12 Affordable Essentials Worth Adding To Your Cart During Amazon's Prime Day Sale

There's no better time to revamp your wardrobe.
12 Affordable Essentials Worth Adding To Your Cart During Amazon’s Prime Day Sale
By Jailynn Taylor · Updated July 8, 2022

It’s that time of year again for Amazon’s biggest sale. Amazon Prime Day is set for July 12 and 13, so mark your calendars. While we await the major sales drop from electronics to beauty products, Amazon has already launched a few early sales worth taking advantage of ahead of the deal-heavy event. If you have your eye on certain items, now is the time to start loading up your cart as products have already begun dropping in price. If you feel like items may drop lower on the day of the sale, it’s okay to hold on checking out.

If you are currently in the market for a wardrobe refresh, now is a great time to take advantage of the Prime Day deals and swap out pieces that no longer spark joy. Elevated essentials are a way to bring new life to your closet without feeling like you have nothing to wear. It doesn’t have to be anything extraordinary, but the small details can make all the difference in the gravitation for a piece. Try unique silhouettes that aren’t traditional to that style of garment for more visual interest. If you want to take things to the next level, experiment with injecting more color and prints into your basics. Color and print play can take an outfit from a snooze fest to a head-turner.

We have compiled 12 pieces that are currently on sale ahead of Amazon Prime Day that are worth elevating your basics to.
