August Amazon Purchases
I can’t believe summer has officially come to an end! It flew by way too fast, although I’m really excited for fall. Below I’m rounding up my August Amazon purchases by category. This round up includes a lot of killer fashion finds for fall, a few accessories, & home essentials. To see the videos of my clothes, be sure to check out my Amazon highlight on Instagram.I included all the photos I had of one to make it easy to shop!
Clothes & Accessories
Kimono Cardigan: I love how many ways you can style kimonos. You can wear them now with denim shorts, a t-shirt, & sandals & transition into your fall wardrobe with jeans & booties. This kimono comes with an adjustable waist tie so you can tie it up for a more fitted look or just wear it open for a more casual & flowy look. It’s under $25 & comes in 20 colors.
Swimsuit Coverup: I’m all about affordable swimsuit coverups & this is definitely one of my favorites. I love the bohemian style & open knit material on this one to keep you extra cool. It’s the perfect coverup for a summer or beach vacation to just throw on over your swimsuit for a walk on the beach or casual lunch. It’s under $20 & comes in over 20 colors. I got it in both black & gray.
Two Piece Set: This matching two-piece sweater set is to die for! It’s the perfect casual outfit for summer & SO comfortable. You can even wear it around the house as loungewear (which I’ll definitely be doing.) It’s under $35 & comes in 6 colors (including stripes.) I got it in white in a size Small.
Exercise Tank Top: I’m so glad I came across this buttery soft exercise tank top. It comes with removable padding, has a slightly cropped fit, & is so flattering paired with high waisted leggings. It’s under $25 & comes in 12 colors. I got it in the light grey color & will probably get it in many more colors, it’s that good! It does fit a little small, so I sized up to a Medium.
Joggers: These drawstring joggers are SO comfortable. They are high waisted, have deep pockets on the side, & a cropped fitted ankle, which I think is always more flattering. They’re perfect for lounging around the house, running errands or travel. They come in 10 colors & are under $15. I got a size Small.
Sweatshirt Dress: I can’t wait to lounge around in this mini hooded sweatshirt dress. I love it paired with sneakers for a comfy yet put together look. It’s under $20 & comes in 5 colors. I got a size XS.
Turtleneck Sweater: This sweater is a closet essential for your fall/winter wardrobe. I shared this knitted turtleneck sweater on my Save or Splurge: NSale Edition blog post & can’t believe how similar it looks to the Free People one that sold out so fast this year. It’s super comfy, slightly oversized, & can be dressed up with jeans & booties or down with leggings & sneakers. It’s under $35 & comes in 13 colors (including color blocks.) I got it in the camel color in a size Small.
Crewneck Sweater: This crewneck sweater is a great closet basic. The ribbed cuffs, hem, & collar give a classy & sophisticated look you can easily dress up for work with a blazer & pants or wear causal with jeans & sneakers. It’s under $20 & comes in over 30 colors. I got a size XS.
Tank Maxi Dress: This maxi dress is the perfect casual dress you can wear now & easily transition into your fall/winter wardrobe with a denim jacket or sweater & booties. You can also dress it up with a belt & accessories. It’s under $30 & comes in 10 colors (including patterns.) I got a size Small.
Initial Letter Ring: This under $15 initial letter ring is so dang cute. It’s a great jewelry item for every day wear, has an adjustable band, & really nice quality. You can wear it by itself or stack it with other dainty rings, which you know I love! It’s a great personalized gift idea, too. If you’re looking for more inspo on every day jewelry, check out my everyday jewelry blog post here.
Eyeglass Chain Holder: This beaded eyeglass chain holder is so chic. It’s the only way I don’t misplace my glasses around the house & is a lifesaver, trust me. It’s under $10 & comes in over 15 different styles. Highly recommend!
Crossbody Bag: I love the look & feel of this cloud crossbody bag. It’s a great affordable bag you can wear all year round. The material is so soft & smooth & looks a lot more expensive than it is. It’s under $35 & comes in 8 colors. I got the large size in cream & might even get it in black too.
Home
Wooden Picture Frames: I thought these wooden picture frames were really unique. I love the thick wooden border & glass frame. I’ll probably use them for our gallery wall I’m working on in our kitchen. They’re super affordable & hand crafted, which I thought was so cool. If you’re looking for inspo on how to decorate a blank wall in your house, be sure to check out my blog post on how to create a gallery wall for more tips & tricks!
The Book of Psalms: I shared several coffee table books in my July Amazon blog post & keep finding more to add to our collection.I think coffee table books are one of the easiest ways to decorate a space. If you’re looking for more coffee table books, I’ve linked them all on my blog here.
Stone: The front cover & textures on this Stone coffee table book is so unique. This book gives you a global tour of all kinds of building materials used throughout history & projects by the world’s best contemporary architects. Great way to find home inspo!
Gold Metal Picture Frames: I love the simple modern design on these gold metal picture frames. I used a few of these on our gallery wall in the guest bedroom & was really pleased how they turned out. The quality is amazing & they’re really easy to assemble (which is always a plus.) They’re under $25 & come in 4 colors.
Hanging Strips: These hanging strips are so good to have around the house for hassle free assembly. They’re under $10 & have almost 24k positive reviews. Can’t go wrong!
Gorilla Super Glue: This super glue can be used for so many things around the house & is just good essential for the home. It’s under $10 & has over 14k positive reviews.
Other
Underarm Scrub: I’m a big fan of this underarm detox scrub. It’s made with clean ingredients that feel amazing on your skin & really help unclog your armpit pores. If you’re trying to switch over to a natural deodorant, I highly recommend using this to help get your armpits back to their natural state!
Elderberry Immune Gummy: Clearly we take these elderberry immune boosting gummies on a regular basis since I keep restocking them. I mentioned them in my March, May, June, & July Amazon blog post & can’t recommend them enough! They taste like a healthy treat filled with tons of immune boosting benefits from elderberry, vitamin c, & zinc. Not to mention, they’re great for the whole fam!
Nut Pods: This dairy free coffee creamer is a game changer. It foams so well in coffee or matcha & gives your beverage the perfect creamy & delicious texture we all desire. You honestly can’t even tell it’s vegan. I like the french vanilla for everyday use, but they also have a cinnamon swirl flavor that’s really tasty too. Not to mention, it’s Whole 30 approved. If you’re looking for more Whole 30 ideas, be sure to check out my Whole 30 Essentials blog post.
Nespresso Capsules: These Nespresso capsules are the perfect pick me up. They come in 8 different flavors & blends. We’ve been drinking the mild roast blend & it’s SO good.
Blue Lotus Chai: I’ve been switching on & off between coffee & chai tea lately & highly recommend this one. It’s made with organic spices, has no additives, & comes in 6 different flavors. I’ve been drinking the traditional flavor & it taste so authentic.
Slippers: Slippers have become a closet staple lately. Anyone else?! I came across these cozy slippers that remind me of the Loft slippers that sold out so quickly last year. They have a durable insole & feel like you’re walking on a cloud. They’re under $25 & come in 6 colors. I got a size Medium.
Ring Light Stand: This ring light stand is amazing. It’s basically a mini tripod for your phone that provides a dimmable light so you don’t have shadows in the background. It’s currently on sale (under $100) for Amazon Prime members & has over 12k positive reviews. Can’t go wrong!
Sea Sponges: These all natural sea sponges are a great way to exfoliate your skin. If you have sensitive skin, I highly recommend these since they are so gentle on your skin & won’t cause irritation or rashes. The sponges come in a variety of sizes & can be reused multiple times, which I love.
Picnic Basket: I thought this wicker picnic basket was so cute. It’s a great idea for date night, camping, or any outdoor event. It even comes with utensils for 4 people. It’s under $70, lightweight, & really easy to carry for on the go.
