Black Friday Sales Are Here – Hold Your Nerve
It’s that time of year again…discounts galore, emails flooding in tempting us to grab ourselves a bargain. There’s a huge thrill in getting discount on something you adore but try not to get swept up in the madness of it all. If you really love something, then go for it but ask yourself – Would I love it or need it if it was full price? If not – step away, resist the temptation and wait for that piece of clothing or accessory that fills you with joy every time you wear it.
I’m a great believer in keeping a wish list throughout the season – a list of those items you love but may be out of your price-range. These are the items to save for or look out for during Black Friday sales. For me, I keep an eye out for designer jeans, beautiful leather handbags, cashmere and jewellery. Here are just a few of my favourites to give you some inspiration. Enjoy!
The Leather Tote
I have always loved Demellier handbags. Whether you opt for a tote or clutch – the design is exquisite. I also love that every piece is crafted using the finest sustainably sourced materials, and for every piece sold, Demellier funds vaccines and treatments aimed to save the life of a child in need. What’s not to love?
The Cashmere Knit
Cashmere is the ultimate luxury to keep you feeling warm and cozy, without the bulkiness of heavy knitwear. It can be an investment but if you take care of it, it will last for years to come. Uniqlo cashmere ticks all the boxes in terms of price, quality and variety. There are so many colours and styles to choose from and don’t forget to check out the men’s department if you are looking for an oversized style.
The Perfect Denim
I always thought there was no need to buy expensive jeans. That was until I started styling my clients in Paige. I love the cuts (especially for my petite clients) as well as the comfort that Paige offer. Now is the best time to treat yourself with 30% off all styles.
The Ultimate Fitness Wear
As many of you know I train regularly with my great friend and fitness coach Jem Scragg. Up until recently I have worn inexpensive fitness clothing. However, in the summer Killick bought me a pair of Sweaty Betty leggings and I love how they make me look and feel. If you need to update your fitness gear - run don’t walk (see what I did there?) there are some amazing bargains on the site.
The Stunning Accessory
I love a collaboration and Monica Vinader has formed a beautiful one with Hollywood stylist, Kate Young. This dome-shaped ring features a bespoke-cut tiger's eye gemstone. For me it’s the perfect statement ring but if you’re looking for something a little less bold there are some gorgeous, simple stacking rings too.
It’s your choice what you buy this Black Friday, just make sure, whatever it is, you’ll love it beyond sale time.
You're very welcome
