Huge discounts: Great Black Friday deals for retro fans
Just in time for Black Friday we are once again flooded with discounts and offers. It’s difficult to keep track of things and not fall into a total buying frenzy. That’s why I always make a list in advance of the items of clothing that I really need and, for example, gift ideas for my loved ones. I then work through these during Black Friday week and make sure not to buy too many additional things. But when some of my favorite shops offer great discounts, I really have to pull myself together. That’s why I’m not only telling you my favorite deals in this blog post, but at the end of the post I’m also sharing a few helpful shopping tips with you that we shouldn’t lose sight of even during the biggest discount battles of the year. 😉
PS: I will continue to update this post over the next few days and add more shops as soon as they have interesting sales. So feel free to check back regularly. 😉

Luxury fashion up to 50% off at Mytheresa
Mytheresa* offers a huge selection of luxury fashion from brands such as Dolce & Gabbana, Miu Miu and Co. We can currently save up to 50% plus 10% on selected sale items and one or two items may become affordable. Tip: Whenever I spend a lot on fashion, I make sure that they are things that I will love for a long time. A classic, very special skirt or a breathtaking, timeless coat would be examples of this.

Black Friday at Bonprix
At Bonprix* I have often found cool basics such as knitted dresses and cardigans at really great prices. I’ll tell you here and here how to style them vintage-style. Currently, some styles (including the knitted dress in the photo*) are even reduced by up to 60%.

Great beauty deals at Asambeauty
Not fashion, but beauty products that I currently love: Asambeauty* also has great Black Friday offers, you can find an overview of the sales here*. Personally, I especially love the Magic Finish Make-up Mousse* (currently also available in the limited Black Friday Edition*). It’s actually applied in no time. It covers a bit, but still looks super natural, you can easily spread it with your fingers and the Magic Finish mattifies the skin. You can therefore save the powder afterwards.

Black Friday Shopping Tips:
Sale can lead us to buy things we don’t really need or wanted, initially. So it definitely makes sense to have plan for black Friday. Here is my shopping advice:
- Invest in timeless classics that you will still like in a few years and avoid buying things that just end up in your shopping cart because they are cheap at the moment.
- Before buying something, ask yourself if you also would have bought it for the full price. If the answer is yes, go for it. If the answer is no, on the other side, think again if you really need these things. Maybe you rather want to save the money for something you really like.
- Make sure the clothes have the right size. Never ever shop something just because it is on sale but doesn’t fit properly! This won’t make you happy, believe me.
- And last but not least: Make sure the price really is good. Sometimes the prices seems good at first sight, but in reality, it really isn’t.
