Everything Evie Editors Are Buying During Amazon Prime Day
Let's get one thing straight: Amazon Prime Day is not the time to wing it. Few things in life are more painful than buying something full price only to watch it get knocked down 40 percent the very next day. Or, equally tragic, realizing you're completely out of your everyday essentials mere hours after Prime Day has come and gone. Both are preventable tragedies, and I refuse to let either happen to you.

The key to a successful Prime Day is thinking beyond what you need right now. Yes, you should absolutely be stocking up on basics like batteries, paper towels, diapers, and supplements that you're either running low on or can confidently buy in bulk. But the really savvy shoppers think ahead. What birthdays are coming up in the next few months? Anniversaries? Are the holidays closer than you think (spoiler: they always are)? Are the kids about to grow out of the only pair of shoes you actually like to see them wear? Have you been desperately needing a nude bra that goes with everything but keep putting it off? Or maybe you've been pinning butter yellow ballet flats on repeat, manifesting them onto your doorstep without ever actually hitting "buy." If any of that sounds familiar, this is your sign.
