How to Shop the Year’s Biggest Sales
It’s that time of the year again! Black Friday deals have already started hitting your inbox, and you’re probably wondering how you can get all your Christmas shopping done while snagging a few things for yourself. Black Friday deals and promotions can be overwhelming, and we would hate for you to get caught up in all the noise and miss out on what you really want. Not to worry, we have the guide to ensure you get everything you need and nothing you don’t!
Gifts for Them
When picking out gifts for the fashion connoisseur on your list, accessories are the way to go. Size isn’t a factor to work around, and classic pieces can be integrated into anyone’s wardrobe, no matter their style.
Belts are a great gift that is neither gender nor style specific, so they can work for multiple people on your Christmas list. Unless you know the recipient very well, stick to something neutral and classic for seamless wardrobe integration.
Wallets are another good gift idea because of how much they’re used. This means that even if your gift recipient has a wallet, it’s going to wear out eventually.
Jewelry is where you can get a little more personal. Try to mimic the styles you’ve already seen them wear. Whether that’s gold or silver, minimalist or maximalist, stick to what you know they’ll like.
Gifts for You
Who says Christmas shopping is all work, no play? Black Friday is a great time to save big on closet essentials you’ll be reaching for all year long. As far as investments go, that’s a pretty safe bet.
Boots are always in season and probably one of the most versatile types of footwear in your wardrobe. Black Friday shopping is a great time to keep your eyes peeled for any staple silhouettes your closet is missing or splurge on that statement shoe for your holiday outfits.
Bags are one of the most practical accessories, yet still so expressive of one’s personal style. Snag a great deal on a quality leather piece in a timeless silhouette. This will get you the most bang for your buck because it will style well across outfits and occasions.
Blazers aren’t just for the office anymore. If you don’t already have a comfortable, slouchy blazer in your fall wardrobe, get one now! This is a huge trend that isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
Tips for Success
The most important thing is to make a plan. Spend a few minutes going over your Christmas list and the gaps in your own closet, and make a list of the most valuable things you’re looking for. This way you’re ready with a mission and unlikely to get distracted by doorbusters or discounts on items you don’t really need.
Start your shopping early. It may be tempting to wait until Black Friday itself in hopes of getting the best deals, but waiting too long may mean your gifts don’t arrive in time for Christmas! This is especially true this year with worldwide supply shortages.
Shop online and avoid the crowds. Things are still iffy out there, so save yourself the stress and snag those Black Friday deals from the comfort of your own home.
There you have it, the fail-proof guide to mastering Black Friday shopping. Cross off your list and check it twice because now you can kick back and sip eggnog until Christmas is here… or you can shop our boot sale and snag a few essentials for yourself.
