I Spent 5 Hours Digging Through Amazon’s Prime Day Sales

My Favorite Amazon Purchases for Summer 2026

Before I get into all of the Prime Day deals, I wanted to share a few of my favorite Amazon purchases that I’ve actually been using and loving. These are the things I recommend because they’ve made my life easier, more comfortable, or just a little more fun. If you’ve been around here for a while, you’ve probably seen some of these before because they’re the kind of finds I keep going back to.

Y’all already know how picky I am about shoes, and these NAOT sandals have been one of my best purchases. They have incredible arch support, the footbed molds to your feet over time, and I can wear them for hours without my feet complaining. The metallic leather goes with just about everything, too, so they’re one of those sandals I end up reaching for all summer long.

I’m wearing a medium here, and there’s still plenty of room, especially around the hips and tummy. The fabric of this Floral Shift Dress has a silky feel, and it’s lightweight without being clingy or see-through, which can be a tough balance to find in Amazon dresses.

I feel a little spoiled every time I put these silky pajamas on. The satin has that soft, silky feel but isn’t too heavy or clingy, which makes it nice even on warmer nights. It’s oversized in the best way, roomy and comfy without looking like you’re swimming in it. They come in lots of fun prints (seriously, like 40 different ones!), but I went with this gorgeous floral print!

These wide-leg floral pants are soft and flowy, with a flattering tie waist that lets you breathe. And the colors? So cheerful, they practically plan your whole outfit for you.

This shorts set is for those casual days when you still want to feel pulled together. The oversized shirt gives you a relaxed, slightly polished look, while the matching shorts are soft and comfy without being clingy. It’s the perfect outfit for weekend brunch or strolling through a summer market!

Okay, pink isn’t always my go-to, but this Pink Tank Sundress totally won me over. It’s sleeveless, soft, and has just enough volume in the skirt to feel breezy and flattering. The color is warm and springy without being too sweet—think “grown-up pink.”

I’m wearing it with my favorite Stretch Denim Jacket that I’ve worn for around 5 years.

This black and white sweater vest looks great worn as a top. You don’t have to layer a vest with another shirt; you can wear it alone for a different look. I love the casual yet classic look of the vest, and it looks fabulous with a pair of jeans.

A reader mentioned she had a pair of silver Ryka sneakers, so I had to have them. They look so cute, and they will look great with jeans and shorts this summer.

This is my favorite skort! You know I love versatile clothing, and this skort outfit could be worn for golf, tennis, or a date night. I love this print, and this length is my favorite for a skort. The longer skorts look dressy, but this length helps to make my legs look long and lean, and that’s what I want. This skort is also available in more colors and prints.

You never would have guessed that these are my absolute favorite leggings! They are from Amazon, and they are the lightest, softest, most buttery leggings I have ever put on my body. They are so inexpensive, and they come in a 3-pack.

Keep in mind that these leggings have zero compression, but they are my absolute favorite day-to-day leggings. I think these win the award for the thinnest, softest black leggings for women over 50. Bookmark these as a must-try item, girls!

This cotton tunic dress is 100% cotton, so you know it will help keep you cool. I love the wrinkled gauze look, but I really like the frayed details. The placket, sleeves, and hem are all frayed for an easy-going style.

Y’all know I love skincare gadgets, and this CryoGlow LED Face Mask is a great one! It combines red and blue LED light therapy with cooling under-eye pads that feel wonderful after a long day. If you’ve been curious about trying LED therapy at home, Prime Day is one of the best times to save on a splurge like this. Think of it as bringing a little spa treatment into your own bathroom.

It may look odd, but it is definitely worth checking out. I’ve been using the red light for 30 days, and I am really starting to see improvement in the firmness of my skin. It is the “cryo” part that sets this mask apart from others. It feels so nice on my tired eyes each morning, and helps to ease the puffiness from my eyes.

Hot flashes, summer heat, standing on the sidelines at a ballgame…this little gadget is about to become your new best friend. It isn’t just a fan. It also has a cooling plate that feels amazing against your skin and can even be used as a portable power bank. It’s small enough to toss in your purse, and I have a feeling a lot of you are going to wonder how you ever survived summer without it.

I already told Joe he could borrow it when he goes to play golf.

If you love the look of a wedge but don’t want to wobble around all day, these Espadrille Platform Sandals are such a fun find. The platform makes them surprisingly comfortable, and they give you a little extra height without feeling like you’re walking in heels. I think they’re adorable with dresses, cropped jeans, or shorts, and they look much more expensive than they are.

I know bras aren’t the most exciting thing to shop for, but this Seamless Stretch Wireless Bra deserves a spot in your cart. It’s wireless, lightly lined, and so comfortable that I honestly forget I’m wearing it. The underarm smoothing panels help everything lay nicely under tops and T-shirts, and it’s one of those everyday basics that just makes getting dressed easier.

Sometimes all an outfit needs is one fun accessory, and this Chunky Necklace does exactly that. The chunky resin beads instantly brighten up a simple tee, white dress, or solid-colored top without feeling heavy around your neck. It comes in several pretty colors, so it’s an easy way to add a little personality to your summer wardrobe without spending a fortune.

These little Portable Chargers have saved me more times than I can count. It snaps right onto the back of your iPhone, so you don’t have to fool with cords while you’re out shopping, traveling, or running errands.

It’s lightweight enough to toss in my purse, gives me a much-needed battery boost when I’m away from home, and Anker has always been one of those brands I trust for chargers. On Prime Day, this is one of those practical deals that’s absolutely worth grabbing.

I use this Vibration Plate almost daily. It helps get my blood flowing, especially on days when I realize I haven’t moved much at all.

It’s not a magic fix, but it’s one of those small things that makes you feel like you’re doing something good for your body.

I’ve heard so many people rave about these toner pads, and I can definitely see why they’re so popular. They’re textured on one side for gentle exfoliation and smooth on the other for toning, making your skincare routine quick and easy.

If your skin has been looking a little dull or your pores seem more noticeable, these are worth trying. They’re one of those K-beauty products that seem to have developed a huge following for good reason.

This machine looks like so much fun! You can make frozen coffee drinks, fruit slushies, mocktails, smoothies, and even frozen cocktails without having to mess with a blender full of ice. It’s perfect for summer get-togethers or when the grandkids come over, and I can already picture everyone lining up to make their favorite frozen drink.

These little tabletop fire pits are just plain fun. They’re perfect for roasting marshmallows on the patio, adding a cozy glow to an outdoor dinner, or creating a little ambiance while you’re sitting outside. Since they come as a two-pack, you can keep one and gift the other or use both when you’re entertaining.

This Flawless Finish Setting Powder has been a favorite for years, and once you try it, you’ll understand why. It helps blur the look of pores and fine lines without looking heavy or cakey, which is something many powders struggle to do. If you want your makeup to look soft and natural instead of powdery, this one is definitely worth the hype.

When I want my makeup to stay put all day, this is the Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray I reach for. It gives my skin a fresh, natural finish instead of making everything look flat, and it really helps my makeup last through heat and humidity. If you’ve never tried it before, Prime Day is a great excuse to finally see what all the fuss is about.

I don’t know about y’all, but wrinkled clothes drive me crazy when I’m traveling. This little steamer heats up quickly, works as both a steamer and an iron, and doesn’t take up much room in a suitcase. It’s one of those travel gadgets you’ll be glad you packed, especially if you’re headed to weddings, cruises, or summer vacations.

Anything that helps keep my floors clean without me having to think about it gets my vote. This Roomba vacuums and mops at the same time, so it tackles dust, crumbs, and everyday messes while you’re doing something else. If you’ve been waiting to upgrade your robot vacuum, Prime Day is usually one of the best times of the year to buy one.

If you’re tired of lugging around a heavy cooler, Cooler with Wheels is worth a look. The wheels make it so much easier to roll to the beach, campsite, or your next family cookout, and I love that it has a dry storage compartment to keep things like sandwiches, snacks, or utensils separate from the ice.

It holds ice for days, is built to last, and is one of those purchases you’ll use all summer long and for years to come. Prime Day is a great time to grab it while it’s on sale.

I know it sounds a little wild to buy a couch on Amazon, but hear me out! Amazon has really stepped up its furniture game, and this cloud-style sectional has become a customer favorite. It has that deep, cozy, sink-in feel everyone loves, plus the modular design lets you arrange it to fit your space. The soft chenille fabric gives it an expensive look without the designer price tag. If you’ve been wanting to refresh your living room, Prime Day is one of the best times to score a deal on a big-ticket purchase like this.
