We generally don’t get too excited by Black Friday preferring to shop online in our comfy clothes eating a turkey sandwich, rather than fight the crowds in the stores and boutiques.  Literally every retail establishment has amazing sales online. Our advice is to stick to the stylish sites that you know and love, and that make returning items easy.   Please remember when you click through our site to shop,  a portion of our commission from sales will be donated to our Charity of the Month.   For November, we are proud to feature Boys’ Club New York and then in December, we will partner with our long-time friends at Help USA.
