Prime Day Is Almost Over, So Get That $16 Madewell Tank Now
In this article
Prime Day is here, and we’re updating this story hourly. To find the best deals in every category, follow all of our Prime Day coverage.
It’s the final day of this year’s Prime Day. By the end of the night, prices will go up again, so today is your last chance to save on things like Levi’s jean shorts, Madewell skirts, and Gap Factory tops. Over the course of the sales extravaganza, stock has gone down — so I were you, I’d be sure to check out sooner rather than later.
Here’s my best advice: Be sure to check out the Shopbop storefront (officially, the Shop by Shopbop), where name brands like Kule and Alex Mill can be very cheap — sometimes at prices lower than what you’d find at their respective Black Friday sales. Another highlight is the Zappos section, if you’re in the market for, say, Tkees flip-flops or Free People dresses. And there are plenty of other good deals too — including on Ray-Ban Wayfarers and Polo Ralph Lauren socks. Below are the Prime Day fashion deals I think are the best — but remember, the savings end tonight. Of course, it’s all hands on deck for the Strategist team during the sales event — sign up to receive the Strategist’s Deal Freaks Daily newsletter to keep yourself up-to-date, or just check out our (exhaustive) list of the best Prime Day deals according to our deals editor.
