Friday Faves Vol. 16: Top 10 Black Friday Sales

After careful planning, here are my personal Top 10 Black Friday Sales for 2017:

Urban Decay: All products on UrbanDecay.com are 25% OFF with Free Shipping from Nov. 24 - Nov. 26! That's actually kind of incredible? I think this also applies to sale items, so scoop up those cheap odds and ends for basically nothing! (p.s. there's an Ulta-exclusive UD palette, the Nocturnal Shadow Box, that'll be $14.50 in the Ulta Black Friday sale -- eek!)

Makeup Geek: 30% OFF everything on their site on Nov. 24! Time to stock up on all those eyeshadow singles you've had your eye on!

Old Navy: 50% OFF your entire purchase from Nov. 22 - Nov. 24! A great opportunity to refresh your pajama wardrobe and also grab cozy basics for your Christmas list.

Macy's: 40% OFF all boots and shoes and 60% OFF all cold weather boots, among many other offers. That's an incredible deal if you've been looking for some snow boots or a great excuse to just buy any shoe, actually.

NYX: 30% OFF your entire purchase on the NYX website and in NYX retail stores. Ummm, first of all, yes. Second of all, I wanna buy, like, 30 Micro Brow pencils. Let the games begin, baby.

Swimsuits For All: 35% OFF site-wide with $3 standard shipping. You might not be thinking about swimwear before winter even hits, but this is precisely the time to grab those deals!

Alternative Apparel: Get 30% OFF site-wide with the code THANKU30 from Nov. 23 - Nov. 27! They have great basics in soft, easy fabrics. This is the time to stockpile hoodies and t-shirts!

Sonicare at Target: Get 50% OFF the Philips Sonicare 2 Series Power Toothbrush at Target in their exclusive colors (there's a great baby pink) and 50% OFF 2-pack brush head refills. This ends up around $35, so it's a great time to finally take the electric toothbrush plunge.

Ulta Beauty: Among many offers, some faves include:

• BOGO FREE on Not Your Mother's Haircare

• BOGO FREE on Batiste Haircare

• $5 (reg. $10.50) OPI Nail Lacquers

Halloween 2017 at Target & Michaels • Decorations, Costumes & More!

Nothing gives me a thrill like wandering the Halloween sections at my favorite stores. I never know exactly when it’ll happen, but the first time I end up in that weird back corner at Target and realize the back-to-school stuff has been put away and my beloved black and orange reigns supreme, I know I’m in for a treat.

I love looking at every decoration, costume, light, candlestick holder, temporary tattoo…I love it all. I could walk three aisles for an hour, no problem. It’s a small but special annual ritual, and I love seeing the new Halloween trends and comparing the sections at different stores.

Why, yes, I did buy this witch hat mug from Home Goods!

I thought it might be fun to give you a little virtual Halloween section tour at my top spots: Target and Michaels. In case you want to see what they’re carrying this year or just also like looking at spooky novelty jars that you do not need, yet will carry in your cart until you check out.

Target Halloween 2017

Michaels Halloween 2017

Halloween Decoration Trends I’m Seeing in 2017:

Velvet: Skulls, pumpkins, candlesticks - they’re all getting the rich, gothic treatment.

Books: Hollow books are everywhere, disguised as spell books or creepy reads.

Nontraditional Pumpkins: From studded to bright blue to covered in yarn, pumpkins are definitely getting a makeover this year!

Skeletons: Yes, this is a classic, but this year the bone game has been stepped up! Both stores have a full aisle dedicated to just skeletons, including an array of unusual options, like cats and wiener dogs, at Target.

Hands: There are several options for hand-held (literally) bowls this year!

Photo-Realistic Costumes: Target is decked out with these, like the hyper-real taco, donut, cheeseburger, hot dog and peanut butter jar.

I hope you enjoyed the Halloween sections as much as I did! 😊

20 Cozy Sweaters You Need This Fall

Ahhh, sweater weather. The weather so nice they make novelty t-shirts about it. Somehow they don't see the irony there?

This is (or will be when we stop getting these random 80 degree days) the perfect time of year to wrap up in a soft, maybe fuzzy, maybe oversized, sweater to keep the chillies at bay. A girl can only fit so many sweaters in her closet, but no one said anything about limiting (browser) window shopping, did they?
