Black Friday 2012

I just got back from Black Friday shopping, and the sales this year are pretty amazing. Perhaps it was because I went with my mom this year. Maybe it was because I went to a different shop at a slightly secluded area. All I know is that shopping was a great experience this year.

I went to Macy's at Valco avec ma mere. It was pretty fun. I ran around looking for my winter wear, which was the focus of tonight's mission!

I found two lovely scarves, one cashmere (insert Seinfeld reference) and one acrylic. Both are very pretty and very soft. I will undoubtedly have fun with them. The only problem is that they're a bit short, so it'll be hard to tie them nicely. But, c'mon, they're scarves. I love scarves. I am a scarf person, so I think... enough said.

I also went to the juniors section to find an overcoat. I ended up trying on a ton of pea coats-- none of which I liked. Seeing how I have more than a few black jackets, I decided to go all out and get a bright, flashy color. ...And we all know that's red. So, I ended up getting this very, very warm red overcoat. It has this odd collar that makes me look like Godfather (which can be good and bad). It also falls right above my knee, making me look unproportionally short. However, when I wear boots with it, I don't look as short. The major upside, apart from its practicality, is how skinny it makes me look! Wonderful cutting. I love how warm it is and (for the most part) how it makes me look.

During my search for an overcoat, I stumbled upon a pair of boots that looked fabulous. They go up to my knee in this crinkly fashion. They're not skin tight and their soles are terribly flat (and pretty thin). They looked amazing though.

Each of these four items was a great deal. Actually, they were all 50% off from the regular price. That is amazing. Behold, the magic of Black Friday. Perhaps, the only thing that wasn't worth it was the boots, but I don't really have any other pairs. I will definitely be warm this winter and, may I add, dressing pretty fashionably (what a first!). Anyways, it's getting really late. I must away. I bid you good night.
