I Shop for a Living—15 Wardrobe Staples in My Cart Ahead of Amazon Prime Big Deal Days
Amazon’s latest sale is coming up—the Amazon Prime Big Deal Days—which runs from October 7 through 8. While I don’t always shop on Amazon, I’m always curious to see what people are getting whenever there’s a sale.
Since I online-shop for work, I’m often sifting through hundreds of products to find what’s worth it. When Amazon has a sale, I treat it as a chance to pick up some essentials I always keep in my closet (like Hanes boys tank tops).
I usually start by looking through the markdowns from Levi’s, Gap, and Shopbop. We don’t know exactly what will be included in the sale just yet, but I like to get ahead by by pre-filling my cart with things I’m considering. Here’s what’s sitting in there now—from Miaou to Leset.
