It’s Black Friday, and if you are reading this, that means you are missing out on the 42″ plasma screen TV at Walmart that just got marked down from $199 to $10. Well . . . maybe not exactly. Black Friday is a long standing retailer tradition since the 1960s. The term “Black Friday” was coined to mark the kickoff to the Christmas shopping season. And it is the biggest shopping day of the year in the United States. The best deals are supposed to be displayed and some of the most outrageous people show up trying to get the last cabbage patch doll (I know, I’m dating myself a bit).

To the retail industry, Black Friday is all about escaping from the red to the black, and making a profit. Which really means: “Show me the money!” Be it Gold or Silver, metals are the currency of Black Friday.

Thanks Pam for sparking this Black Friday Imagination Board. I present you black and metallic, every retailers dream! Are you Platinum, Gold, or Titanium?

All the dresses are from an amazing designer I discovered when researching this imagination board, Mexican born couture designer, Alberto Rodriguez. I fell so in love with his designs, I stopped looking at any other dresses!
