And Now, The Black Friday Sales That Have Consumed My Every Thought

With Black Friday quickly approaching, I've been swept into a state of nostalgia thinking about the hours I used to spend at the mall with my girlfriends. We'd rush through the crowds eager to stock up on as many early 2000s brands as possible (Abercrombie & Fitch logo tanks, specifically). I look back on these memories fondly, but at 27, I lack the motivation to participate in the same way. This year, I'm getting a head start on my shopping from the comfort of my couch. The sales seem to start earlier and earlier this year, so I decided to round up a few of my favorites for you here. Kate Spade New York has the handbags you'll want to wear and gift this holiday season. Saks has editor-favorite designer pieces that rarely see a discount. Madewell has those wardrobe staples you don't want to miss. And lastly, Ann Taylor has every item you need to create a stellar work wardrobe. Sales come and go, but these fashion items are destined to be in your collection forever. Keep scrolling to shop the best of the best from the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.

Mark your calendars! Kate Spade New York is entering sale season with a bang this year. The sale begins on Black Friday and you'll have the opportunity to get up to 50% off everything through November 26. The iconic shoulder bags will make the perfect holiday gift this year, so don't miss a chance to save on this legacy brand. I'd like to take home the red Jolie Crossbody, and I think you'll agree. 

Shop Saks's Cyber Monday sale and get $50 off every $200 you spend with code CYBER23SF. This is the perfect time to save on editor-favorite brands including Ganni and Anine Bing or purchase a few holiday gifts such as these chic winter gloves and olive shoulder bag from Max+min. 

I get way too excited every time I see a Madewell sale online. This Black Friday, you can get 40% off your purchase, and it's the perfect time to save on cozy knits, staple denim, and core accessories. The five items I've shopped out below are just a taste of the stylish items available at this editor-favorite brand. 

Ann Taylor is a staple brand for building those core workwear pieces. This sale offers 40% off your full-price purchase. I have no doubt the following items will make the cutest holiday party look or win you Best Dressed in the office, so keep scrolling to save on these polished items.
