very warm in Park City…. 
The leather jacket I’ve had for 2.5 years is also included (but 30% off), I highly recommend going up 2 sizes as it runs small
And these ivory lace up lug boots are super chic (I went up one size and re-laced them for a looser fit and they were very comfortable after that)… TJ’s Sorel snow boots are also included…
The 90’s pinch waist AGOLDE jeans in black (I sized down in these, they will stretch) 
This large cashmere wrap is included… a wonderful gift option… it really elevates any basic outfit… and these cashmere gloves would also make a great gift…
I always recommend the Coravin wine preservation system as a gift option during the holidays… it’s currently $111…..

OUR PLACE

Our Place is currently having a special on the always pan and the perfect pot… both for ___. You could separate them out and give each one separately as a gift… 

EVERLANE

My all time favorite track joggers are on sale… they’re under $40 and I did an entire post on them here… I do recommend sizing down if you don’t want them as baggy, but they do shrink, so if you’re between sizes that’s something to keep in mind…. AND the matching half zip is 50% off… making the set around $70 (it’s a great one!).

This lightweight henley sweater is also on sale… it’s so soft and I have the burnt sugar color, which is more of a soft blush…

ALO YOGA

Alo Yoga is having 20% off (which usually only happens this time of year)…
The split hem leggings I wear all the time are included (I am 5’2” and wear the 7/8th length)
These airlift high waisted leggings (in gravel) are one of my all time favorite leggings. I love the fit and feel 
I also have the SOHO pullover in gravel… they look great together…
This bubble crop tee is incredibly soft and I love wearing it with high waisted leggings and sweatpants… 
And I just purchased this sherpa tote

ABERCROMBIE

I purchased this oversized white puffer vest from Abercrombie when it was on sale two weeks ago and it’s now 30% off… I bought a size down and it’s oversized but not huge… if you want it to have that large, oversized look, purchase your regular size. 

BANANA REPUBLIC

Banana Republic is having 40% off (discount in bag)….

I purchased these white fleece joggers and they are amazingly warm and comfortable (I went down a size)… they have a zipper pocket which is great…
And this oversized ribbed cashmere sweater is beautiful… I can’t wait to wear it with jeans and some booties… and this sweater hoodie pairs nicely with the joggers.  

And TJ loves these joggers, henley, and sweatshirt

I love these AGOLDE 90’s pinch waist jeans (no distressing)
This oversized ribbed tunic turtleneck (it’s so soft and comfortable) 
This beautiful ombré sweater
And if you’re looking for a minimal top for the holiday seasons, this bodysuit from Free People is beautiful… it has a deeper v but you can pin it (with your own pin) to whatever plunge you feel comfortable with (I’ve had it for 2 years and it drapes nicely) 

JENNI KAYNE

Jenni Kayne is more of a investment shop, but she is having 25% off  sitewide and while I don’t think everything on the site is worth the price I do absolutely love 
These oversized ribbed cocoon cardigan (I have it in oatmeal and grey) 
And these sherpa sandals and mules (I do like the Marc Fisher mules better… but these are great I just purchased them in the wrong color… I recommend the taupe option) 

LOU + GREY

One of my favorite lounge sets, that I’ve been wearing for 3 years, the Signature Soft collection is 50% off. Sizing is always different from year to year, but in the past I have sized down (my mom recently purchased a pair and said they seem to be running smaller and she ended up getting her regular size). They’re so soft and warm!
