My Friend Wants a Chic Wardrobe—I Sent Her These Early Black Friday Fashion Deals

3 weeks ago 8

British fashion influencer Anna Howard poses in her chic wood-paneled London kitchen wearing a camel coat, gray sweater, black tote bag, black belt, and jeans.

There's nothing I love more than when a friend or family member reaches out to get my fashion advice. I always relish in the hunt to fulfill their request, as there is nothing I love more than this type of shopping sesh. A friend recently requested a list of chic items I recommend, and it just so happened to coincide with some stellar sales ahead of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Naturally, I sent her my top picks out of the bunch.

The retailers with the best fashion deals that caught my eye include Nordstrom, Zara, and J.Crew. I was especially focused on fall-ready pieces that can be worn right away and found everything from standout outerwear and classic sweaters to cool jeans, elevated dresses, and more. Scroll on to shop 30 incredibly chic discounted gems that are worth scooping up before the holiday sale season begins.
