The Best Designer Finds To Snag On Sale This Black Friday
The best designer sales offer pieces worthy of investing in this Black Friday, just in time for the holiday season….


Every year around Black Friday, the influx of designer sales turns me into a strange version of myself that is both highly impulsive and overly analytical. Sometimes I’ll overthink a sale item for days, asking all the proper questions like, “Would I buy it for full price?” Other times I stop mid-walk and sit on the side of the road to type in my credit card because I cannot believe that bag I ogled over when it was walking down the runway is a shocking 75% off.
But this year in particular, I am trying to manage my impulsive side and approach designer sales with the mindset that these discounts are an opportunity for me to invest in brands that I love all year round. I’m also considering what I will actually wear during the holiday season as I surely will not be attending the same kind of gatherings as in years past. Though I still feel slightly overwhelmed, I have developed some tricks sure to prevent any nonrefundable regrets. In fact, my favorite wardrobe pieces are always the ones I bought at a discount, which makes a lot of sense because these designer sales are a time for me to buy into the brands I admire on a daily basis. Can I afford a gorgeous designer bag at $2,000? No, but I can splurge on it at $500, knowing that I am being a more thoughtful consumer.
Below, the best designer sale picks to snag on Black Friday and enjoy this holiday season and for years to come. Let’s call this a guide to investment sale shopping.
Proenza Schouler
Without fail, Proenza Schouler always produces some of my favorite shoes and boots of the season. These chunky Mary Jane style loafers would be perfect with tights or socks and the label’s knit turtleneck for a casual, at-home holiday celebration. This extremely chic black dress is more dressed up, but also a timeless investment.
Marine Serre
Marine Serre’s cult-favorite, moon-printed tops rarely go on sale, so this long sleeve shirt is a Black Friday find that will surely go fast! Other ready-to-wear pieces like this charming sweater or embroidered, floral-jacquard skirt are especially fitting for this time of year.
Khaite
When making a still-expensive sale purchase, I look for prints and styles that I loved on the runway, and still love months later when they hit the stores. The zebra prints from Khaite’s fall 2020 runway definitely pass the test, so I have my eye on these festive heels. Khaite is equally known for elevated basics and these cozy sweaters are a luxurious investment sure to last for years to come.
Tory Burch
I loved the romantic styles that graced Tory Burch’s fall 2020 runway. Either of these gorgeous long-sleeved dresses are perfect for an intimate or outdoor gathering, especially if paired with their classic, equestrian-style black boots.
Molly Goddard
These Molly Goddard sale finds could not be more perfect for the season ahead. The whimsical florals and tulle are just what we need to bring some holiday cheer. I am head over heels for this long-sleeved printed blouse in particular, which also has back bows that I adore!
Loewe
Season after season, I marvel at Jonathan Anderson’s gorgeous designs for Loewe. These pearl drop earrings are ideal for any Zoom get togethers, and the mohair scarf or iPhone case would make a fantastic gift for anyone on your list!
Marni
These fabulous Marni shearling slip-ons are destined to be a hit for a stylish holiday at home, especially if worn by the fire with the brand’s knit patchwork scarf. This high-neck, green striped turtleneck and black buckled boots would pair equally well for any occasion this winter.

Keke Palmer Saves The Day At Tina Knowles’ Book Event

In a scene that felt like something straight out of a movie, Keke Palmer became the evening’s hero at Tina Knowles’ book event in Los Angeles this past weekend. Just as Knowles was about to share insights from her new memoir, “Matriarch,” her strapless gown unexpectedly started slipping down. This moment could have turned awkward very quickly, but thanks to Palmer’s quick thinking and sense of humor, it became one of the night’s most memorable moments. As everyone held their breath, Palmer sprang into action, stepping in to help Knowles while keeping her calm.
A video that’s now trending on TikTok captures this incredible moment, showing Palmer supporting Knowles and catching her dress just in time. With the crowd still in shock, Palmer lightened the mood with a funny comment that turned their gasps into laughter. She joked, “They were acting like it was a whole murder show!” before referring to the teleprompter as if it were demanding help. This incident showcased Palmer’s natural talent for handling tricky situations with grace and humor. Knowles, ever so elegant, adjusted her gown and smiled, showing why she’s known as a fashion icon.

This was about fixing a wardrobe malfunction and was a shining example of how to handle unexpected moments with laughter and warmth.

Cardi B’s $60K Birkin Bag Gets The ‘Mommy Treatment’ As Daughter Unleashes Her Creativity

In a moment of relatable frustration, Cardi B took to Instagram to share a funny yet surprising story about her expensive $60,000 Birkin bag, one of her favorite items from her luxury collection. Known for her bold personality and honest social media posts, Cardi revealed that one of her daughters had turned the fancy purse into a makeshift canvas, drawing a heart on it without permission. “Look what my daughter did to my purse,” Cardi said dramatically in her Instagram Story, showing off the iconic bag to her followers. “I literally spent $60,000 on this purse,” she exclaimed, still amazed by the unexpected ‘artwork’ from her little girl.
Although she was frustrated, the mom of three tried to take it all in stride, at least for the moment. Cardi values her hard-earned luxury items, especially her growing collection of high end bags. However, as any parent knows, kids have a skill for creating chaos even in the most cherished parts of life. For Cardi, that chaos includes her high-priced accessories. The post quickly gained attention online, with fans sympathizing with Cardi’s situation. Many found humor in the irony of the event, while others offered support, pointing out that such moments are just part of the unpredictable journey of parenthood. Cardi has previously emphasized that family is her top priority, even if it means dealing with some messiness.

But Cardi’s frustration didn’t stop there. She later took to Twitter to respond to comments made by Kanye West regarding her staying power in the spotlight. While she didn’t mention him directly, her tweet, “7 years 1 album… STILL being a topic and STILL being asked about my music!!!” sent a clear message. She confidently asserted her spot in the entertainment world, clarifying that her fans, known as “The Brim,” are not going anywhere. In the end, whether it’s a damaged Birkin bag or dealing with critics, Cardi B repeatedly shows that she remains unfazed by the ups and downs of fame, always staying true to herself and her family.
