It’s that time again! Amazon Prime Day is happening this July 11th & 12th.

With so many products and deals to choose from, I know that Amazon Prime Day can be overwhelming. That’s why, in this post, I’m going to help you sift through the noise to find the best Prime deals on Amazon that make sense for you and your lifestyle.

I’ve made this post pretty easy to navigate – separating out my top picks by category. So whether you’re looking for travel accessories, fashion picks, home decor, pet products, or something completely random, I’ve found the deals and I’ve got you covered. I’ve done my research and am including the best products in this round-up that are both affordable and worth it.

Oh! One more reminder…to get these great deals you need to be an Amazon Prime member. So if you haven’t signed up yet, click this link to become an Amazon Prime member now. (PS: you can try Amazon Prime free for 30 days before committing to a membership.)

Beach Picks

It’s summertime so I wanted to kick things off with everything you need for fun-filled days at the beach.

Make a statement with this color-block one-piece bathing suit. Or try this cutout scallop trim bathing suit. Top it off with this wide-brimmed, raffia hat and my favorite classic, square sunglasses.

Did I mention I’m obsessed with this beach coverup? It is so chic and summery and yep, it’s on sale for Amazon Prime Day!

You can’t go wrong with these waterproof Birkenstock knock-off sandals that come in every color! (They are the white ones I’m wearing in the above photo.) My favorite beach towels are these oversized Turkish ones which are super lightweight and can do double duty as a beach sarong.

I’m also totally in love with our Corkcicle canteen. It’s our go-to for transporting wine to the beach without having to worry about carrying glass bottles. Last but not least, my husband and I got tired of trying to secure umbrellas in the sand, especially on windy days, so now we just use this beach tent instead, and let me tell you, it is a game changer!

Fashion Finds

A tropical inspired dress I found on Amazon

I always feel so excited when I stumble across a good fashion find on Amazon. It’s like I’m on the hunt and when I find something fun and affordable, it’s so satisfying. And more often than not, I find great fashion deals on Amazon. Here’s a short list of some of the great fashion deals you can find right now during Amazon Prime Day.

I love a two-piece look and this shorts and tank option is perfect for summer. Also, let’s talk dresses because Amazon has some good ones! This gingham summer dress is perfect for a picnic in the park. Or get this tropical-inspired dress for your next beach vacation.

merry-at-paradero-hotel-pool-todos-santos-mexico

I bought this orange 2-piece outfit on Amazon last year for our trip to the Paradero Hotel in Todos Santos, Mexico and it’s still a staple piece in my wardrobe! And yes, it comes in multiple colors and patterns.

I love a night out on the town but also want to look cute when I’m sitting on the couch, streaming Netflix. This tie-dye sweatshirt and sweatpants are my go-to cozy at-home outfit.

Once fall hits, I’ll be reaching for these ankle boots that I’ve had on repeat since the moment I bought them. (They came in handy on our recent road trip through the American Southwest!)

Home Decor

I’m always amazed at how many cool and chic items I can find on Amazon for my home. There are actually quite a few things in our apartment that are from Amazon including the chair in the photo above! As you can tell, I’m very into beige and white organic pieces these days which is why I also bought the set of 2 modern ceramic vases on the gold end table.

Sticking with the beige and white theme, these porcelain serving bowls are great for when you’re entertaining. I also love this decorative wood bead garland which you can put in a bowl or on top of a pile of books.

This is the only candle I keep in our guest bathroom and I constantly get compliments about it.

We considered getting the wall-mount ladder bookshelf from CB2 but when I saw it on Amazon for about half the price, it was a no-brainer. It’s made by Nathan James, a company on Amazon that I clearly like because I also purchased this modern storage accent cabinet as well.

These organizer boxes are a game changer when it comes to hiding all of your computer and electronics cables and this Himalayan Salt Lamp has been in our household for years. These lamps aren’t just pretty to look at, they actually help to purify the air!

I have accepted the fact that we can’t keep fresh flowers in our home because of our cats (many plants and flowers are actually toxic for your pets) so I’ve embraced artificial flowers and branches. Thanks to Grace Atwood’s recommendation, I bought these artificial lemon branches and LOVE the splash of color they add to our living space.

Travel Accessories

You know that I love to travel so I would be remiss if I didn’t share some of my top travel finds with you for Amazon Prime Day.

First up, this new Samsonite suitcase my husband and I got, which we love. It’s an expandable carry-on. We also got the medium size luggage for longer trips when we need to check a bag. We got both in Caribbean blue which is actually quite helpful when you’re looking for your bag at baggage claim! I used to not pack a lot of jewelry for my trips until I found this small and portable jewelry case. This clear makeup/toiletry bag is perfect for traveling and is also TSA approved.

Don’t even get me started about the packing cubes I have from Amazon. They are a game changer when it comes to packing. I highly recommend investing in a set if you haven’t done so already. I promise you, once you get packing cubes, you will never go back to packing the other way!

And the one thing I never travel without now is my Bose noise-canceling in-ear headphones that you can also use when sleeping. The earbuds fit into your ears in such a way that it’s totally comfortable even with your head against the pillow.

For Your Pets

My husband and I have 3 cats and a dog so Amazon has been a real lifesaver for our household when it comes to all of our pet needs. But aside from the normal day-to-day stuff like poop bags and food, we’ve found quite a few amazing pet accessories on Amazon, so I wanted to share the ones that are now on sale for Amazon Prime Day.

We are in an apartment so we needed to find a litter box for our cats that was enclosed and didn’t take up a ton of room. We were so excited when we found these Igloo cat litter boxes with a modern and minimalist design.

My husband is a genius and also found flushable litter! We also invested in an automatic cat water fountain which our cats love.

A few other things we bought for our cats (can you tell by now that we spoil our animals?!) are elevated cat bowls for feeding and a window perch, which is by far the cats’ favorite thing in our apartment. We also got them a laser toy that is good for getting them to play and have some exercise and an automatic pet feeder which dispenses dry food on a timer when we are out all day or in the evening.

Don’t worry, we also get loads of stuff for our dog, Archie! His favorite dog bed is from Amazon. We also love these dog wipes and is there any dog owner who doesn’t always have a bag of Greenies stashed away somewhere? Our favorite no-pull pet harness is also from Amazon. And this portable water and food dispenser is great for long walks.

Random Things

There are a few other random products that are on sale for Amazon Prime Day that I want to share with you because they have been so helpful in our household. Given all the pet hair we contend with, we could not live without the cordless Dyson vacuum.

We also love the Coway HEPA air purifier. We have had this for a while but let me tell you, it came in clutch when we recently experienced horrible air pollution from the wildfires in Canada.

Another random thing from Amazon that I love is the NUUN sports electrolyte drink tablets. I bring these on all of my shoots and when my husband and I go hiking etc.

Are you a coffee drinker? I am, so I have to share the amazing deals right now for coffee makers. We love our Nespresso machine but it’s an older version so we will be buying the VeturoPlus Deluxe Coffee and Espresso Machine while it’s on sale.

On Amazon Prime Day I always stock up on my favorite daily facial moisturizer with SPF. And in an effort to be more eco-friendly, I recently started using laundry detergent sheets that a close friend recommended.

My husband thought I was nuts when I bought a small treadmill that can be used under a standing desk but now I get my steps in every day without any issues! And the best thing that my husband recently bought me from Amazon is a drone! We had so much fun learning how to use it on our recent road trip through the Southwest. (Yes, that means some Youtube videos are coming your way, shortly!)
