I love seeing what everyone purchases this time of year. Clever gift ideas and fabulous deals abound! Over the last few years I have avoided leaving the house on Black Friday, preferring instead to shop from home. This year was no different!
Quite simply put I don’t have many gifts to shop for; my niece and nephews prefer cash and we don’t exchange gifts with the adults. My husband wants one thing! This phone stand! Ha!!! My oldest son gave me a list with links to things he wanted from Nordstrom so that was easy peasy! Of course I have a few other surprises up my sleeve but he’s basically done. My younger son gave me a list with links to items he wanted from Amazon. Shopping for him took approximately 5 minutes. See what I mean? Not a lot to do.
Now don’t get me wrong, I find great gifts! But you know who they are perfect for? Me! So here’s what I bought for my husband to give to me!

Scheming future outfit!
Sweater || White Denim || Leopard Booties || Bracelets
This cashmere sweater is on sale for $65 (regularly $98). I hope it wears well. Last year I bought two sweaters from Nordstrom (Gibson brand) and they pilled like nobody’s business. I could not stand looking at them any longer – out they went!
The day before Thanksgiving I bought these pants and scored such a great deal. I had a $5 Reward and they were 50% off. I bought this “velvet” top in a size medium. You can see how I styled the pants here.
Victoria Emerson has some of the very best bracelets. I bought two during the BOGO sale. One for me and one as a gift for a friend.
This necklace had caught my eye a few weeks ago so I went for it! I think it is stunning.
My faux leather leggings are about 3 years old. They are the BP brand from Nordstrom and were under $30. I still like them but I decided to give these a try. Everyone swears by them!

My favorite planner!
My favorite planners come from Target. I bought this one for 2020. I like the size and the lay out.
I bought these two topiaries from Amazon on Sunday and they arrived on Tuesday. I love them! They’ll go on either side of my front door and since they are artificial I can’t kill them! Score!
Also from Amazon I purchased a set of four Christmas pillow covers. The price is so good for the set and they are adorable! P.S. I only needed two but I have the other two on stand by!
As usual I am linking up with Narci, Andrea, and Erika for Friday Favorites!
Oh, one more thing before you go. Macy’s Friends and Family sale is going strong. This is the best sale each year in my opinion. We stock up on clothes for my husband and get a few things for my boys. We especially like these Ralph Lauren pull overs or these from Tommy Hilfiger.Brands like Levi’s and Nike are part of the sale too. Also? Beauty items are on sale for 15% off! Shop the sale here!
Have a super weekend my friends!
