I Asked My Chicest Colleagues What They’re Shopping On Black Friday—24 Elegant Items They Sent My Way

The buttery-soft cashmere cardigan with a clean, refined silhouette. Looks endlessly chic worn over denim, dresses or simple tees.

I’ve been eyeing these trousers for months. The drape is flawless, the tailoring razor-sharp, and they’d instantly elevate every knit I own.

The forever top-handle bag I've always wanted to own. The Bayswater is iconic for a reason; structured, timeless and endlessly wearable.

This is the kind of sleek merino layer I rely on all winter. It’s lightweight but warm, ultra-clean, and slots perfectly under every coat and blazer I own.

An iconic buy I've wanted for years. It fits everything I need but still looks refined.

These wide-legs give me that relaxed, French-girl slouch without ever looking messy. They’re polished enough for dinner and comfortable enough for all-day wear.

This suede trench is one of those pieces that makes every outfit look intentional. The texture is gorgeous and the cut feels timeless.

I’ve had my eye on this bouclé jacket ever since I spotted its textured weave and jewel-button detail.

These are the best jeans I own, by far. The cropped straight shape is classic, flattering and works with every shoe I own.

There is only one makeup product I refuse to leave the house without having on my face, and that is Merit Flush Balm. Believe every ounce of the hype around this stuff. One swipe on the cheeks delivers the creamiest, melting veil of flush that just makes you look alive. The best bit? It can be applied in seconds and is entirely foolproof—something I very much appreciate.

DedCool Xtra Milk has been the defining perfume of 2025. Its creamy, comforting, clean-smelling aroma has graced the neck of every cool girl I know. It's the sort of perfume that draws everyone around you in—it feels like home and is impossible to dislike. At only £57 a bottle, you better believe I'm stocking up for myself and keeping a bottle or two aside for my hardest-to-buy-for friends.

Ask any beauty editor and they will tell you that this very candle is the best Christmas candle ever made—it smells like fresh pine with a green, crunchy, wintry kick that simply makes you melt. Usually, at this time of year, it becomes somewhat difficult to get hold of as the limited stock starts to sell out. But right now, not only is there still stock in Space NK, it's also discounted with £11 off. I've sent the link to everyone I know, and you better believe we're going to have the best smelling houses in town.

This cashmere-merino knit is the perfect everyday jumper. It’s soft, flattering and layers beautifully over shirts or under coats.

The perfect gold earrings I've been looking for.

I live in trousers, and this pair from A&F have the perfect tailored fit.

These are the jeans I keep coming back to. The sculptural, tapered shape looks so polished, they’re the denim update I’ve been craving.

These earrings are bold but minimal, exactly my jewellery sweet spot. They’d instantly lift even a simple tee.

Very '90s, and everything I want in a winter heel: sleek, elongating and surprisingly wearable. They’d elevate every outfit I own.

I tend to struggle finding the perfect trousers for winter, but the Reformation Gale Pants are it. I’m obsessed with how effortlessly elegant these look for evening.

I'll never not buy my winter coat at COS. This coat is pure quiet luxury. The oversized cut, the weight, the clean lapels, it’s everything I want in a winter investment.

I've been looking for the perfect everyday bag for months, and I've just found it. Roomy, elegant and incredibly chic without trying too hard.

There isn't a liner that can rival Victoria Beckham Beauty's Satin Kajal Liners. They'e buttery soft, gliding onto the eyes and effortlessly blending to create all kinds of eye looks, from smouldering smokey eyes to everyday definition. My favourite shade is Cocoa, a matte brown that is so wearable, but I also have my eyes on the Cocoa Pavé shade during the Victoria Beckham Black Friday sale, which is a brown tone with subtle flecks of silver sparkle that's perfect for the party season.

Having tried so many LED masks now, I've come to the conclusion that Shark's Cryoglow LED Mask is up their with some of the best that I've tried after owning it for over six months now. I've noticed a visible difference in my skin, which looks plumper, more even-toned and thanks to the blue light, my blemishes heal so much faster, too. The addition of the cooling cryotherapy eye mask is genius. It's so good, that my boyfriend has stolen mine from me, so I'm looking at buying one during the Black Friday sale.

I never see Byredo perfumes discounted, so I practically gasped when I saw SpaceNK's 20% discount for Black Friday. I'll be stocking up on a bottle of Mojave Ghost, a musky, woody scent that gets guaranteed compliments whenever I wear it. It's the perfect time to invest in a bottle that you've had your eye on, or stock up on your signature scent.

I'm constantly on the lookout for the perfect leggings, and I've just found them. With a stretchy feel and second-skin look, these will be my next go-to.

I love these sleek suede loafers for days when I want something smarter than trainers but just as comfortable.

This coat is calling my name. The leopard print, the silhouette, the vintage feel, it’s such a statement winter piece.

If there’s one beauty tool that I recommend to everyone I know, it’s the Dyson Airstrait. This clever device simultaneously dries and straightens your hair in one go, meaning my post-shower styling time is cut in half every time I use it. It’s not normally on sale, so I couldn’t believe it when I saw that Dyson is offering £150 off this Black Friday.

Glossier You is one of those fragrances that I know will remain in my collection for years to come, thanks to its timeless appeal. However, this winter I've got my eyes on Glossier You Doux, a warm and woody version of the brand’s signature scent. That’s why I’m snapping it up in Space NK’s Black Friday sale.

I had no idea that Aesop products would be on sale this Black Friday, so I practically screamed with excitement when I saw my favourite hand soap on sale. I’m buying one for everyone I know this Christmas, and I’m also stocking up for when I move house next year.

I love the idea of a reversible jacket, and this one is so chic. One coat, two aesthetics; it’s basically double the value.

This is the kitchen upgrade I keep adding to my basket. Sleek, easy and also chic, I know my mornings would be much better with it.

I’ve wanted a tennis bracelet for ages, and this one is perfection—delicate, sparkly and beautifully refined.
