Happy Black Friday! It is finally here. The day after Thanksgiving where we can officially celebrate the holiday season. We kick it off with the shopping-ist day of the year. I get most of my shopping done this weekend. Mostly, to get it out of the way and not feel so stressed. Also, because I can get some amazing deals and end up getting more or better gifts for my family. 


I had big plans to do a more major round up or pick out some of my favs for you guys, but this week was crazy and I ran out of time. Let me know if you want something like that and I could make that happen by Monday. I also wanted to round up a few local and small boutiques. If you aren't familiar with some of them I wanted to give you a quick description of each.

Alice + Wonder 20% off with code ITSLIT
This is actually a Chicago boutique but they have an amazing online store. They were an online only store until they bought a storefront. It's a mix of very feminine, edgy and fun pieces. Very metropolitan but also not afraid of color. The owners are so fabulous you will love this place!

Apricot Lane Maple Grove 30% off in-store or use code GIVETHANKS2018
This is a go-to spot for casual and comfy wear. Some of my favorite sweaters ever are from here. I do have a relationship with this boutique and they are the coolest people ever. Very much in the earth tones and your casual weekend wear. Occasionally, they have some fancier pieces too so check 'em out!

Primp 20% off in store only
This is my go-to place for more feminine pieces, work attire and some going out clothes. The store is very versatile and there is new merchandise all the time. I also just walked in their holiday show and they have the best pieces for your holiday and NYE parties. 

Proper + Prim 20% off in store
If I want an edgier, trendier piece this is where I go. They always have on the pulse interesting items. They also have a solid selection of dresses, jumpers, sets that are holiday party ready. I have some of the coolest pieces in my closet from this store. They do ship  and will hold items for you too, which I highly recommend. 

Tula Boutique 25% off with CYBER25
Tula is very casual and comfortable. I think of them as simple and casual. Amazing basic tees, sweaters and comfy cardigans. This is for the easy going girl but still chic.  

Northmade Co 30% off in studio purchases


Sota Clothing $1-$50 get 15% off CODE: SOTAFRIDAY15 | $51-$100 get 20% off CODE: SOTAFRIDAY20 | $101-$200 get 25% off CODE: SOTAFRIDAY25 | $201+ get 30% off CODE: SOTAFRIDAY30

Both Northmade and Sota are local and represent Minnesota. In the last few years priding yourself on where you are from has become very on trend. These two are my favorite places that are just killin' it with tees, sweatshirts, hats and home decor. Check them out!
