So, basically, in a nutshell, it was a.w.e.s.o.m.e. The night before was less awesome-- my tummy hurt from eating too much food. Specifically mashed potatoes. And maybe that extra last piece of pie. I had my alarm set to 5:00 am, but woke up at 11:00, 12:00, 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 4:15, and 4:30 before I finally resigned myself and got up. Not a good start to the day. But then, oh then, I arrived at Anthropologie. Because you know their extra 50% off all sale items is what got my butt in gear to finally do Black Friday. And I scored so many awesome things that all the tummy aches and lack of sleep didn't matter anymore. Like this blouse. This amazingly beautiful, 100% silk blouse, for $30. Yeah baby. That's what I'm talkin' about.
p.s.- I have decided not to do a big post with all my Black Friday finds because I think that would be rather overwhelming. Let's just say Ryan had to come to the rescue midway through to help me carry bags. Instead, I'll note at the bottom of my post if something was a Black Friday find and how much it cost. Kapisch?
Shop:
- Urban Outfitters jeans (Buy here)
- Anthropologie blouse (Black Friday find for $30- no longer available online, may still be available in some stores)
- BCBG blazer (brand new via Ebay for $9! Buy similar here)
- Anthropologie leather tote bag (Black Friday find for $50. Buy here)
- Anthropologie shoes (Bought on sale, no longer available)
I love everything about this look :)
ReplyDeleteespecially green pants are amazing :)

thanks for your coment !
ReplyDeleteGreat color
kisses
That many finds?! Whoa :D
ReplyDeleteGood for you, pairing those green jeans with a shirt that has no green in it. It's all about complimenting, not matching! I was in my wee little hometown on Black Friday, which is woefully lacking an Anthro store. No sales for me :(

The top looks great with the green jeans! Sounds like your Black Friday was a success!
ReplyDeleteHaha, you got up so late!! I love this top! I wish we had an Anthro near us, but sadly we don't and I was too late on the online sale :(
ReplyDeleteI am excited to see what else you scored!!!
This makes me wish for spring. Great deals!
ReplyDeleteflorals with green, sooooo lovely!

I love that blouse, and the photoshoot in downtown SF! I've never done Black Friday shopping in the city - it must have been insane!
ReplyDeleteyour blouse is gorgeous, and your pictures make me miss SF so, so much!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Miska :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, they were plentiful. Oops :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Bummer :( They were having the sale online too though...you didn't manage to snag anything?
ReplyDeleteThanks Heather! And yes, it was a little too successful if you know what I mean :)
ReplyDeletelate?? 4:30 am?? you gotta be kidding me :)
ReplyDeleteI'll keep my eyes peeled for that top for you at anthro and let you know if I see it anywhere :)
Thanks! I love wearing color all year round- helps the day be more cheery even when it's gloomy out :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Annie!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Cacy!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kim! It was crowded for sure, but really not as crazy as I thought! Everyone I met was nice and civilized- no pushing or shoving
ReplyDeleteThanks Danielle! SF is wonderful- you should come back :)
ReplyDeleteI thought you meant pm!!! Ok, no, that's SUPER early!
ReplyDeleteSounds good :) Thanks!
Nice! I didn't realize Anthropologie was doing a Black Friday deal, which is probably a good thing, because, contrary to popular belief, I do value my money, and I like when my checking account balance is in the positives. But I completely envy your blouse!
ReplyDeleteThat blouse is very nice! Wow, only $30??? You can't even get clothes at Mandees for that cheap anymore. lol
ReplyDeletehttp://raviolisandwaterworks.com
Lol, I like when my bank account is in the positive too. Thank goodness I did not go THAT crazy, but I still got a lot :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! And yup- I told you Black Friday was awesome :)
ReplyDeleteOh oops, I probably should have clarified that :)
ReplyDeleteThese pictures make me miss your city! And you ;) Love the blouse. I think all of Anthro's clothes were made for you in mind: your coloring, your figure, your style :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Lara- I miss you too!! And thank you for the compliments on the blouse :) Trust me, there is a lot I try on at anthro that aint pretty :)
ReplyDeleteThis top is gorgeous on you! And that bag is super awesome. Great job on the sales!
ReplyDeleteoooh those jeans are to die for!!!! you look soo pretty!!! :) <3

So glad you found some beautiful items! I ended up deciding to shop Anthro's sale online, which was fine until they cancelled my order 5 hours after I placed it. Apparently everything I had chosen was already sold out, but the site hadn't updated itself. I was a grumpy gills. BUT my closet and bank account are a happy gills, because now the former won't explode from all the extra clothes, and the latter won't be so empty that we have to eat cat food for the rest of the month! Hooray!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! So cute with those jeans! Sounds like it was very worth it :)
ReplyDeleteAaaaa! So beautiful! What a great find, I'm just in love with this blouse! It's wonderful matched with the green trousers!
ReplyDeleteI dearly wish we had black friday here in Hungary. :D
I absolutely adore your kelly green pants!! I have been pinning to get a pair of cobalt blue ones for a while, but might need to add green ones onto the list too (:

What a fun look for black Friday! I usually see people in their PJs, so I'm glad not everyone dressed like they just woke up...because they probably did.

Yet another incredibly colorful outfit. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThis year was the first in many that I didn't go Black Friday shopping. I kind of missed it. Usually when I go I wear sweats.. I'm proud of you for rocking that pretty, bright outfit! Glad you found some good deals!

love your amazing shirt! :)
ReplyDeletexx
Thanks Loren!! There's a lot more where that came from :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Kasia :) I do love my green jeans!
ReplyDeleteBooooo. Anthro > catfood. Where are your priorities friend?
ReplyDeleteAlso, that sucks. One thing I ordered online got cancelled too :(
Thanks! It definitely was!
ReplyDeleteThanks Madeline!! One year you'll have to come- you can come to my house for Thanksgiving and then the next day we can shop together :)
ReplyDeleteYes, green pants are awesome! And I just cobalt blue ones too :)
ReplyDeleteOh I didn't actually wear this on Black Friday. I bought the shirt and bag on Black Friday. I just wore jeans with a semi-cute top and booties on Friday :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Tracy! I'm not straying far from color anytime soon :)
ReplyDeleteOh, sorry for the confusion, I didn't wear this on Friday. I bought the top and bag on Friday. Sorry you didn't get to go this year :(
ReplyDeleteThanks!!
ReplyDeleteI love love your new blouse!! It say's Skippy all over it :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Sayaka!! I really felt that way too :)
ReplyDeleteHoly cow that outfit is fab! I love that shirt it really works with your skin tone :) I'm a new follower to your blog.
ReplyDeleteSadly, no Anthro sales for this girl. I probably need to put a moratorium on shopping anyways. I can hardly fit anything else in my closet and I have more outfits planned than I can blog about ;)
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe this was $30 the top is beautiful! I can't wait to see what else you bought, some of my twitter friends told me they shopped anthro online but had their orders cancelled...
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Lauren!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Bessie!! I actually had one of my online orders from Anthro cancelled too which was a major bummer :( I hope they'll make up for it somehow...
ReplyDeleteHehe, I can relate :)
ReplyDeleteLove that blouse! Jealous that you got to shop the amazing Anthro Black Friday sale :) So glad you found so many goodies!
ReplyDeleteI love that blouse! And everything else about that look :) Love the bright colors :)

Thanks Katherine! Maybe next year we can go together if you'd be willing to brave the crowds after that Saks experience of yours :)
ReplyDeleteI love the top. It's very Skippy - loud, vibrant, and a whole lot of fun :) Your pairing with green is very well done - I don't think I'd think of that. And $30 for Anthro is unheard of. That place is a money sucker otherwise.
ReplyDeleteYou know, Numi is terribly afraid of the outdoors. Refuses to take walks so we have to force the horrible hound out of the house. Sigh... do you have any tips?
Thanks Olga!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Anna, I'll take that as a compliment :) And don't be scared of anthro- I frequently get things there for $30, and even $20 and $10- I just stick to the sale rack!
ReplyDeleteAnd that's so weird about Numi! I don't have any suggestions except a lot of praising and treats when she does go outdoors. Honestly I'd probably drag her out, and then praise her like crazy and give her tons of treats when you were out there- hopefully eventually it'll stick!
Wow I can't believe you braved BF shopping in SF, looked pretty crazy there on the news with all the protesters. At least you scored some good stuff. Love that top!

love your black friday steals so far! can't wait to see the rest
ReplyDeletethank you for your comment on my blog- if you do the glitter booties, you better show us!
xx
Thanks! It really wasn't so bad, at least my experience wasn't!
ReplyDeleteThe same thing happened to me. I ate too much and my stomach was KILLING me. I slept maybe 1.5 hours before I got up to hit the black Friday deals.
ReplyDeleteI love your green skinnies with the printed blouse. This is a fun outfit. Me likey!

Thanks Jessica!! I'm horrible with DIY, but maybe I'll brave it and give them a shot. Just gotta get cheap booties :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to know I wasn't alone :) Hope you got some great Black Friday deals! And thank you :)
ReplyDeleteumm, LOVE the green pants!
ReplyDeleteSounds great, I'll have to start saving up! :D
ReplyDeleteWhy thank you :)
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteHaHa! And you looked great girl! Love the colors in that top and jeans. Awesome! :D
