People are always shocked when I say I don’t shop on Amazon very often. I’m part of the “old” generation who still get that giddy feeling in their stomachs when they walk into a store and wander the vast aisles. However, I can’t help but say that sometimes, shopping online, like right now during Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, brings convenience that even I love. In fact, some of the deals were so good I had to think twice before buying them.
While the name may be a mouthful, the concept is not. short and sweet, like second Prime Day, which coincides with the start of the holiday shopping season, and also happens to be the time of year when I’m prone to online shopping. So, like I said, while I rarely shop on Amazon (or online in general), I know not to miss out on a good sale, and Amazon’s October Prime Day is just that, with thousands of products in every department , from home to technology to fashion to beauty.
Here’s a list of all the deals I can’t miss, from the designer shirt dress I plan to wear all season long to the fall 2024 bag trends I can’t put down. See everything I’m shopping from the comfort of your home.

Joe’s the Mia high-waisted wide-leg jeans
Amazon
I’m a jeans girl through and through, and while I’ve tried just about every denim brand on the market, I always come back to Joe’s Jeans, the brand worn by Jennifer Garner. This particular pair has a fresh fall feel, with a classic dark wash and a comfortable wide-leg silhouette.
Apple AirPods Pro (2nd generation)
Amazon
It’s been a while since I bought new AirPods and I thought it was time to upgrade to the Pro model during the sale. I would love to try the noise canceling design, my husband said it would be ideal. Plus, the silicone ear tips seem much more comfortable than the ones on my old AirPods.
Bio-Oil Skin Care Body Oil
Amazon
Amazon’s sale offers the perfect opportunity to stock up on tried-and-true staples. I’ve been using Bio-Oil’s body oil since I was a teenager (especially for stretch marks after a growth spurt), and I haven’t stopped, even though I recently ran out. Luckily, it’s currently on sale, so it’s on its way to me.
Vince short sleeve side tie dress
Amazon
Whenever I see Vince on sale, I buy it. The brand is known for its quality materials and timeless design pieces, but I especially love this fresh take on the classic T-shirt dress. The side tie adds a dramatic touch while still exuding the effortless nature of this style. I plan to pair it with tall brown suede boots and a hobo bag.
Frye Nora knotted hobo bag
Amazon
The Hobo bag is a must-have for the cool girl. Pair it with wide pants and a farmer’s shirt for a retro vibe.
Briogeo Scalp Rejuvenating Rosemary Pre-Wash Oil
Amazon
I am very into scalp health and if you read anything lately, people stress the importance of a clean, healthy scalp. That’s why I add this rosemary pre-wash oil to my shower routine.
Dr. Scholl’s casual sneakers
Dr. Scholes
I love a good sneaker, and according to thousands of shoppers, this pair from Dr. Scholl’s Time Off is my favorite. So much so that even flight attendants can wear them for hours on end. If it’s good enough for them, it’s good enough for me.
Anker compact power bank
Amazon
I never go anywhere without a portable charger on hand, especially since my iPhone is old so the battery life is shrinking. This Anker is cute and small, so I can fit it into even my smallest purse.
Cosrx Snail Mucin 96% Repair Essence
Amazon
It’s restock time! Whenever Cosrx Snail Mucin goes on sale, I make sure to stock up because I use it so much and too often that I run out of it quickly. IYKYK.
Theory halter neck shirt
Amazon
I know what you’re thinking: Eva, why buy a sleeveless top in the fall? Well, because this particular piece is the ideal layering staple and looks great paired with cozy cardigans and blazers. Plus, I’m a fan of The Theory of Everything, so when I find this brand on sale, I better buy it.
Tory Burch Kira flip flops
Amazon
I swear by flip flops for year-round use, especially when I need a convenient pair of shoes to throw on quickly when I need to take out the trash or grab the mail. Plus, the fact that they’re designer shoes doesn’t hurt either.
YFXCVSL Store 4-layer plastic storage box
Amazon
It’s time to organize my home and I’m going to do it with these super cute storage bins that are perfect for a small New York City apartment. They’re compact and fold up, and putting them together seems like a breeze.
Z Supply wide pants
Amazon
Are there comfortable pants that I can wear 24/7? I don’t find them very often, but these Z Supply bottoms look like they’ll do the trick. The breathable fabric and cute design make them perfect from sofa to cocktails.
Mielle Organics Rosemary Mint Lightweight Scalp and Hair Strengthening Oil
Amazon
I always stock up on this when it’s on sale, but I’m curious to try the lighter option since I have thin hair that gets greasy quickly. So, I’m ready to try the product Mielle purchased, stat.
Great. ultra-thin tank
Amazon
I love a good vest when I see it, and this one from The Great has my full attention right now. Its silhouette is perfect for layering, but it also looks great on its own.
Gorgeous classic turtleneck sweater
Amazon
As opposed to tank tops, I’m also a big fan of turtlenecks for fall. I think it’s my most-worn staple, especially when it’s buttery soft like this Splendid discovery that’s on sale right now.
ThermoMaven Shop Professional Digital Meat Thermometer
Amazon
I always see something random, and this time, it was a meat thermometer, a kitchen tool I’ve been thinking about for months. It makes cooking meat 10x easier and I no longer have to worry about undercooking or overcooking anything.
Theory Treeca pull-on pants
Amazon
There’s nothing better than a good pair of pull-on pants that require zero effort to put on and zero effort to wear. These classic Theory bottoms are simple yet timeless, which means I can wear them for years to come.
Jacquemus Le Chiquito bag
Amazon
Mini bags may not seem like the smartest purchase ever (I know, I know!), but they are the cutest, especially the Jacquemus selection I’ve been eyeing for years. Now that it’s for sale, I’m finally ready to make this mini mine.
