BEST OF: BLACK FRIDAY SALES

HolidayGiftGuide

As we move from Thanksgiving into the true holiday season, I’m feeling extra thankful for all the big and little blessings I’ve got in my life. From life in New York to having Adam as my partner in this venture (and life), traveling the world, my friends, family and career.. and of course you all! Whether you’ve followed from the beginning or just stop in from time to time – this little corner of the internet means the world to me. So thank you. And one of my favorite way to say thanks to those that are near and dear to me is by finding them a perfectly fitting present. So without further ado – I bring you the best of the internets Black Friday sales. I’ll be updating throughout the weekend and if you really want to make a strong game plan I suggest you check out my Gift Guide for Her, Him and the Hostess first before then perusing the sale options below. Happy shopping and enjoy your long weekend!

MENSWEAR INSPIRED HOLIDAY STYLE WITH OLD NAVY

Menswear Inspired Holiday Style with Old Navy - culottes, overcoat and knit scarf

If you’ve been stopping by The Steele Maiden for any length of time, than you already know I love mixing in on-trend affordable pieces from Old Navy to my seasonal wardrobe (in Fall I was all about this plaid poncho). Which is why I was pretty excited when Old Navy challenged me to style a holiday inspired look around a pair of their culottes.

HOLIDAY PARTY STYLE WITH TALBOTS

Holiday Party Style: Talbots Gingham Skirt and Steve Madden Lace-Up Heels

While a little black dress and black pumps will get you pretty far in the holiday party season – I’d like to make a case for this full gingham skirt and these burgundy lace-up heels instead. Family dinner? Office party? Date night to see the Rockettes? Check mate. This outfit is my ideal mix of classic and modern.. with a little touch of holiday flair thrown in for good measure.

GRAND CENTRAL STATION: HOLIDAY TRAVEL STYLE WITH TALBOTS

Grand Central Station - Holiday Travel Style with Talbots

While I can’t wait for this week’s big meal, spending time with family & friends and having a few extra days off work – I’ll be the first to say I’m not looking forward to the holiday travel. I’ve taken trains, buses, cars and planes to get home on various holidays and it’s never without stress. Which is precisely why I wanted to add a dose of glamour back to the task. Grand Central Station and step on it darling…

Whether you’re looking for a cute under $25 gift for a co-worker, a new it-bag for your ‘she’s already got everything’ sister, a pop of preppy plaid for your always chic best friend or something to pamper your hard-working mama – it’s all here. Hover over the images above to shop or scroll down to browse by section.
