The Essential Black Friday Guide

With tons of ways you can shop small!

2016-black-friday-and-cyber-monday-deals

Hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving! I’m popping in to share some of my favorite sales from the weekend. Beyond the obvious players, Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend is the perfect opportunity to find unique gifts from smaller, up and coming businesses, so lots of my fave small shops are in the bottom half of this post. Ok, shop away! I’m definitely stocking up on a couple blue and white pieces from High Street Market (20% off!), and some new flats from Shopbop. Happy shopping, and see you guys back here next week!
