My Mom Is Shopping on Amazon More for Clothes and Beauty—I Sent Her These Picks for October's Prime Day
Discounted sweaters, jeans, beauty tools, and more.


Amazon Prime Big Deal Days (or October's Amazon Prime Day, as some refer to it) is officially here. Today, October 7, through tomorrow, October 8, Amazon Prime members can save on a wide assortment of items. Think of this as a pre-Black Friday sale, if you will. During Prime Day in July, I shared that my mom had never really bought clothing or beauty items on Amazon, but was interested in starting. She's now shopping on the site more, so naturally, I said I'd curate a list of items I think she'd like from October's Prime Day.
Below you'll find a quick list of the items I sent to my mom, including amazing jeans from Levi's and other affordable Amazon staples. And then keep scrolling for the full edit of the best fashion and beauty items to buy from Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, like the items highlighted above (cool sweaters, chic tailoring pieces, and more). I should also note that I did a little breakdown of my personal favorite pieces as a fashion editor (my mom also liked these items), which include picks from the Shopbop storefront on Amazon. Oh, I also found the Gap jeans Hailey Bieber wears on sale. Enjoy!
The Amazon Prime Big Deal Days items I sent to my mom:
- PRETTYGARDEN Oversized Sweater, $26 (originally $33)
- Levi's Ribcage Jeans, $74 (originally $98)
- Hanes T-Shirt, $12 (originally $16)
- Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask, $16 (originally $24)
My personal favorite fashion items:
Best Deals on Sweaters/Tops
Best Deals on Jeans
Best Deals on Jackets
Best Deals on Shoes
Best Deal on Beauty
