As a small business owner, Shop Small Saturday is an initiative I am sincerely thankful for. I am absolutely thrilled that this movement has made such a big impact in the retail world and it’s humbling to see so many small shops come together so that we can all succeed and flourish together.
When you shop small, you’re helping your local economy grow and prosper, and someone on the other end of your purchase is doing a happy dance [yes, I speak from personal experience on this one]. I especially love to support other small shops during the holidays… Shop Local, Eat Local, Spend Local and Enjoy Local!
Today I wanted to be sure to share a few of my favorite small businesses with you:
DIFF Eyewear | A company that gives back in every sense of the word. For EVERY pair of sunnies sold, they gift a pair of reading glasses to someone in need. I’ve been exclaiming my love for this brand for months and I continue to love so many of their styles: favorites include the Bella, the Jessie James Decker Collection, and the Lauren Akins Rose Gold style, too.
Shop Val’s Boutique | My fellow girl boss kills it in everything she does and she’s one to watch in the online arena… favorites from my go-to East TN boutique include this Silver Sparkle Wrap, Wine Down Wednesday Top, and Fall Striped Cape. Use code SHOPSMALL25 to save 25% on your purchase today, too!!
Taylor Elliott Designs | Colorful accessories + stationery, gifts and goodies that will brighten any stocking this holiday season. Looking for a must-have teacher present?? These Best Teacher Magnetic List + Pencil Sets are SO cute, yet fun and totally out of the box! Everything is also 25% off this weekend with code HIPHIPHOLIDAY.
Darby Drake Jewelry | One of my fellow Christmas Village vendors and friends, this amazing mama does it all and each piece of this gorgeous jewelry is handmade by Lauren… oh so talented with unique creations you can’t find anywhere else! Visit her Instagram shop or Facebook page, send her a DM and mention Hello Happiness, and she’ll take 20% off your purchase this week.
CottonMill Nashville | Candice and I have been retail friends for a few years now, and she is someone I am proud to know. She is always encouraging, always helping others fulfill their dreams, and is a great wife, mom and philanthropist. Visit her website for amazing apparel and accessories for yourself, and a few other gals on your Christmas list!
ABLE | A women’s lifestyle brand that offers a range of beautiful leather goods, denim, jewelry and shoes. Even better, it’s based in my hometown and their Abera Leather Tote is hands down my favorite carryall. They also truly make a difference by working with women who have overcome extraordinary circumstances and create jobs to help give these women a say in their own economic future. Save 15-30% online this weekend!!
O-Venture Key Ring [shown in Cotton Candy and 20% off] | ABLE Leather Tote | DIFF Aviators | Every Last Lie Book
Ragen Jewels | I just got this GORGEOUS holiday swoon-worthy Cocktail Ring a few weeks ago and cannot wait to wear it for Christmas and dressy occasions coming up! Even better, my friends at Ragen have been kind enough to offer my friends 40% off their order this week with code THANKS40 at checkout. If you’re looking for loved ones to gift some glamour, check out the Pyramid Necklace, Gold and Crystal Cuff, or these Leaf Ear Jacket Earrings.
Sugar Bit | And finally, I can’t help but share my little shop of baby + child + tween wonderment… a happy online storefront savoring all the best for the little ones you love most. Shop with us all weekend and we’ll take 25% off your entire order with code SAVE25.
Alright friends… this gal is taking a little break for the rest of the weekend. Shop smartly, do good work, and come back bright AND early Monday morning for the best in everything Cyber Monday shopping!!! It’s going to be the BIGGEST and BEST one yet 😉
