Black Friday Craziness

     Happy Saturday! In less than a week is Black Friday!! This will be my second time going black friday shopping this year and I'm super excited because I'm going to be in Seattle this time! I'm not going at 3am like normal because I'm going to be in downtown Seattle. I'm going to be showing you guys some of my purchases after I go shopping so stay tuned!



     The first thing you want to do is get ready to leave. I usually go for a cute/casual/don't mess with me because it's too early in the morning outfit. I recommend picking out an outfit the night before so you're not panicked and have nothing to wear 2 minutes before you leave. This is a definite must and that's coffee! Coffee gets me motivated and excited to go shopping in the morning so stopping by at Starbucks isn't even a question. I went last year and didn't have to argue over things I wanted to buy so I'm not worried about it this year. Plus who's in the mood to argue at 3am?

• Long Lines: avoid them at ALL COSTS! It's so worth it to go to a different store and then come back later because the line is more likely to go down. If you're with friends then one of you could stand in line, and if there's somthing you want to buy they could buy it for you while your still in line so you can multi-task at once! 
• SALES: Sales are what keep me motivated. The only reason I get up at the crack of dawn is for the sales that happen once a year. If you know a store is having a huge sale go to that store first. I just went to the mall yesterday and Forever 21 was announcing their sale was going to be 50% off everything so that's one of my first stops. Start with the biggest sales and then work your way down to the smalles sales so you can grab all the good stuff while it's still there!
• Crowded Dressing Rooms: There's honestly no way to avoid them. My advice is to get in and out as fast as you can, buy your clothes, and move onto the next store.
• Plan Ahead: If you know all the stores you want to go to and what you want to buy then shopping will be a breeze. Going into a store with no idea what you're looking for is going to have you spending more money than you'd like. Make a list mentally, on your phone, etc. and go to them! You'll be able to zip through all the stores and you'll be SO much more effecient.

Some of my favorite stores: Brandy Melville, Urban Outfitters, Nordstrom, Forever 21, H&M, Pink, Topshop
