Shop Till You Drop… Your Guide To The Best of Black Friday

Girls Girls Girls - Vicki Archer


We girls love to shop… in the main part… and this coming weekend is the weekend to shop till you drop… for yourself and for others.

It’s sales galore across the board.


I have made a roundup of the best reductions… done the legwork… and found those additions to the wardrobe that are always welcome… Site wide sales are the best… with genuine savings on pieces that we already know we want.


Keep in mind a few golden rules when shopping the sales.

Would I buy it at full price? Do I need it? Is it the right size and does it fit well? Does it suit? Buying because the price is right should be the final reason on your checklist.



J.Crew…  still one of my favourite online shopping experiences… is offering 30% off everything with the code HOLIDAY

My casual sweaters are looking tired and I have found some really cute ones here.

 This season it’s all about soft, the snug, the cosy and the embellished… sparkles and jewels… jazzing up the straightforward…

I tried all these sweaters in J.Crew London… (so happy they are here) and they fit well and look fab…

 

 

 

 

The other brilliant style that J.Crew does so well is the pattern on pattern tuxedo/lounge look… worn with fancy loafers or party stilettos… this women’s version of male suiting is the best ‘when in doubt’ kind of outfit…

Chic and flattering… wearing the masculine with feminine flair is a big crush of mine…

 

 

 

Shopbop… is the number one and the best priced for stylish jeans, boots and bags….

They are discounting between 15% and 25% off everything with the code BIGEVENT13

Here is what’s in my shopping basket… Up until now, I have been very indecisive about biker boots… okay… I’m behind the times… but I’ve decided I would love some… for the weekends… kicking around… and a couple of pairs of new skinnies to reinvigorate the wardrobe…

I’ve included a couple more crossover bags, totes and my best new sunglasses…

 

 

Have a wonderful weekend… and if you need to chat about what’s what, leave me a comment and I’m happy to help…

Happy Shopping… xv
