Amazon Best Buys - February 2019
Happy February! Did anyone else feel like January lasted 296 days? Longest month EVERRRRR. It was pretty quiet on the blog last month while I was getting back into a routine with school, work & life in general after the holidays. But, I have some exciting content planned for you all, starting with this highly requested blog post. Many of you have asked me to start sharing more of my top picks on Amazon, and today I am starting a new blog series called "Amazon Best Buys". This particular post is all about fashion, but the content will vary with each Amazon post. If there are any particular categories you want to see me focus on in future posts, please comment below or SEND ME AN EMAIL.
(Side note before we get started: I make a very small commission when you purchase directly through the links in this blog post. However, if you check out through the Amazon app or a different browser, I do not make any commission. I only share this because the little commission that I make is what allows me to keep Smart Southern Style running. Thank you for supporting my little business!)
Every piece featured in this blog post is an item I already own and love. And the best part is that nothing is priced over $30! We will start with this light weight BLACK VEST. I have shared it on my INSTAGRAM a few times and many of you buy it each time I post it. I love how versatile this piece is! I have it styled under a long sleeve shirt here and you could also wear it under a turtleneck sweater in colder months. As it gets warmer, layer it over a simple cotton dress, tank top or basic tee. It runs true to size, comes in tons of colors and you can't beat the price at around $16.
This EMBROIDERED TOP has been another favorite of Smart Southern Style readers. It looks so expensive with the beautiful embroidery, but it is only $26. It snaps up the front, so you could also leave it open with a tee or tank underneath to style it more like a jacket. I find that it runs true to size.
These JOGGER SWEATPANTS so insanely comfy and soft! I wear them a few times a week because I love them so much. I find that they run true to size and you can't beat the $22 price for this quality too!
The FLEECE PULLOVER that I am wearing with the joggers and in the photo above is the softest piece of clothing I own! I have purchased similar pullovers before but they were scratchy and uncomfortable on the inside. This one has the same fleece on the inside as the outside so it is so comfy. It is only $24 and runs a little oversized, but I would say to stick with your usual size for outerwear. (I am wearing a medium.) I love it so much I got it in two different colors!
This SHORT SLEEVE EMBROIDERED TOP was one of the most purchased items on the blog last summer. It looks way more expensive than the $19 price with the embroidery detail and fun tassels. I bought it in blue last year and love it so much that I just purchased it in pink! This would look cute layered under a cardigan in the cooler months. It runs small and doesn't have any stretch, so I would recommend sizing up.
This LEOPARD CARDIGAN has also been popular when I have posted it on Instagram. It comes in several color options and runs true to size. With a price under $30, I am tempted to get a second color!
Last but not least, this LEATHER BELT is one of my most worn Amazon purchases. It is reversible with brown on one side and black on the other. It has a gold buckle and looks very similar to a designer belt but only costs $25. Be sure to follow the size guidelines to make sure you get the correct size. Mine is 105cm for reference.
