Gone are the days when Amazon was merely a place to order a few household items in order to skip the trip to the store. Today, it's so much more than that, and as we've written about time and again, it has quickly become a major destination for fashion essentials. Between listing many of the brands you'd find on Shopbop and creating its own influencer-designed line of clothing with The Drop, each time I scroll through Amazon's fashion section, it never fails to leave me impressed.
During my latest virtual shopping extravaganza, I happened to notice that the site is chock-full of the kind of elevated wardrobe staples that you'd find in the closets of fashion insiders everywhere. While there are plenty of simpler basics to be found, today, I'm highlighting all the chic fashion girl–approved pieces that I was honestly surprised to find at a place like Amazon. But hey, it's 2021, and we're shopping for insider buys on none other than the 'zon. So with that, continue on to see the 35 buys that tell me you're a fashion person without telling me.
The micro-trend every cool person is wearing now.
Relaxed trousers are a staple each fall, but especially this one.
