25 Things About Me
So, I realized I never did an “About Me” post, and since there’s a bunch of new faces around here…. I thought what better time than now. I always enjoy reading everyone’s about me post, so hopefully you’ll enjoy reading mine. After looking over the list of things I jotted down, I feel like I’m a pretty boring person compared to others.Read More
Cheeseboard + Moscow Mules
How in the world are we almost done with 2017? I feel like I blinked and this year just flew by!
If you’re like us, when NYE comes around, we’re too exhausted to go out and celebrate. We’re lame, I know, but we honestly prefer to stay in and make appetizers + drinks… plus comfy clothes are my jam!Read More
Last minute Christmas shopping + Green Monday Sales
Happy Monday!
Who isn’t done Christmas shopping? Me, Me, Me! I’m almost done, but still have some shopping left to do.

How I do Black Friday + Black Friday Deals!
Happy Tuesday! With Black Friday, literally days away… I thought I would let you know how I plan out my “wish list” for the big day and what statement pieces I’ve bought, years prior.
I’m not one to buy something because it’s on sale. I lean more towards picking out things I’ve wanted for a while, but didn’t want to pay full price for it. For instance, my XL gold monogram necklace (I got the 2.75″ one). If you’ve clicked the link to see how much it cost, you might have laughed and exited out of the page. I know I did the first time I saw it. But after swooning over it for months, I decided to take the plunge and purchased it last year during a Black Friday sale! I saved around $100, too! Here are some other monogrammed necklaces that are a bit cheaper + some jewelry pieces I wouldn’t mind having…
TORY BURCH. This is one of my go to websites on Black Friday. This year, she’s offering 30% off $250 including sale items! Say whattttt? Totally worth the wait!! Here are some things that I have my eye on..
My husbands Black Friday is a little different from mine. He’s pretty handy when it comes to working on the house, so he likes to go for the tools + electronics. Typical guy, right? But tools are expensive and needed in our house, so why not buy them when they’re on sale? The older John gets, he tends to buy a nice pair of shoes or jacket on Black Friday. This year he’s on the hunt for a Barbour vest to go in his jacket. Here’s some stuff on his wish list.
Christmas presents. I tend to buy a lot of my Christmas presents on Black Friday. Our family likes to set a dollar limit on what we spend on each other, and it’s always my goal to buy as much as I can at that price point. Every year, I’m told that I spent too much, but in reality, I didn’t. I just shopped till I dropped and found all the best deals. I LOVE a good challenge as much as I LOVE giving gifts… so it’s a win! Here are some gifts that I’m on the hunt for!
As far as my list… some of it might be boring, but its practical things I need/want. Anytime John and I buy ourselves things on Black Friday, we count them as part/most of our Christmas gifts. We’re not really big on buying each other presents. I’m type A and loathe surprises. I know my friend Monica is reading this and laughing so hard. I’m also sure she’s thinking, you just downplayed that 100%! But… the truth is, I like what I like. So, I’m perfectly content with buying my own gifts. Same goes with my hubby! He knows tools + guy stuff better than I do. Here are some things I’ll be looking for.
I hope this helps some with your planning. At first I thought I would do a collage, but I figured this was more practical and real. While it would be fun going on a crazy shopping spree every Black Friday, reality is… we don’t own credit cards, and live by the rule “if you can’t pay cash, you don’t get it”, so buying the whole store just isn’t an option. Planning ahead and saving for the big items is defiantly a must for us! I’ve found that when we do it this way, we never have buyers remorse or overspend.
I can’t wait to see what everyone gets. Make sure to keep checking my stories on Instagram for more sales as they come out! Below, I’ll post some of the great sales that have already been released! Hope everyone has a wonderful week and a Happy Thanksgiving!
xoxo- Lauren
