Shoppers lining up early for Black Friday super sales.

Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving and is known as the biggest shopping day of the year in America.  It also officially kicks off the holiday shopping season.  Retailers entice shoppers by having “doorbuster” deals where there is extra savings or a free gift during a limited amount of time — normally in the wee hours of the morning.  I’m talking like 4:30am.  Some shoppers even line up outside stores the night before to get in on these deals.  But don’t be scared off by the crowds, Black Friday is a great day for shopping.  You just need to prepare and know where to go and what you can handle.

Last year I appeared on Oregon’s CBS KOIN 5 to 7am morning show on Black Friday from the Washington Square shopping center.  I was on the newscast giving viewers tips on how to make the best of Black Friday with some holiday gift ideas.  Check out those videos for some shopping ideas as ‘Tis the season to be shopping!

Fox 11 News Anchor Randall White and I just after our Vampire Chic fashion segment taping.

Twilight’s New Moon opened up on Friday and I visited Fox 11 KFFX to show a “darker side of style” and how you too can dress like the movie’s stars… or show off who you support with Team Edward and Team Jacob t shirts.  Anchors Patti Piburn and Randall White are always so fun to work with and I’ll be back in a few weeks with a holiday gift guide segment.   Take a look at a few Vampire Chic fashion looks we highlighted in the news cast below.
