The Company Store's Black Friday Sale Targets the Viral 'Ralph Lauren Christmas' Décor Trend
Tartan, red accents, twinkling lights and greenery, with a deadline attached
Mark
So what is this story actually about? A decorating trend, or a sale?
Mimi
Both, and the sale is the point. The trend gives the shopping a theme: tartan, red accents, twinkling lights, greenery.
Mark
What do shoppers actually get?
Mimi
Code BFDEALS25 gives either up to an extra 40% off certain items through November 28, or 25% off $100 or more through November 9.
Luke
Worth noting that the 40% is "up to," and only on select items. The article doesn't say which items or how many qualify.
Mark
And the trend itself? Is it big?
Luke
The article says it's viral and taking over social media, but gives no numbers. That's an assertion, not a measurement.
Mimi
The products are what's concrete: a pre-lit wreath and garland, stockings, a plaid throw, a tablecloth, a reversible tree skirt.
Mark
Anything odd in the details?
Luke
The dates. The article says Black Friday is November 29, yet the sale ends November 28 and is described as running through a Friday. I'd check that with the retailer.
Mimi
Also, the piece discloses that the USA Today Network may earn a commission on links, so it's a shopping recommendation, not neutral reporting.
Mark
So the takeaway is the deadlines?
Mimi
Yes. November 9 comes first, and it's close.
Il Polso
- A viral holiday décor look is pulling shoppers toward tartan, red and twinkling lights before the season has fully arrived.
- The Company Store's discount code BFDEALS25 offers up to 40% off select items or 25% off orders of $100 or more, with two very different deadlines.
- The 25% order offer closes on November 9, leaving only days for anyone hoping to use it.
- The larger 40% discount runs through November 28, giving shoppers a longer window to build their holiday look.
- Shoppers are being urged to act quickly and to confirm dates directly with the retailer, since the calendar details in coverage are not fully consistent.
Each autumn the calendar tightens and the idea of a warm, storied home grows more appealing, and this year a social media aesthetic called Ralph Lauren Christmas, built on tartan, red accents, lights and greenery, has drawn a retailer into its orbit. The Company Store, offering plaids, throws and seasonal décor, has framed a Black Friday sale around that longing for cozy sophistication, with discounts that carry their own clock: one expiring early in November, the other lasting into late November. It is a small commercial moment, but it shows how people reach for comfort and tradition through the things they bring into their rooms.
A holiday décor look called Ralph Lauren Christmas is spreading across social media, and The Company Store has built its Black Friday sale around it. The promotion, covered by Jessica Moore for USA Today, runs through Friday, November 28, and rests on one discount code: BFDEALS25.
The style is easy to picture: tartan, pops of red, twinkling lights and greenery, arranged to make a home feel like a scene from a holiday movie. The retailer's statement pieces are presented as the way to reach that warm, nostalgic look.
The code unlocks one of two offers. An extra 40% off select items lasts through November 28. The other, 25% off orders of $100 or more, ends much sooner, on November 9, leaving shoppers only days from the article's publication.
The plaid appears throughout the lineup, from a russet, navy, green and gold holiday throw to a red and green plaid tablecloth and a flannel bed sheet set. Wreaths, garland and stockings add the frosted pine and holly touches, while a reversible tree skirt and ornaments from the Heather Taylor Flower line bring red plaid and floral prints together in a cottage style.
The piece also marks Black Friday as the official start of holiday shopping, though its date details are not fully consistent, so readers may want to confirm them with the retailer. As with most shopping coverage, the USA Today Network may earn a commission on purchases made through its links, and prices may change. The dates to watch are November 9 and November 28.
A holiday décor look called "Ralph Lauren Christmas" is spreading across social media, and The Company Store has built a Black Friday sale around it. The retailer's promotion, written up by Jessica Moore for USA Today, runs through Friday, November 28, and leans on a single discount code: BFDEALS25.
The aesthetic itself is easy to picture. It is defined by what the article calls cozy sophistication: tartan, pops of red, twinkling lights and greenery, arranged to make a home resemble a scene from a Hallmark movie. The piece frames the look as warm and nostalgic, and presents The Company Store's statement pieces and accents as a way to get there.
The code unlocks one of two offers on select purchases. The first is up to an extra 40% off certain items, valid through November 28. The second is 25% off an order of $100 or more, but that one expires much sooner, on November 9. Anyone planning to use the smaller-threshold discount has only days from the article's publication on November 7.
The article lists several products that fit the theme. The Pre-Lit Frosted Swiss Pine Wreath is made with pine foliage and frosted holly berries and is meant for a wall, door or entryway. A matching Pre-Lit Frosted Swiss Pine Garland adds holly berries and a light dusting of snow. The Legends Luxury Holiday Stocking comes in four designs: winter berries, holiday trees, reindeer or birds.
The plaid is most visible in the textiles. The LoftAIRE Down Alternative Holiday Throw is a plaid in russet, navy, green and gold, filled with The Company Store's exclusive down alternative. The Clara Plaid Yarn-Dyed Tablecloth has a classic red and green plaid for holiday gatherings. For the bedroom, there is a Classic Ultra-Cozy Cotton Velvet Flannel Bed Sheet Set, described as 100% cotton, warm and durable.
Three pieces come from the Heather Taylor Flower line and share a cottage-inspired look. The reversible tree skirt is 100% cotton, with red plaid on one side and a floral print on the other. A set of three 100% cotton ornaments mixes red plaid and floral prints for a rustic effect.
The piece also addresses the calendar. Black Friday falls on the Friday after Thanksgiving, and the article calls it the official start of the holiday shopping season. It gives the date as November 29, though the sale's own end date of November 28 is described as running through a Friday, so readers may want to confirm dates directly with the retailer.
As with most shopping coverage of this kind, the piece carries a disclosure: the USA Today Network may earn a commission on purchases made through its links, and prices were accurate at publication but may change. The dates to watch are November 9 for the 25% offer and November 28 for the larger discount.
