Im a Brand Snob and Found the Best Elevated Fashion Finds on Amazon

Here’s the thing about me—when it comes to fashion pieces, I have hawkeye vision on what’s good and what’s not. Just the other day, I visited the Fendi store with a picture of an unreleased kitten heel that not even the staff knew about, before the manager politely pulled me aside and brought the shoe out from the backroom. I know a good investment when I see one, which is why I’m delighted to bring forth the best fashion finds currently available on Amazon—and there are a lot.

I’ve actually tried plenty of these picks in the past, so I know they’re 100 percent worth it, like this Theory Flap Midi Dress I put on in Paris or these Sam Edelman Kara Slingback I tried on in Soho. In fact, I’m shook that they are so generously discounted right now, it would be a shame to not share with you, readers. Because out of all the holidays that exist, be it birthdays, graduations, promotions, anniversaries, or Valentine’s day, Prime Day is the one “holiday” we get to treat our hard working selves, rather than a loved one. So slip into your sweats, lean into your couches, and doom scroll all my favorite things to find a few gifts for yourselves. It’s a mid-year treat, if you will, and a chance to splurge on a number of items that will surely enhance your space, mood, or soul. 

I did the heavy lifting to gather the best elevated fashion items on Amazon, so all you have to lift is a single finger to hit “Add to Cart.” Check out all the best finds below.

The nice perk about shopping on Amazon is that while you can find most of your brand favorites here, you’ll also find a couple of selects that may have sold out on the main website and can now only be found on Amazon (and usually discounted). So if you missed out on buying that shirt, those pants, and perhaps the sunglasses, then make sure to check Amazon because there’s a high chance you’ll find it here. In other cases, the product might be listed as full price on the original website, only to be majorly discounted on Amazon (take this Coach sandal for example). 

Best Editor-Loved Clothing Items 

I’m kicking this off with some cute skirts, dresses, and loungewear. The temperatures are rising rapidly, so make some room in your closet for a floral skirt from Vince and a breezy dress from Theory. I’m confident that these trusted brands will deliver both in style and in quality, and that with free Prime shipping.

Vince Poppy Blur Gathered Easy Skirt

Stunning—that’s all I have to say about this Vince midi skirt. It has the perfect color, pattern, cut, and flow for a spring-to-summer skirt. Whatever the occasion may be, this will add an instant elegance to the function that will certainly draw attention. So while it may be on the pricier side, I think it's well worth the appreciative oohs and ahhs you will get. 

Theory Flap Midi Dress

Believe it or not, I actually tried this Theory dress on in Paris when it first came out, and then again in London when I hesitated to buy it the first time. Had it been $201 when I initially saw it, I would have snatched it up immediately. It’s nearly half the price of the original right now, which is an absolute steal, if you ask me. 

Best Editor-Loved Shoes

Yes, there are a ton of shoes listed here, but it’s only because there were so many great options it was impossible to narrow them down. Scroll through this list of Coach, Vince, Sam Edelman, and Ugg shoes, and you’ll see just what I mean. 

• Vince Blair Slip-On Sneaker, $144
• Sam Edelman Kara Slingback, $84 (Originally $140) 
• Coach Florence Sandal, $70 (Originally $125)
• Vince Coline Sandal, $190 (Originally $295)
• Stuart Weitzman Stuart 75 Pump, $333 (Originally $450)
• Coach Nikki Sandal, $111 (Originally $195)
• Tory Burch Miller Sandal, $198
• Sam Edelman Bay Slide Sandal, $60 (Originally $120)
• Ugg Tazzle Slipper, $80 (Originally $130)
• Calvin Klein Arin Slide Sandal, $27
• Sam Edelman Micah Mary Jane Flat, $50 (Originally $130)

Sam Edelman Kara Slingback

It’s slingback season, and these Sam Edelmans are just *chef’s kiss.* I almost purchased these a while back as well, and am happy I didn’t because now I can get them majorly discounted. Depending on the color you choose, the price can change ever so slightly. Still, compared to the original $140, the shoe is a complete steal.

Coach Florence Sandal

Coach doesn’t just make great bags, but phenomenal shoes (and jackets) as well. I would know, because I went to investigate their collection along with the Coach team awhile back. With my chest lifted, I can say that Coach’s leather work is top notch. It’s not common to find shoes less than $100 from the brand, so jump on this sale while it lasts.

Best Editor-Loved Bags

I found a ton of classics under the bag category—think Coach’s famous Tabby Bag and a Tory Burch Ella Tote. Some are discounted, and others come with their original price, but all offer two-day Prime shipping and easy returns, should you not be pleased with your purchase. 

Coach Tabby Shoulder Bag 20

The Coach Tabby bag doesn’t need much of an introduction, but in case she’s new to you, this is the Coach bag to own right now. Functioning as a shoulder, crossbody, and top handle bag, the versatile little stunner can work with just about any outfit you piece together. 

Tory Burch Ella Patent Tote

This Tory Burch tote is iconic for a reason. Loved and recognized by all, the rather large bag can hold just about anything, making it so easy to gravitate toward whenever you have a ton to carry. Bring it to work, to travel, or to weekends away, and you’ll always look chic with it under your arm.

Best Editor-Loved Accessories

Accessories make or break an outfit, so I found a few essential pieces (think: gold hoops and silver watches) that every woman should own in their vanity. These designer pieces are a buy-once, wear-forever kind of deal, so it’s a true treat that you get them majorly discounted right now. 

Tory Burch Universal Fit Rectangular Sunglasses

It’s summer and the sun is beamingl. So it’s time to get some cute new sunnies and, these ones from Tory Burch are 61 percent off. A universally flattering shape and some nice dark lenses ensure they’ll look good on just about any face. Be warned, though, that some people reported that they run a bit small.

Kate Spade Lily Avenue Stainless Steel Watch

I’ve been slowly converting all of my accessories from gold to silver, and this Kate Spade watch would make a wonderful new addition to my collection. The slim chain feels very feminine, as do the diamonds wrapped around the window.
