Guess what y’all? It’s apparently already #BlackFriday. (shhhh don’t tell the stores #Thanksgiving hasn’t happened yet. They don’t need to know that.) It seems like the sales start earlier and earlier every year, and I AM HERE FOR IT. I say, let’s give lots of thanks, while also scoring lots of deals. For which I will give thanks. See how that works?

So, because I love you guys, and because I want to help you (say it together) save money by spending it, here are my top five ways to make the most of #blackfriday and #cyberweek.

best of the nordstrom fall sale

You know how, when Nordstrom has a sale, you never know about it? Because no one on social media EVER mentions it?

*rolls eyes so hard they fall out of her head.

*Picks them up and puts them back in again, because it is my mission and duty to make Nordstrom love me, buy one of every thing, give John a heart attack, I mean, INFORM you guys of important ways to wreck your credit score.

november necessities

click on any photo above to shop, or just send this entire post to your significant other. THEY LIKE IT WHEN WE HELP THEM.

It’s officially November y’all! Otherwise known as The Month In Which Sherri Plans to Blame Everything on the Time Change.

Including but not limited to mood swings, overspending, forgetting things (like her budget and how to fold laundry), and her overall state of general disorganization.

ASOS faves for fall

If you’ve been around for awhile, you know my love for ASOS runs deep. Not only are the prices really affordable (for the most part), ASOS is so on point, trend-wise. Add to all that a discount code for 15% off EVERYTHING (WOW15), and well…..your purchase is basically free. Ish.

j.crew mercantile + amazon fashion

*Finds out J.Crew Mercantile is available on Amazon.

*Races John to the credit cards before he can run them through his shredder.

*Laughs evilly at the look on John’s face when he realizes I’ve got those bad boys memorized.

It’s always been high-quality, but remember when J.Crew used to be a bit more, ahem, AFFORDABLE? And you know how now, when you browse the J.Crew website, the prices hurt your feelings? (Not to mention your bank account?)

favorite boots of fall

I’m asked all the time about my favorite shoe brand. In fact, it’s probably one of the top questions I get, and don’t y’all know that’s like asking me to pick my favorite child?

(Just kidding, it’s not that hard. Basically, I consider which one is making me look the best, and causing the least amount of pain. Exactly the criteria for picking my favorite child. Har de har har, #sofunnytodaysherri)

that handsfree life

If y'all have read here for any amount of time, or you know me IRL, then you know backpacks are my jam. And that I wear them constantly. Because it's clearly so fashion-y to wear the same bag every day, with no regard for whether it matches or compliments my outfit at all.

What?

friday favorites : back to school edition

Guys, get excited! It's FRIDAYYYYYY FAVORITESSSSSS!!!

(I know what you're thinking, and the answer is yes. I AM pretending to be Oprah. Act like it's normal, okay?)

If you're anything like me, you've been drowning in a sea of back to school this, and back to school that. You've probably taken your kids back to school shopping, gotten back to school haircuts, and attended a million back to school events.

anniversary sale : 16 last minute deals

There are SOME PEOPLE who will actually be GLAD when the Anniversary Sale ends tomorrow. These are obviously crazy people, who wouldn't know a good deal if it smacked them in the face. Or was hypothetically delivered to their doorstep via the kind folks at UPS. You know who you are. JOHN.

dressing daughters

...is the worst. The end.

Just kidding. Mostly. But I'll bet some of you #girlmoms will relate so hard to this post. When our daughters were babies and toddlers, it was REALLY FUN to dress them, right? Whether you were into smocking or skinny jeans, cold shoulder shirts or big bows, it's like playing dress up with a cute doll. One who cries, poops, and throws tantrums. yes. But a doll who will at least wear what the heck you spend your cash money on, because DOESN'T SHE KNOW PEOPLE PAY YOU TO DO THIS??. A-HEM.

second (and third) round picks

Now, I'm not saying I have favorites among my precious anniversary sale purchases. Except that I do. I totally do. And can I tell y'all a little secret? Almost none of those favorites ever come from Round One. Year after year, it's ACTUALLY my ROUND 2 (or 3...or 4....) picks that end up being my go-to staples. (You'll know which ones are my faves by the way you see them many days in a row, without regard for societal norms and things like cleanliness.)

the big five

Let's be honest guys, there are WAY MORE than 5 things from the Anniversary Sale that I LOVE AND ADORE AND WANT TO COME LIVE WITH ME FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER.

(Because I am obviously excited about the #nsale at what is a completely normal and emotionally stable level.)

Despite being the worst at narrowing down a list, for you guys, I can do it. I came up with FIVE. Five things that are probably selling out as I type these words. I'm looking at you Rag & Bone circle bag that was in my cart on it's merry little way to checkout, and THEN GOT STOLEN FROM ME by Super Speedy Susan, who was more organized, quicker with her card, and who is also fake but it helps me to blame someone, okay? #actlikeitsnormal
