1. A grassland, knitted jumper for the perf oversized fit to keep you nice and toasty for the rest of winter. Plus, everyone will be begging to know where you got this ~udderly~ awesome fashion find.
One reviewer said, "Moo-ve over sweater competition!" and I felt it was an obligation to share that with the world.
Promising review:"Basically perfect. The sweater's design is beautiful, and the materials are very soft and thick, definitely has some weight to it folded up, and it makes it feel very nice and high quality. It can get fuzzy but, fortunately, doesn't fall off and get everywhere, so it looks great. Keeps you pretty warm and [very] comfortable, and it's a bit oversized, which is great!" — Erik
2. A roll of app-controlled LED rope lights that'll make it easy to create an array of eye-catching designs that'll keep your guests mesmerized. You can change the colors, control the lights from your phone, and connect it to Alexa or Google Assistant for maximum convenience.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I wanted lights for my new bedroom, but I didn't want the traditional LED strip lights that are super popular. These are so sleek and customizable, I had to take the plunge!... The package came with 25 adhesive clips...Overall, I really love this product, and I hope it lasts a long time!" — Gabriel
3. A precious pair of puffy kitten heels when you live for a one-of-a-kind accessory that'll keep everyone guessing about where you got it. They'll probably say, "Are you ~kitten~ me?!" when you reveal they're from Amazon.

JW Pei is an Asian-, family-owned brand with minimalist purses that are made with sustainable vegan materials.
Promising review:"I absolutely love these sandals! The block heel gives the perfect amount of height without being too high, and the mule style makes them easy to slip on and off. The white color is crisp and clean, and they look great with so many different outfits. Plus, they're really comfortable — I can wear them all day without any pain or discomfort. Overall, I highly recommend these sandals to anyone looking for a stylish and comfortable pair of shoes! 🤍" — Mo
4. A zigzag martini glass set because if you use your bar cart on the reg, it deserves a fabulous *and* affordable upgrade like this one.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising reviews:"Omg I love these martini glasses!! Really elevates your bar cart and adds a fun and modern feel!! The price is so good, and the quality is amazing." — Elizabeth
"Was thrilled with the quality of these glasses given the price point. They look great and seem sturdy. They have a nice weight to them as well - I would recommend!" — Natalie Alshouse
5. A top-rated Baroque mirror when your style involves vintage-inspired decor pieces that look like they set you back much more than they actually did. Take that, expensive Anthropologie mirror.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"All I can say is woooow! This mirror is not only affordable, but the quality is amazing. It's heavy and not cheap-looking. The gold color is not so tacky, and it's done just right. My main concern was receiving a broken mirror, but the packaging was great and arrived in one piece. Don't hesitate to buy this gem; you need it!" — Celeste C
6. A faux-leather tissue box cover that may have you crying tears of joy, considering you had no idea your Kleenex could look THIS dang cute. 🥲
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I wish I made this purchase sooner! This tissue box is chic and the perfect modern addition to any room. It's well made, and I've had no issues with this product in five months. There's a strap to secure the tissue box into the holder. Will definitely purchase more :)" — Liz
7. A very snazzy coffee syrup dispenser set, which comes with 28 premade flavor labels — it's basically a dream come true for caffeine connoisseurs who appreciate a tasty latte with a spritz of pristine organization.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
New England Stories is a small business that specializes in home and kitchen products.
Promising review: "These are worth the money! There are labels for almost every basic syrup as well as blanks so you can label them yourself. If you get a regular-size Torani syrup bottle, it will hold the whole bottle, so you don't need to worry about storing a quarter of the bottle of syrup. SO AESTHETICALLY PLEASING, TOO." — Naomi
8. And this slim set of oil dispensers if you're tired of bland kitchen vessels and want something that'll stand out. These cuties will hold your oils, look good doing it, and take up less space.
Each set includes two glass bottles, two gold dispensers, a funnel, and 37 stain-free labels.
Promising review: "These are so unique from the standard oil storage containers. They also hold a good amount of liquid and come with lots of labels, funnel, and topper. They look so sleek, sturdy, and fit the aesthetic! I love them." — Mikaela O.
9. A set of velvet color block pillow covers to add a splash of color (or two...or three...or four) to the room. Whether you're sprucing up your bedroom, living room, or office, these will deliver some much-needed vibrance to the space.
Amazon
Psst, these are pillow covers. You can grab a set of pillow inserts for $17.99 on Amazon.
Promising review:" These are gorgeous, soft, and well made. I chose the orange and teal combination. Perfect! No loose strings at all, which is rare in itself when you order textiles. I want to get some more. Just luscious!... They are a different color on the other side which adds more interesting contrast. I definitely recommend these. They can work in a casual or more formal setting. The colors are unique as well. I suggest getting inserts the same size if you want a soft pillow, and size up the insert if you want a firmer, puffier look." — Placeholder
10. A dreamy midi corset dress for a go-to flowy number you can happily prance around in, especially knowing you saved over a hundred bucks by snagging it on Amazon. No seriously, the House of CB version retails for a staggering $225. 👀
Check it out on TikTok.
Promising reviews: "Bought this dress because I always wanted to get the House of CB dress but didn't want to pay over $250 for it. It's honestly so good! I got the size large in this since they didn't have my normal sizes, which are small to medium (I have a bigger chest so I tend to size up). But since this has a corset back, I was able to cinch it up really tight and it fit perfectly!" — Chris Herfurth Kennedy
"Beautiful stunning perfection. This may be the best thing I've ever bought on Amazon. The corset in the back makes it fit like it was made for me. It's double-lined and not see-through at all even though it's white. The straps are adjustable, the slit is a good height, and the fabric is slightly stretchy. I cannot say enough good things about it. It did come slightly wrinkly in the skirt, but nothing that a good steam won't fix." — Shoshanna
11. A ~vibrant~ three-tier ring floor lamp because you don't want a regular lamp, you want a cool lamp. This one will turn allll the heads that walk into the room while providing ample lighting to the space.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
You can adjust the brightness with a simple tap!
Brightech is a California-based small business that specializes in home lighting.
Promising review: "The light is nice! It's a unique-looking light. I love how it has three different settings so you can adjust the brightness. It fits perfectly with my reading chaise and goes well with the rest of my living room decor. The only con I have is I wish the cord was clear instead of black, it sticks out. Other than that, I love the light. I'd definitely recommend it to others." — Carmelita Joy
12. A pair of LED stained glass bulbs so you can fill any room with an abundance of color so rich, it'll that'll feel like it belongs on a movie set.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
13. A pair of crossover flared leggings, which may remind you of the Aerie version. Say hello to this affordable alternative with a buttery-soft fabric that literally *hundreds* of reviewers are absolutely feral over.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I want every color. These are SO [cute] and comfortable. I don't think I've taken them off since I bought them. I get so many compliments. You definitely need these!!" — Darby Hayford
14. A new duvet because let's face it, you spend a LOT of time in bed so you want it to look *and* feel good. Freshening up your space with new linens is an easy and affordable upgrade worth making — courtesy of Amazon.
Amazon
The full, queen, and king sets come with one duvet cover and two pillow shams. The twin set comes with one duvet cover and one pillow sham.
Promising review: "Absolutely beautiful! I got the terracotta color, and it's very pretty. The fabric is soft, and it's very easy to use, and the zipper is well-hidden. Extremely satisfied!!!!" — Dawn Lynn
15. An ultra-soft faux-fur rug if you wanna wake up in the morning and immediately treat your feet to a glorious sensation. Really, what's worse than getting outta bed and being met with the ice-cold floor?
Amazon
Promising review:"My parents went to Europe and sat outside on furs like these and now they do the same at home. They live in the mountains in Utah. They put these on their metal patio chairs and then cover themselves with a blanket outside in the winter. The faux furs keep your backside insulated and then topped with the blanket they are able to have cocktail hour(s) on the deck all year long! It's honestly pretty sweet and the dog gets her own to lie on when she's outside too." — Amazon Customer
16. Some stylish teardrop earrings your friends won't stop asking about until you spill the deets. Whether you choose to tell them you snagged these babies for mere dollars in comparison to the pricey Bottega Veneta ones is up to you.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"These are absolutely BEAUTIFUL! If I didn't know any better, I would have said these are the Bottega Drop Earrings. I personally love the smaller ones. I have not ordered the larger ones yet. Smaller ones are truthfully the perfect size. We love a good alternative because who has $800+ to spend on the Bottegas." — Brittany
17. A pretty amber reed diffuser so you can add a hint of elegance to your home and a whole lot delicious of fragrance, which is always money well spent if you ask me.
Amazon
PS: it comes from a small biz! Sweet Water Decor is a woman-owned, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania–based shop that specializes in home decor + gifts.
Promising review:"I recently tried the Sweet Water Decor Sandalwood and Rose Amber Reed Diffuser Set, and I'm impressed! The scent is a perfect blend of sandalwood and rose amber, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. T he diffusers effectively distribute the fragrance, and the elegant design adds a touch of style to any space. Highly recommend!" — MJ
Price: $27.99 (available in 11 scents)
18. An adjustable mini belted pack — yes, there is such a thing as a fashionable fanny pack without a hefty price tag. If you've been longing for the Lululemon one, this is a much cheaper (and dare I say, cuter) Amazon alternative.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
BuzzFeeder Elizabeth Lilly also owns this — she packed it as her only bag for a trip to busy trip to Iceland, and not only did it hold a ton and keep her hands free, it easily fit around her waist over her outerwear.
Promising review: "TikTok told me this compared to Lululemon, and it's true, it is. Love this little bag! And the price — you can't beat it." — Jolie
19. A rattan plant stand you'll smile at fondly whenever you see it because it's *such* a step up from those boring white pots you're trying to eradicate from your life.
BuzzFeeder Amanda Davis says: "This was an impulse purchase of my own doing and it was so worth it! I got the medium size for myself and it's tall, durable, and fills up an empty corner very very nicely. The plant holder is really well made and holds my humongous Birds of Paradise without a budge, so it's definitely worth the price."
Kouboo is a family-owned small biz that produces unique home decor items, all made from natural materials sourced around the world.
Promising review:"I absolutely ADORE this plant stand! It is unbelievably gorgeous, the perfect size, wonderfully sturdy and stable (level feet to the floor), and is solidly built. Color is true to advertised photos. Arrived in excellent condition (was very securely packaged). While I found it a bit pricey, it absolutely delivers in style, function, and quality. Desperately wanting a second one!!! 🤞🏼" — N.M.
20. A darling tulle dress people will downright *refuse* to believe came from Amazon — it's just too good to be true, right? Wrong! This is an ideal party dress so you'll never run out of reasons to wear it. Weddings, birthdays, baby showers, you name it.
Amazon, www.amazon.com
Promising reviews:"I got this dress for my engagement photo shoot and I love it! My fiancé loved it, our photographer loved it, and I've gotten countless compliments about it when I posted some of our pictures on social media. It's surprisingly comfortable for a dress with a corset, that I couldn't wear a bra with (not the norm for me)... This dress made me feel like a princess! It was a very windy day, but it just made the dress flow and billow in all the right ways. I'm seriously obsessed with it!" — Kate N
"This dress is made of dreams. The quality of the dress is incredible. I even gave them my measurements and had it custom-made. It fits like a glove! The shipping speed is accurate as well! I felt like a fairy princess for my birthday! For all you cottagecore [fans] this is a must! 🥹❤️" — Alex
21. A six-piece set of handcrafted ceramic dinner plates if you're ready to let go of those plastic plates you've had for years. These will look so much more attractive on your table that you may just have to splurge for the full set.
Amazon
Promising review:"Best of the best!!! We hosted a large multi-course dinner party and bought these plates for it. These plates are so perfect for everything!!!! I'm so so so in love with them!" — Mark Ravanilla
Price: $49.95 for a set of six (available in two plate sizes, five colors, and in a set of four)
You can also buy matching salad plates, cereal/soup bowls, and pasta bowls! There's also a full set available that comes with six of each: dinner plates, salad plates, and cereal/soup bowls.
22. A decorative match holder for candle fanatics who have no intention of joining team lighter anytime soon. Plus, this will just look really chic on your side table and serve as an instant conversation starter when people ask where you got it.
Amazon
Promising review: "I have been looking for a unique matchstick holder for my guest rooms and coffee table and this was just what I was looking for! It is much larger than I expected (about the size of an average candle) but it is still beautiful! The bottle is glass and filled with white tip matches." — SINGHSingh
23. A breathtaking Victorian-style bed frame, aka a match made in heaven for anyone who wants their bed to be the focal point of the room! This stunner looks more expensive than it is, which is never a bad thing.
Amazon
Promising review: "Excellent quality for such an affordable price. This bed frame is solid. The gold finish looks beautiful and it looks way more expensive than it is. It was also so easy to put together. There were a lot of pieces, but it was simple and all the holes lined up perfectly." — Jc
24. An oversized sweater-vest to level up your go-to collared button-down with a touch of sophisticated elegance. You're about to make "library chic" a thing with this trendy 'fit.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: " I've gotten a ton of compliments on this vest and been asked where I bought it twice. It's heavyweight so it hangs nicely. The fit is boxy and loose, which is what I wanted. Looks great with high-waisted jeans!" — R. Flip
25. A cut crystal–style cocktail shaker so cocktails at home feel more expensive than they are — even if you're just about to change into PJs and couch rot for hours.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I am so thrilled with this shaker. It's beautiful and can sit out on my bar cart, is super functional, and doesn't leak. It's a conversation starter and everyone who has seen it loves the way it looks and asks where I got it. I will say, the bottom is quite heavy and this makes shaking a bit awkward but once you get used to it it's no big deal." — Amanda B
26. A chic, clever entryway shoe organizer worthy of a double-take when you see the shockingly low price tag for such a high-quality piece. It has two flip-out drawers that can hold up to a dozen pairs of shoes! It'll look way better in your foyer than the giant shoe pile currently occupying it.
www.amazon.com, Amazon
Check out this TikTok of the shoe organizer! Of course, you could also position two of these side by side if you have the space.
These feature interior shelves that can be adjusted or removed, depending on the type and size of shoes you want to store. The graphic above (and on the listing) shows what shoe sizes can be accommodated!
Promising review: "Obsessed with this cabinet. The quality is great for the price and it's so stylish and doesn't take up much space for the storage it provides! I added little hooks on the side to be able to hang dog leashes. The only con would be if you have large feet you aren't going to be able to fit as many pairs of shoes in. My size 10s fit just right, but my husband's shoes sometimes have to go sideways so can only fit one to three pairs in the bottom drawer. But still better than on the floor!" — Nancy
27. An ~iconic~ bodycon jumpsuit with flared bottoms that is strikingly similar to the Aritzia version but at a much more reasonable price. It's great for running errands, low-impact workouts, or simply struttin' yourself. No one will have a clue how much $$$ you saved!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I never leave reviews but this jumpsuit deserves one!! It is an exact alternative for the Aritzia flared jumpsuit. I actually even like this one more than my one from Aritzia!! The length on this is SO much better. I am 5'7 and the Aritzia one just barely goes past my ankles… I am wearing platform sandals with this one and there's still extra length! Also I am 28 weeks pregnant and a small fits my bump, SO stretchy!! Definitely ordering more colors." — Stuart W.
28. A marble board wire cheese cutter when you're eager to impress guests with your upscale ~taste~ in kitchen gadgets. It's also great for individually slicing that block of cheese you plan to eat in one sitting but in gradual moderation, of course.
www.amazon.com, Amazon
Check out a TikTok of the cheese slicer in action.
Promising review:"My mother-in-law had purchased one last year and I tried hers at Christmas and fell in love with how easy it was to use. We have a lot of get-togethers with friends and cheese is a staple appetizer in our house. So I purchased my own and have been using it weekly since. It cuts easily and it's mostly easy to clean. Sometimes cheese gets stuck in the crack but some scrubbing with a small brush usually does the trick." — Jessica
29. A dazzling cocktail ring set everyone will ooh and ahh at because it looks like it came straight from the most extravagant jewelry store in town. That's Amazon for ya, baby!
