Local Austin Black Friday Deals

If you are all about the crazy deals of Black Friday, my suggestion is that you shouldn't forget about some of the local stores. Although the big chains that can usually be found in a mall are the stores that probably have the biggest sales, there are a couple local favorites that have some deals to consider. And the major benefit of shopping local on this crazy day is that you probably won't have to punch your way through the crowds, AND you might find some gifts to give that not everyone and their mom will open on Christmas day. Don't be scared by Black Friday.

At Soigne Boutique you can draw a discount out of Santa's hat and receive either 15%, 20%, or 25% off your purchase! This starts Friday, but is also happening Saturday as well.

Adelante has just marked down a bunch of their merchandise. The markdowns range from 30 - 70% off.

And if you want some By George savings, check them out next week. That is when their big holiday sale will start.

If y'all know of any other local Black Friday deals going on, post a comment!

Good luck with your holiday shopping! And have a great turkey day!

keep austin stylish

Fun Fashion Find

It's time for another fun fashion find. But I really think this one should be titled "Ridiculous Fashion Find."

What's more ridiculous than a dog wearing clothes? A dog wearing a snuggie! Yes, this is a snuggie...for dogs...



And just for the record, I don't consider snuggies to be clothes. Please don't wear these in public, or ever.

By George Texas Tailgate


If you're not really "one of the boys" then why not embrace it? Before the UT game this Saturday, instead of drinking beer in a parking lot, you can sip a cocktail at By George. By George is having a "stylegate" before the football game this Saturday November 21 from 11am - 4pm. It's the perfect time to get some stylish UT game day wear.

And since the game doesn't start til 7pm then you still have some time to hit up a traditional tailgate with the boys. At least this way you will look cute doing so.

*forgot to mention earlier, this is at their north lamar store*

Sola Fashion Show Sneak Peek!

Here is a small behind the scenes look at the upcoming Sola Fashion Gate show. Several new holiday dresses will be making their debut on the runway this Thursday night, and here is a special preview of 2 of those dresses.

The first one is a personal favorite of mine as it is very elegant but at the same time fashion forward and fun. And check out the very "Where the Wild Things Are" inspired white furry animal ears hat!


I guess cosplay is making it's way into mainstream fashion?... I can't really complain.

If you want to see what outfits the SoLa gals have put together with these pieces, as well as many many more fabulous fashions, make sure you come out to the South Lamar store this Thursday at 8pm.

RSVP here to get in for free, or it is $5 at the door!
