Tis the season to shower gifts on those you love. One of my love languages is gift giving. I love picking out the perfect present that will bring actual joy to the people in my life.
And we need joy more than ever right now. There are so many black friday deals and cyber monday and who knows what else! It’s overwhelming! So here’s my curated guide, with EYP classics at the end! Most links are affiliate, which means I earn a comission but you pay nothing more.

Classic EYP faves
THE BRA: My fave Bra comes in sheer (breezy, comfy, shockingly suportive), solid with removable cups (perfect for t-shirts, great support), full coverage with thin straps (great for modesty in a sleveless top, and comes with a sheer back, super comfortable and very supportive!), or in a clasping bralette that has internal wire-free supports (best for DDD but not G, IMO).
I’ll also note there underwear is great if you don’t want to show lines, becuase it usese a flocked edge instead of a rubber edge … it is actually comfortable and full coverage.
There’s two sales coming up:
30% off sidewide Black Friday - 11/29 + 11/30, using my links
BOGO Cyber Monday - 12/2 + 12/3 using code SHOPMYBOGO
AMERICAN EAGLE: I’m actaully a big AE fan and they’ve started their black friday sale already (40%). The supperrr soft jumpsuit is under $40, I wore it on a plane recently over this silky long sleeve shirt, and it was perfect. Whenever I wear a logo tee people ask where it’s from, I just size up here.
SPF 50 MAKEUP: I wanted some serious sun protection without the need to put makeup over it, this stuff rubs in with a great finish on my skin and is SPF 50!! I purchased a matching concealer just because - but now it’s an every day thing. It’s light on the skin but a dense cream so it stays put. They have a really pretty lip oil, I do not like sticky glosses, this is a great alternative for the look without the texture.
These gifts aren’t just for other people. You deserve nice things right now too. Treat yourself this December, get cozy on the couch and rest up to save Democracy next year.
She did disclose! Also YAY weighted blanket I’ve been wanting one
Hi, Emily. Please start disclosing affiliate and commissionable links/codes both here and on IG as required by the FTC. It's disappointing to see content that flouts regulatory obligations. I think we're all happy to support you, but it's important that we as consumers be made conspicuously aware of incentives in order to make informed judgments. I see you've added a blanket disclaimer at the top of this post, which I appreciate, but I don't recall ever seeing disclosure on your IG stories/posts. Both commissionable codes and affiliate links need to be disclosed every time they appear. Thanks!
