Behind the scenes

 What do you always look for in the Black Friday sales? 

"I always try to buy quality pieces for less. Last year I had my eye on this beautiful long leather coat with a teddy lining and I took the opportunity during Black Friday. Leather boots are also good. Pointed or square-toe – anything works! I also look out for premium and luxury makeup, especially bundle or gift sets."

What advice would you give to someone who wants to add to their fashionable wardrobe during Black Friday? 

"During the Summer I buy winter clothes, and in the Winter I buy Summer clothes. This is how I get some of the best deals. I’ve picked up some great dresses in November so I keep all seasons in mind when I’m shopping the sales."

How do you make sure you walk away with the perfect Black Friday finds? 

"I mostly buy online and try to log on to the sale as soon as it starts. Don’t forget about apps - I always make sure I download the apps of brands I love as sometimes that’s where they provide early access to the Black Friday Sales. After buying online, then I go visit the stores. Some people think that all the good pieces are snapped up early, but in the past I've grabs some great finds during the end of the Black Friday sales."
