I Only Buy Basics From Amazon—Here Are the 27 I'm Buying From Its Sale

I'll admit I tend to buy a lot of random but surprisingly useful items from Amazon. From books to bath accessories and baby gear to electronics, I can fill up my online Amazon cart quicker than I can refresh my Insta feed. But if there's one item I buy more than any other on Amazon, it's fashion basics. From my absolute favorite $6 Hanes tee to the classic black tank dress I wear on repeat, the one-stop-shop is my go-to for reliable and affordable wardrobe essentials.
As a fashion market editor, I tend to cover Amazon shopping a lot, so I've learned a thing or two throughout the years on the best brands and sartorial staples worth scooping up from the multi-brand retailer. So with Amazon Prime Day upon us, (taking place between October 13 14), there's no better time to stock up on timeless everyday basics. Keep scrolling to see some of my favorite Amazon staples along with what I'm snatching up in the sale.
