I'll admit I wasn't always a savvy sale shopper, especially around Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Catchy marketing would get the best of me, and I'd find myself buying things just because they were on sale, only to realize later that I didn't really want or need them. After wasting far too much money I developed a strategy to help me resist enticing BF sale emails, and it's worked wonders for my wallet. Now I make lists ahead of Black Friday of items I've been eyeing or things I need to replace in my wardrobe and only allow myself to purchase those pieces if they happen to go on sale. That way I'm targeting items I actually want and can easily resist the temptation to overspend.
This year I plan to primarily shop at Reformation, Nordstrom, and Saks, so I went ahead and created my wish list with selections from those three retailers. I've landed on 29 items that are a combination of closet staples and trendy items—and it's quite well-rounded if I do say so myself. Below is a peak inside my Black Friday shopping for Ref,Replica Store, and Saks.
Reformation
Holiday parties are calling.
This has been on my wish list since September.
The color of the season.
I have this in another color and can say that it's truly one of the softest sweaters I own.
I love a scarf-coat moment.
That color.
Flat boots can be tricky, but these are perfection.
I dream about this bag regularly.
A very good sweater.
Everyone needs a good pair of black trousers.

Nordstrom
Yes!
These look significantly more expensive than they are.
The ultimate layering piece.
The perfect coat does exist.
I love the metal hardware.
So cozy.
Seriously chic trousers.

Saks
If there were ever perfect black boots, it'd be these.
Classic.
Buy now, wear forever.
This scent is absolutely intoxicating.
There's a reason this bag is all over Instagram.
*The* Toteme scarf coat.
I'm very into dark, straight-leg jeans right now.
