I Asked My French Best Friend What She'd Buy on Amazon Prime Day—11 Elegant Finds She Recommended
I’m constantly asking my French best friend for advice on which pieces are worth adding to my wardrobe, and Prime Day is no different. Here are the 11 best deals she recommends.
I know what you’re thinking: elegant buys might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Amazon. However, trust me when I say that some of the most polished items I’ve added to my own capsule wardrobe have come from the brand’s Prime Day sale. How do I know that they’re polished, you may ask? Well, they all come approved by my Parisian friend, who is one of the chicest women I know. I’m constantly asking her for advice on which pieces are worth adding to my wardrobe, and Prime Day is no different.
Amazon has quietly become one of our go-to destinations for affordable, elevated, refined staples, from sleek handbags and French-pharmacy face creams to elegant flat shoes and expensive-looking jewellery—all the items associated with the coveted Gallic-girl aesthetic. So, with October’s Big Deals Day finally here, I decided to ask her to pick out 11 of the best bits for the autumn season and beyond. And believe me when I say they did not disappoint. From fashion finds that will solve those daily "What do I wear?" panics to beauty buys that will allow you to get all your favourite formulas on a budget, it should come as no surprise that each of these Prime Day deals made their way into my basket.
But the best part? I’ve rounded them up for you below, so you, too, can curate your own French-girl-approved wardrobe for less this season (and add a little French flair to your beauty routine). Keep scrolling to see and shop the 11 Amazon Prime Day sale buys my French friend would genuinely buy.
