The Best Black Friday Deals
Sure, we all love a good deal, but let’s keep it responsible, folks. Here’s your carefully curated cheat sheet for the Black Friday madness
This year, I really didn’t plan on writing a Black Friday newsletter edition … I was all set to ignore this day of wild consumerism. Just pretend it wasn’t happening, you know? But then it hit me: It is happening. Like it or not, Black Friday is here, and instead of leaving you to stumble chaotically, stressed out, and unprepared through a jungle of online stores and deals, I figured I’d give you a little help. A curated guide, packed with brands and products I genuinely recommend—some of which I own, some of which I’m eyeing myself. Better that than leaving you to fall victim to impulse buys you might regret later, right?
So, here we are. And let’s be real for a second: With rising prices everywhere, it’s absolutely fair to want to save a little cash. Whether it’s for your wardrobe, holiday gifts, or just some things to make your home cozier and your life easier—go ahead, get the deal. So, without further ado, here are the best deals for the upcoming days. Tried, tested, and neatly arranged in alphabetical order for your convenience.

& Other Stories – 20% Off
& Other Stories is a classic among my favorite brands, even though lately I’ve been finding more at Arket and COS. Still, it’s worth checking out their online store during Black Friday, especially if you're looking for an outfit for a special occasion – or their cashmere collection! I have a sweater from it and wear it all the time, the quality is amazing. Also my green velvet dress is currently on sale – I will keep this for years and years to come for parties and weddings!
Anita Hass – 40% Off
Anita Hass is the crème de la crème of shopping. Khaite without a discount? That’s like driving a Tesla on gas—completely unnecessary. With 40% off, this is your chance to snag a timeless staple from Khaite, grab a pair of Agolde jeans (the Ren is seriously amazing!), or invest in some sleek Aeyde shoes.
I personally own pieces from all three brands, and they’re absolute favorites in my wardrobe—trust me, these are the kind of buys you’ll love for years to come!
Adidas – 50% Off
If you’ve somehow resisted the Adidas hype all these years, now’s your time to cave. Since my pregnancy, I’ve basically lived in Adidas—I’m talking three pairs of Sambas and Gazelles (yep, really). My current obsession? The SL72 in Bordeaux—such a vibe.
Oh, and don’t sleep on their track pants! They’re my go-to for chill days when I want a break from jeans.
American Vintage – 75% Off
As someone who spends a lot of time in a home office, I’ve learned the power of top-tier loungewear—comfy but polished enough to greet the delivery person without shame. This spring, I treated myself to an American Vintage sweatshirt and a pair of ribbed, wide-leg gray pants while in Mallorca, and let me tell you, they’re on constant rotation. Perfect for everything from Pilates to typing away at my desk.
Pro tip: Size down! Their pieces run big, so you’ll want to keep that in mind while snagging your cozy new favorites.
Breuninger – 30% Off
Breuninger is bringing the heat with a great selection of my beloved Agolde jeans. Let’s be real—at over €300 a pair, they’ve officially reached “investment piece” territory, so I never buy them without a discount.
Closed – 30% Off
I was a bit in disbelief when I just saw that my Closed Bag One is also on sale for Black Friday. I get asked about it all the time and absolutely love its design – right now, you can get it in dark green, red, brown, gray, curry and black (!) for 30% off. And it’s definitely worth it at that price. Besides dark green, my favorite is the gorgeous red.
COS – 25% Off
COS is one of my absolute go-to spots for fashion. Sometimes I’m all in for the minimalist vibe, and other times not so much. Right now, though, I’m obsessed with their styles—and you can snag my denim co-ord (featuring wide-leg jeans) in the sale! Better hurry!
Damson Madder – 40% Off
Last year, I fell head over heels for the British brand Damson Madder, and their bow-tie blouse with an XXL collar became my most-worn piece. Fun fact: I’ve never received so many compliments on an item—women literally stopped me on the street to ask about it!
Sadly (but predictably), that blouse isn’t on sale. But don’t despair! Plenty of other gorgeous pieces, like their jeans and dresses, are up for grabs at 40% off. And while we do have to deal with customs fees here in Germany, that discount definitely takes the sting out of it.
Edit: The blouse is now on sale!!!
Design Bestseller – 30% Off
When it comes to interior classics, Black Friday is the time to strike. If you’ve been eyeing some design staples, here’s your chance to snag them at a discount. A few favorites from our home that you can now grab on sale:
Louis Poulsen Panthella Table Lamp (with rechargeable battery!)
Glossier – 30% Off
Okay, Black Friday is the perfect excuse for me to finally restock my absolute favorite deodorant in the world. But honestly, there’s so much more from Glossier that I’ve been loving for years (you can find a full list of everything I’ve tested here). Some of my everyday staples include:
Glossier You (my all-time favorite fragrance)
Lululemon – 50% Off
When it comes to working out, I cannot go without Lululemon. Sure, I own other leggings, but the ones I always reach for are my high-waisted Align leggings. Even if the classic black ones aren’t on sale, definitely check out the other colors for a great deal on leggings.
Levi's – 50% Off
Not in the mood to drop €300 on jeans? Levi’s has you covered! My denim drawer is home to at least three or four Levi’s styles, and they never disappoint. My favorites? The Ribcage Bell, Ribcage Wide Leg, and Baggy Dad—perfect fits every time. For sizing, I usually go for a 27 or 28.
Lyko – Up to 70% Off
With up to 70% off, Lyko is the ultimate destination for scoring amazing skincare and makeup deals—including some of my absolute daily go-tos. Here’s a quick rundown of the products I’m about to stock up on:
Massimo Dutti – 40% Off
Massimo Dutti only made its way back onto my radar this year, but it’s completely won me over. In the sale, you’ll find not just great basics, but also gems like the perfect leather jacket, brown trench coats, a beige workwear jacket—and yes, the black version of my brown leather jacket with the contrast collar!
Missoma – 40% Off
Missoma is offering up to 40% off their entire collection, and I’m here for it. I already own a few of their gorgeous pieces, but right now, I’m eyeing a new pair of hoops. Why? Because I’ve managed to lose my real gold ones not once, but twice. Shame on me!
This time, I’m playing it smart (and budget-friendly) with Missoma’s alternatives. I’ll save the real gold splurge for when my baby stops enthusiastically tossing everything into the trash bin.
Mantle – Buy 2, Pay 1
Mantle has become an absolute staple in my skincare routine, and their Black Friday deal is chef’s kiss: Buy 2, Pay 1. It’s the perfect excuse to stock up on a favorite and try something new at the same time.
My skin swears by these gems:
Mytheresa – 50% Off
Let’s be honest, Mytheresa is pure temptation when it comes to sales, and this one’s no exception. From playful Ganni blouses to chic Re/Done jeans, timeless Ancient Greek Sandals, and perfect staples from The Frankie Shop, you’ll find plenty of brands that are absolute must-haves in my wardrobe.
Net-A-Porter – 50% Off
Net-A-Porter brings just as much luxury to the table as Mytheresa, and with up to 50% off right now, it’s impossible to resist. Naturally, I had to check if any of the pieces on my wishlist made it into the sale… and let’s just say, it’s very tempting.
Niche-Beauty.com – 20% Off
Niche Beauty has been my treasure trove for discovering amazing brands for years. Black Friday is my chance to finally restock some of my most-loved products—my ride-or-die favorites. Here are the ones I can’t recommend enough:
Sephora – 25% Off
I swear, every single one of these Sephora products would make it onto my list of most-used and beloved beauty favorites for 2024. With 25% off, I’m stocking up like there’s no tomorrow. Rare Beauty, Makeup by Mario, Hourglass, Charlotte Tilbury – these are the brands I can’t live without.
Uniqlo – Daily Deals
Uniqlo’s got a new deal every day, so while I can’t give you specific product recommendations right now, I can wholeheartedly vouch for two things: The Heattech products (they’ll keep you toasty through the coldest days) and the Cashmere Collection (my one is from the menswear section).
Here’s a little sneak peek of what’s coming your way in the next issue this Sunday:
