If you know me, you know that I know my way around a good sale, and holiday sale season is my time to shine. When I was younger (and shopping in malls was still a thing), my sisters, mother, and I would wake up early on Black Friday and run to all the great deals we could get. See, I come from a long line of smart shoppers, my mom has always told me "If you love something, be patient—it always goes on sale." Now my time has come, and I have been patiently waiting to load up on a haul of great new denim and shoes. J. Crew, Nordstrom, and Madewell have been at the top of my list when it comes to retailers that my wardrobe is yearning for.
Nordstrom has always been a go-to for me when it comes to shopping for denim, and lately, I have been obsessed with all things J. Crew. So I rounded up 30 of the best shoes and jeans that are already on sale pre–Black Friday, so you can get your deals even sooner.
