So Long, Impulse Buys—I’m Building My Forever Wardrobe This Black Friday
Sponsor Content Created With Whistles
I'll be honest: I love a discount. Any chance to save a few pounds and my attention is truly piqued. But this also means I've fallen one too many times into the classic trap of buying something simply because it's a "good deal", only to end in a pile of returns or styles that sit in my wardrobe unworn. With Black Friday just next week and our inboxes filling up with discounts and deals aplenty, it can feel overwhelming to know where to look and what's actually worth buying. Well, that's where I come in.
As a seasoned shopper, I've perfected scanning the sales to ensure that I (and you) will show off our new wares whilst proudly declaring, "I got it for 20% off!" The key to sales shopping is focusing on styles that will truly serve your wardrobe and suit your personal style. If a fluoro yellow scarf isn't your typical vibe, then no matter the discount, it will never earn its keep. Instead, I've learnt to hone in on the wardrobe staples that will bolster my daily outfit builds for years to come. Naturally, this Black Friday season, I've turned to my already full-to-the-brim wish list at Whistles.
Throughout the year, I find myself repeatedly turning to Whistles' high-quality pieces. From workwear favourites to everyday essentials, Whistles always hits the mark with an expensive-looking edge. And for Black Friday, I'm pleased to share that you can now snap up your wardrobe building blocks for 20% off. Below, I've curated a sleek capsule wardrobe comprised entirely of Whistles sales items that will ensure you avoid that "I have nothing to wear" feeling. Featuring some of the brand's most beloved pieces, from classic jeans to that leather jacket (if you know, you know), each item has a timeless edge, ensuring a tiny cost-per-wear regardless of the discount. From day to night and office to cocktails, these styles can be swapped in and out to create chic looks for whatever your calendar holds. Plus, there are a few party pieces for those special occasions throughout the year.
Keep scrolling to explore the timeless Whistles pieces I'm eyeing up this Black Friday.
SHOP MY WHISTLES BLACK FRIDAY EDIT:
Yes, the insta-famous leather jacket that many of our editors own is currently 20% off.
Take your classic jeans from day to night with this elegant top. I love the bandeay neckline.
From the cut to the contrast seams, this pair went straight into my basket.
Keep your essentials close to hand with this sleek crossbody, featuring clever compartments and an adjustable strap.
From popping to the shops to long winter walks, I'm planning on getting plenty of wear out of this water-resistant coat.
Go bold with a double-denim look or refine the vibe with tailored trousers.
With a cosy knit in winter or a simple tank come summer, I get so much wear out of my pleated miniskirt.
Birthdays, parties and dinners—ready your wardrobe for all occasions with this elegant black dress.
The herringbone adds a contrasting texture that works just as well with a monochromatic outfit as it does with jeans and a simple tee.
Black Friday is a great time to snap up luxury pieces, like this sumptuous cashmere roll neck.
