Charleston had me in a chokehold (again), so naturally I said “why not?” to 24 more hours in my favorite city 💕 We hit all our fave spots, soaked in every last bit of charm, and it was so worth it. Now back to reality… and counting down to the next getaway (even if it’s a long wait 😅)

Before it slips away, I had to share one more dose of Christmas in July magic! ✨🎄
Every year, one of my favorite holiday traditions is turning my coffee bar into a cozy little hot cocoa bar, and it seriously brings all the festive feels.
There’s just something so magical about sipping hot cocoa by the glow of a Christmas tree, even if it’s 90 degrees outside! 😍☕️
Bring on the marshmallows and twinkle lights, cozy season is always welcome here.
Who says festive drinks are just for December?! 🎄✨
These pomegranate rosemary ice cubes are one of my favorite holiday hacks, and they’re too pretty not to use year-round.
They instantly turn sparkling water into a chic little mocktail, and they look absolutely magical as they melt! 😍
So of course I had to bring them out for Christmas in July!
You can swap in cranberries too, so many fun combos to try!

Honestly? Might “accidentally” knock a few more off the vine just to make another batch 😏

Target Black Friday Deals

Black Friday seems to be a little different this year and a lot of stores are rolling out their deals online much sooner than normal. I thought I would share with you all some of Target’s Black Friday Deals going on now so you don’t miss out.

Target is one of my favorite stores and I often order a lot of Christmas gifts from them. And since shipping is taking longer than normal too, now would be the perfect time to start a little early Christmas shopping!

Target Black Friday Deals
Pin for Later!

Black Friday Deals For The Home

I love gifts that can be both useful and practical so I thought I would include a big list of that first. Target has definitely included a bunch of them on their Black Friday sales this year!

Kitchen Appliances

Kitchen appliances are always one of my go to’s for Christmas gifts. I always love gifting them and receiving them as well. One year, my mom and I got each other the same exact Instant Pot as a gift!

And she got one for her mom too! So obviously great minds think alike and here are some great kitchen appliances to choose from.

Vacuums And Floor Care

I would absolutely love to get a robotic vacuum for the home! Wouldn’t you?? And I saw that they have a robotic floor mop on sale too! How awesome is that?!

I didn’t even know that was a thing! That would save me so much time cleaning our annoying dark floors that show absolutely everything!

Other Home Items

I also think a Ring Doorbell or Amazon Echo Dot would make a great gift too! Those seem to be all the rage right now and I am sure they would make a perfect gift for anyone on your list.

Black Friday Deals in Electronics

Electronics are always a great thing to get during Black Friday sales! From TVs to Cameras, I have listed some of the best deals for you.

That way you can get the perfect gift for a tech lover in your life.

TVs

I’m pretty sure most of the TVs we own came from previous Target Black Friday sales. I mean how can you resist a good price on a TV?! And you can always use a newer, bigger TV right?!

Laptops

A laptop would be such an amazing gift for Christmas, especially for any bloggers out there. And thankfully Target has some killer Black Friday deals on theirs below:

Cameras

I think this year for Christmas I am asking for a nice camera. I would love to have a higher end camera to work on my blog photos more.

I currently just use my iPhone so I would love to be able to upgrade and learn how to take more professional photos!

Smart Watches

My hubby surprised me with an Apple Watch last year for Christmas and I have been loving it all year so far.

My favorite thing about those are all the fun straps that you can use and interchange. I love being able to take it from casual to dressy with just a change of the strap!

I used to be a huge Fitbit lover too so I included some options for that as well as some other beautiful smart watch options.

Headphones

I need to get some new headphones and thankfully Target’s Black Friday deals are awesome this year. Check them out for yourselves!

Black Friday Deals For Clothes

Women’s Boots

All of Target’s boots are BOGO right now which is such an incredible deal. I absolutely love Target’s shoe collection and I have several from them currently. I also continue to buy them as well.

I wouldn’t mind a pair or two for Christmas and this would be a perfect gift for a fashion lover this Christmas!

Women’s Jeans

This may be one of the best Target Black Friday Deals going on right now. Women’s jeans for only $15! Say what?! You better run and order you some right now!

Perfect for gifts or just for yourself too!

Women’s Jackets

They also have their puffer jackets on sale too. Most of them are only around $25 which is an amazing price for a big jacket like that!

Men’s Shoes

The same BOGO deal applies for men’s shoes too! They have a great selection to choose from, including many casual and/or work shoes as well.

Men’s Jeans

My hubby loves Target’s jeans so I had to share a few that were on sale with you too. They aren’t as cheap as the Women’s Jeans, but still a very good price for a great pair of jeans!

Conclusion

Hopefully this post was a little helpful for you this season. I hope it helped outlined all of the best Target Black Friday Deals going on.
Are you shopping black Friday deals this year?! If so, what is the main thing you are looking for? Let me know below!

    I’ve been looking at various Black Friday ads that have come out and some of the deals are pretty good, and it’s great that a lot of them are now online too so we don’t have to risk big crowds, etc. The items you’ve included here are a really good selection — makes looking for deals way easier!

    These are some great options. I have been seriously considering purchasing a robotic vacuum for a while now. With 4 pets in the house, I feel like I am CONSTANTLY cleaning up pet hair. Having a robotic unit like that would save me a lot of hassle.

Here’s a little Christmas in July baking hack f Here’s a little Christmas in July  baking hack for you!! Bake your desserts early, before you actually need them, and then freeze them!! We all know how busy the holidays can get and the last thing you wanna do is to have to bake another dessert! That way, you just have to lay them out in the fridge the night before! I’ve been doing this for years and it always saves me so much time!

Can you believe July is almost over?! 😱 Before Can you believe July is almost over?! 😱
Before it slips away, I had to share one more dose of Christmas in July magic! ✨🎄
Every year, one of my favorite holiday traditions is turning my coffee bar into a cozy little hot cocoa bar, and it seriously brings all the festive feels.
There’s just something so magical about sipping hot cocoa by the glow of a Christmas tree, even if it’s 90 degrees outside! 😍☕️
Bring on the marshmallows and twinkle lights, cozy season is always welcome here.
Who says festive drinks are just for December?! 🎄✨
These pomegranate rosemary ice cubes are one of my favorite holiday hacks, and they’re too pretty not to use year-round.
They instantly turn sparkling water into a chic little mocktail, and they look absolutely magical as they melt! 😍
So of course I had to bring them out for Christmas in July!
You can swap in cranberries too, so many fun combos to try!
Get the easy how-to on the blog:

Time to make your drinks a little more merry & bright! Even in July!
Is it even late summer if you’re not already dre Is it even late summer if you’re not already dreaming of Starbucks fall drinks?! 🍁🍎
I don’t go often, but once those cozy fall flavors hit the menu, I’m there daily.
So while we all impatiently wait, I decided to make my own Apple Oatmilk Macchiato at home… and y’all, it tastes just like the real deal!

One of my little tomatoes popped off the vine while I was fixing the trellis (rude). But listen, I’ve put way too much love into these raised beds to let anything go to waste. So I sliced it up, fried it Southern-style, and WOW… crispy, tangy, perfection.
Honestly? Might “accidentally” knock a few more off the vine just to make another batch 😏

Call me unhinged, but I’m deep into Christmas in July and I’m not sorry about it. Twinkle lights, cozy vibes, hot cocoa (okay, iced cocoa) ☕️ I want it all.
If you’re craving a little festive magic in the middle of summer, you’re in the right place. Come obsess over Christmas decor and cozy inspo with me, the AC is blasting and the nostalgia is real. ❄️✨
