Have you heard Amazon Prime Day is coming up? There are even early sales happening right now. So in the spirit of shopping one of our most visited shopping sites, I thought we could visit one of my most loved shopping categories (and surprisingly, it's not clothes).

If you took a look at my Amazon account, you'd see that among the past orders of Kind Bars and shampoo, there are a plethora of travel accessories. The e-tailer legitimately has everything you could ever possibly want or need for a trip (including this $12 item that's gone viral). I've recently not been taking this for granted, as I've come to the realization that comfort and convenience are worth the extra time, money, and effort when traveling (s/o to Delta Comfort and TSA Precheck), and that includes what accessories you pack. And now, I'm here to share with you the best Amazon travel accessories.

While they may not all be pretty to look at, when you realize how good they are, you certainly won't care. There are accessories to keep your clothing organized, charge your phone on the go (and clean it), identify your bag, and even check the weight of it. I'm not sure how I got by before I discovered these gems, but what I am sure of is that reduced my stress level when packing and traveling and for that reason, life changed.

Shop the 16 Amazon travel accessories you need to know about below.

Now find out which shoes make me cringe when I see them at the airport.
