It’s the biggest shopping event of the year – the Black Friday sales. The perfect time to invest for yourself, or to do your festive shopping so you’re ready for the holiday season.
The good news is you don’t have to wait until Good Friday, as there are already so many sales. Just be sure you don’t impulse-buy, but that you’re mindful of what you want to add to your closet, what you want to buy for loved ones, and what you want to wear during the festive season. Let’s take a look at outfits from the Black Friday sales as well as gifts and accessories.
What we would buy in the Black Friday sales
When it comes to Black Friday sales, we love to focus on investments that will stand the test of time and take advantage of the sales to buy festive gifts.
Some of the best sales we’ve spotted are at:
Here’s what we’ll be looking for in the Black Friday sales.
Coats
If there’s one wardrobe hero worth investing in during the Black Friday sales, it’s a coat. Look for classic wool styles – longer versions to wear now, and shorter transitional jackets to wear as winter turns to spring. Also quilted styles to keep you cozy now.
For more coat inspiration, also take a look at the coziest coats to keep you warm this winter.

Cashmere
Look for beautiful, quality materials at a sale price. A cashmere sweater works just as well with your jeans as it does with a satin skirt for a party.

silk
Another beautiful material to search for is ilk. You can pair a silk skirt with one of the sweaters from above, wear a silk shirt with your jeans or pants, and wear a silk blazer over anything.

Shoes and boots
We also love to look out for leather and suede shoes and boots in the sales. A pair of knee high boots, an ankle pair, sneakers and flat shoes will take you through most occasions.

Update your classics
The sales are also the perfect time to take a look at the classic clothes you have in your closet, and decide which ones should be updated. Blazers, bootcut or wide leg jeans, wide leg pants, and draped tops will always be on trend and they’re super versatile. You can dress them up or down so you’ll get lots of wear out of them in the coming years.
