When it comes to shopping, I'm not one for panic-buying or making useless splurges in the sales. Rather, my tactics are the same as many editors atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing UK, and we all apply our trusty shopping methods when shopping online, especially when deals are running during Amazon Prime Day. Whether it's wise beauty restocks (replacing your empties will never be a mistake) or classic shoe styles, now is the time to invest in tried-and-tested pieces rather than risk your hard-earned cash on something radically different. This is why, when it comes to fashion, it pays to choose simple, elevated items that are neither on-trend nor out of style, but classic and long-lasting.

So when it came to searching through hundreds of thousands of products for Amazon Prime Day, I thought it best to keep my all-important filter in mind. It's also worth noting that the retailer isn't just a secret gem for fashion—you'll find amazing deals on beauty tools and skincare, household essentials, tech and gadgets which all happen to make great gifts too—but, you do have to dig a little deeper to find the stylish gems. That's where I come in with my selection of chic, understated fashion buys that will set you up nicely for summer.

With just a few simple items that all come in at under £60 each (most for even less), I've pulled together multiple outfits that look anything but cheap. And the best part is that all the items are interchangeable across the outfits, allowing for a rotation of so many combinations for every occasion. That's what a capsule is all about, right? Remember, Amazon Prime Day sales are available to Amazon Prime members, so there's no time like the present to get ahead of the game and sign up for an Amazon Prime membership here (after all, It's free for 30 days). So sit back, relax, and get ready to recreate some easy outfits without even spending a pound. Keep scrolling to see…

Style Notes: A throw-on trench like this is such a useful wardrobe staple. You can wear it all year round, and for autumn I plan on styling it with a simple top, some reliable Levi's (at an even better price!), and some polished accessories for work and drinks/dinner dates.
