With 30 percent off or more on some of our favorite runway pieces, we're getting an early start on our holiday shopping. For, uh, others. Of course.

To nab the best discounts, plan to start shopping a little earlier this holiday season.

At this rate, they should give out free turkey legs at the entrance.

It wasn't a good weekend for U.S. retailers, particularly those of the brick-and-mortar variety.

With Thanksgiving and other holidays during which one makes/eats a lot of home-cooked meals coming up, we thought this would be the perfect time to round up the most stylish cooking gear. From aprons to oven mitts, click through for some super cute items even the cooking-averse will want to wear.

Thanksgiving is almost here and you know what that means: Time to tie on your apron, put on some stretchy elastic band pants and start cooking (and eating!) with your loved ones. In celebration of the holiday, we asked our favorite fashion people to share their most beloved Thanksgiving recipes with us. After all, this holiday is about sharing. From Karlie Kloss's mouth-watering cookies to Billy Reid's Southern grits and Simon Doonan's festive pumpkin pie, read on for sixteen Thanksgiving recipes from fashion's VIP.

Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Brown Thursday--all the sales days associated with Thanksgiving are starting to blend together into one big giant shopping-fest. It feels like the anxiety of getting the best deals has replaced the anxiety of roasting the perfect bird (and having to chat with your drunk uncle). Don't worry--we're here to help.

A little Twitter birdy told us that Versace is designing the costumes for Lady Gaga's Born This Way Ball Tour (okay, the birdy was Gaga herself). {Twitter} Penelope Cruz sizzles in red for the 2013 Campari calendar. {Fashion Gone Rogue} An increasing number of retailers will be open on Thanksgiving Day in a trend that business insiders are referring to as "Black Thursday." {WWD, subscription required}

Following a public outcry from Native Americans and non-Natives alike, Victoria's Secret decided to pull Karlie Kloss's overtly insensitive sexy Indian chief ensemble from the televised broadcast of its annual fashion show next month.

Thanksgiving is a notoriously hard holiday to dress for because it requires sitting at a dinner table for hours with relatives who you only see once a year while simultaneously trying to consume unreasonable amounts of food and/or liquor. This presents a unique problem: dressing to impress your distant family while maintaining a level of comfort that is conducive to eating and sitting for long periods of time. While we all know Thanksgiving isn't the time to break out our best Carine Roitfeld-inspired look--too tight for face-stuffing!--finding a fashionable alternative to sweats can be difficult. We've pulled together the most stylish items that are comfy, chic, and won't disturb your proper Grandma. (So don't wear your Balenciaga Darth Vader visor, ok?) Of course our list includes Stella McCartney, the legendary mixer of casual and elegant, our favorite button downs from Madewell, a hat trick of cute shoes, and a Céline t-shirt--because a girl can dream, right?
