A sweatshirt that feels as comfy as your PJs but looks like a million bucks? This top is just oozing with rich-mom energy. (Amazon)(Amazon)
Have you seen the term "rich mom style" floating around social media? The trend refers to a timeless, effortlessly put-together aesthetic that looks luxurious and expensive but doesn't necessarily have to break the bank. Case in point: the Automet Half-Zip Pullover, which is the epitome of "chic mom running errands" attire. Many reviewers say it's a dead ringer for the popular Lululemon Scuba, which retails for $118. The Automet, on the other hand, is on sale for a fourth of that in some sizes and colors for Black Friday. Turns out "rich mom" is also fashionably frugal!
Garrity says, "I know, I know, gloves aren't exactly the most novel gift idea, but they're one of those things that we all need to refresh every couple of winters. These fleece-lined favorites are just as practical as they are pretty: One Amazon shopper raved that 'the fur cuff is perfect and looks expensive,' while another mentioned that they 'kept my hands warm during my trip to the northeast and in cold weather.' The best of both worlds, eh?"
That 66% discount isn't too shabby, either...

Yahoo Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini swears by this frizz-reducing bestseller.
"Every once in a while a popular internet-famous product comes along that I think will never in 100 years work and then am pleasantly surprised (OK, more like shocked) when it does," she admits. "Such was the case with this strange little tube of the TikTok-famous collagen and protein hair mask from Elizavecca.
It's a repairing treatment that's meant to render even the driest, most straw-like hair into silky strands. You work it into your hair after shampooing and, after 5–15 minutes, the before-and-after is seriously profound: my thin, dry, longtime dyed-blonde mane was bouncy, soft and smooth as a satin sheet and, best of all, didn't feel weighed down. Though it does make your hair slightly greasier than normal, the conditioning impact is worth it — my results lasted for weeks."
While not the largest discount, you can't argue with paying just seven bucks for a tube!

Another product Romolini's become a fan of? This popular eye-area tightener.
"I've been loving this extra-firming eye cream from Derma E, a truly quality brand that makes natural, vegan and cruelty-free products that won't cost you a week's pay," she says. "Made of skin-revitalizing ingredients like copper peptides and plant stem cells, it's clinically proven to improve elasticity, firmness and lighten a darker under-eye skin tone. I especially like it for my upper eyelids, where I've seen a noticeable difference in improved texture over just a few weeks."
This isn't the lowest it's ever been, but at over 40% off, it's still a deal worth considering.
This multiuse hair tool works like the Dyson Airwrap — only at a fraction of the cost.
It comes with three brush heads and a blow-dryer attachment to suit all hair types, whether you want to smooth and straighten or add curl and waves. Now you'll be able to give yourself a professional-level blowout while saving 75% — you're looking at one of the lowest-ever prices we've seen it on sale for.
This sweatshirt has been on sale a few times, but the chic light heather gray and other neutrals like Coffee Grey are down to $24 right now, a savings of about 55%. Several other colors are within a few bucks of that price too — not too shabby.
Most sweatshirts, though comfy, tend to be rather shapeless, but the Automet has a more elevated structure, with details that set it apart. It's slightly cropped for a fitted appearance, and the on-trend half-zip style has more flair than your standard crewneck.
There's a front pocket for warming up your hands, and thumb holes on the wrists help keep the sleeves from sliding around. Because it's fleece-lined, it'll make a cozy, warm layer under a jacket when the temps drop, though you could wear it over a tank on still-warm fall days.
It comes in more than 30 colors, including everything from classic neutrals to fun brights. Reviewers say it generally runs true to size, but might be a little big depending on how oversized or fitted you prefer your clothes.
Just how popular is this sweatshirt? Well, it's a mega-seller on Amazon and has more than 2,000 five-star ratings.
"Great quality," raved one satisfied shopper. "So soft and comfy. Rivals Lululemon for a fraction of the price. Highly recommend."
"This is such a flattering fit and so comfy," swooned another. "It is cropped, but if you have high-waisted pants or wear a tank underneath, your belly is safe from showing. So warm."
"Love this sweatshirt so much that I'm considering buying it in other colors," shared a third. "No pilling or fading after washing so far. I basically live in this sweatshirt at home. I love the thumbholes as well."
"My only complaint is the zipper pull is overactive," wrote an otherwise pleased buyer. "Like, bounces around nonstop and makes a little jingling sound." That said, they added, "This sweatshirt is super soft and I like it perhaps a little more than the Lululemon Oversized Scuba. It's a better fit on me and lighter than the Scuba, so easier to wear, but still cozy and warm enough. It's very soft inside!"
Several reviewers had the same note as this final fan, who said, "One small drawback is that it is somewhat short if you are tall. Overall, though, I love this sweatshirt."
