The day has finally arrived. After a lifetime of commitment to the hardcover life, I am currently at a place in my life where reading only makes sense if it is also affordable and space-saving…so I’m investing in a Kindle. I have some lofty reading goals for 2025, and high hopes that this is going to get me there. Knowing me, I’m probably going to end up getting some cute Kindle accessories, too.

My last pair of Beats Studio Pro headphones lasted me over 4 years of daily use, but they’re looking ROUGH these days. So, I’m finally grabbing a shiny new pair while they’re more than 50% off for Prime Day. I’m obsessed with both the Deep Brown and Dune color.

Amazon Prime Day is when I, yes, get all of the splurge items I’ve been needing, but also when I stock up on accessories and pieces to update my home. I’ve been obsessing over ribbed vases for flowers (so chic!), and the large size is 40% off for Prime Day (basically a steal). Weekly fresh flowers are my self-care; they’re how I romantizie my life. And now, thanks to this stylish vase (at an amazing price), they’ll look extra beautiful on my coffee table or kitchen counter.

This year, I’m determined to upgrade my workout wardrobe from the stretched-out, worn tanks I’ve had since high school to pieces that actually motivate me to get moving. As research for my mission, every time I see someone in a cute workout set, I always ask where it’s from, and I swear, 99% of the time, the answer is Amazon. I shouldn’t be surprised at this point, but I’m still shocked it’s not a splurge from Lululemon—it literally looks exactly like it! So, I’m finally pulling the trigger this prime day to see if CRZ Yoga lives up to the hype. The fabric is said to feel just like Lululemon’s Align but for a fraction of the price. And since it’s on sale, I have no reason not to purchase.

I’m a 2025 bride so this Instax Mini Instant Camera found its way into my cart in record time. As someone who has attended countless weddings and bachelorettes over the years, I’ve seen these in action and they’re essential in my eyes. It’s one of those cameras that you can pass off to someone else without a tutorial and it prints out the most stunning, vibey polaroids for people to take home (or, selfishly, for my scrapbook).

I have this air purifier in my bedroom and in my baby’s nursery, and as someone with pets AND a dust mite allergy, it makes such a big difference in how my room feels. I’ll be snagging another one while it’s on sale to add to my living room downstairs!

These are the only bike shorts I’ve found that can compete with my Lululemon Aligns. Since I WFH, bike shorts and a sweatshirt are my go-to uniform, so I’ll be snagging another pair of these perfect black bike shorts while they’re under $15 (!).

My WFH setup is functional, but is it optimized for success? No chance. The camera I use for meetings is the one built into my laptop, and while it works, it’s not ideal considering I primarily look at a monitor for work tasks. I have been wanting a webcam that I can attach to my monitor for months, so my first order of business in my office upgrade is adding this one to my cart.

I never, ever buy clothes from Amazon, but at the moment, I’m in dire need of some solid basics to layer under my thrifted sweaters and button-ups as winter arrives in Chicago. This ribbed long-sleeve may be labeled a “going out” top, but I’ll personally be wearing it to WFH with a pair of cute sweats.

If there’s one thing my close friends know about me, it’s that I am not a morning person. I’ve had my eye on the Hatch alarm clock for a while now, in hopes that it can finally save me from the dreadful iPhone alarm sound and groggy mornings. I have no more excuses with the Hatch being on sale, and I’m finally doing it, with better sleep ahead.

The last thing I need during Q4 is to get sick or just feel icky in general, so I’m taking every measure possible to feel my best—and this humidifier is part of the plan. It helps alleviate allergies, cold symptoms, and dry skin, and if I can get all of that for just $40, you better believe I’ll be purchasing and keeping it on in my bedroom 24/7.

I love this magnesium powder for my sleepy girl mocktails before bed, and even though I’m not technically in need of a refill just yet, I’m using Prime Day to stock up so that when that time comes, I’m prepared. Paired with tart cherry juice and some sparkling water, this is the best way to wind down after a long day, and I’ve found that my sleep game has been on point since introducing it into my routine.

I’ve owned and loved a robot vacuum for years now, but given that I just adopted a sweet little kitten, I’ve been looking to upgrade it to a newer model. This is the one I’ve had my eye on due to its ability to map your home, pick up pet hair, and spot clean if you tell it to. At 40% off, it’s the gift to myself that’ll keep on giving.

I bought one of these gold-framed pieces of art a couple of weeks ago, and I was so impressed with the quality and authentic vintage feel. It 100% looks like something you’d pick up at a flea market, and I’m obsessed with all the different designs. The price was already affordable, but now that it’s 30% for Prime Day, I will definitely be snagging a few more to place around the house.

I’m a sucker for a bouncy blowout, but I’m not a fan of the effort it takes to achieve one. Whenever I want to style my hair, I have to go through my entire shower routine to get it wet and ready for a Dyson transformation. It takes so much time, and in the summer, I end up sweating profusely in my bathroom for 45 minutes as I dry my hair. I’ve been thinking about getting a heated round brush to make my blowouts easier (and less sweaty), and now that this one is on sale, I’m finally going for it.

Yeah, I could use Prime Day to buy something actually useful… or I could use it to finally buy a pickleball paddle instead of constantly borrowing from my friends when I hit the courts. I’m well aware that I could get a similar paddle for cheaper, but I’m just obsessed with the cute designs on the Recess paddles, and this is quite literally the best deal I have ever seen on these paddles in the year and a half that I’ve been aware of them. Consider me sold.

There’s no better feeling than seeing your tried-and-true favorite products on sale for Prime Day. The Youth To The People Superfood Cleanser is an all-time favorite for me; it’s gentle on sensitive skin and doesn’t strip moisture like others do. Since it is expensive for a face wash, I, of course, have to take advantage of $10 off and stock up on my next backup bottle.

I am shamelessly that person who has to sleep with a weighted blanket every night, so much so that now when I travel, I get absolutely terrible sleep without it. This lap-size weighted blanket works perfectly when I need that extra comfort for local vacations or road trips, and it doesn’t weigh too much, so it’s easy to pack or store away when not in use.

Beekeeper’s Naturals is my secret to never getting sick and warding off colds before they even start. I’m stocking up (literally buying five) of the throat sprays because it’s currently 30% off and I take a spray of this daily (extra sprays while I’m traveling) to support my immune system and help fight any cold. It’s made with powerful all-natural ingredients like propolis, which is a bee product that has been used for medicinal purposes for thousands of years. Stock up while it’s on sale and trust me, this stuff works.

Sometimes you just need a nice, gentle hug on your head, and that’s exactly what the Nodpod is—a weighted blanket you lay across your eyes to help calm an overactive mind, soothe headaches, and finally get some quality sleep. I’ve never been the been the best sleeper, and I’ve been eyeing this for months wondering if it could be just the thing I’ve been looking for. Now that it’s on sale, I’m snatching one up.

I have been looking for the right hair mask for a while! I like using Moroccanoil shampoo and conditioner, but I have never tried a hair mask by this brand. I am obsessed with the smell and results after using it. Since all hair masks are more expensive than shampoo and conditioner combined, I am happy that I found the Prime Day deal for this product. I’m SO excited to try it!

If you’re anything like me, your AirPods are in a shameful condition and one has been floating around the house without its mate for quite some time (come to think of it, you haven’t seen it in a few days). If you’re not like me, feel free to judge me. This fantastic price point is enough for me to start my AirPod journey again without feeling any more guilty than I already do. I’ll be better this time, I swear!

I’m all about matching my accessories together in my outfits, and since I’ve recently obtained a pair of croc-embossed chocolate-brown booties, my hunt for a purse in a similar shade has yet to be successful.

The time has finally come. I am investing in a walking pad—but not just any walking pad. I have been eying this specific model because it has its own foldable desk (which is crucial since I don’t have a standing desk and don’t want one of those weird convertible desk contraptions). It also has a wider belt if I feel so inclined to run, and it stores easily under my bed. 10k steps a day, here I come.

I take tracking my steps very seriously, and I am ready to upgrade from carrying my bulky phone everywhere while logging my 10,000 steps to a more efficient Apple Watch. I’ve had my eye on the Apple Watch for a while, solely because of its fitness and sleep tracking capabilities. The best part is that the small device will stay on my wrist all day, and I won’t have to give it a second thought until I’m ready to check my steps.

These are my go-to whitening strips because they don’t cause sensitivity or pain, actually work, and are completely non-toxic (using natural ingredients like coconut oil and lemon peel). I use these at least once a week, or more if I have an event or vacation coming up I want my smile to look *extra* sparkly for, so you know I stock up on Prime Day when they’re 40% off.

I can’t keep a plant alive to save my life, but the cost of fake plants is robbery, IMO. I’ve been eying this one from Amazon for months now but could never justify the $130 price tag. Luckily, it’s almost half off right now, which means it was immediately added to my cart.

After years of trying to convince my husband we need a Frame TV, he’s finally been convinced.
