Prime Purchases for July

In looking at my July purchases from Amazon I realized that only a handful of items WEREN'T for Alec's dorm. I had planned to share his dorm purchases in a later post complete with details about move-in day so for today I'm just going to share the other items we bought. 


Evan needed new socks and complained that all our local stores only carry either the crew style or the under the ankle ankle socks. So he was thrilled I found these!



During prime days I was on the lookout for some new luggage; all my boys have tiny carry on bags from when they were little and needed something bigger for our 2 week trip. I found these Kenneth Kole suitcases with great reviews and only paid $94 for each of them (I bought 2)! 



I forgot my phone charger and cord behind on our beach trip so I ordered this 2 pack; I am loving having a longer charger cord.


I bought this pretty long sleeve top for under $10 during Prime days and think it will be perfect for fall. The sleeves are sheer and but the front and back are fully lined. 



I have never bought a portable charger for my phone before but have always wanted one so I bought this 2 pack 


My husband needed a new belt so we reordered this one; we were going to buy just the belt itself since his buckle works just fine but it was only a $2 or $3 savings and since his buckle is all scraped up I just went ahead and bought the whole thing. 


I could not find dixie bathroom cups at the store so I bought this 300 pack and I am loving the cute designs. 



I lost one of our flash drives and while I needed a replacement we decided to buy 2 of these so Alec would have one for college too. 



I bought another bottle of this lotion; I just LOVE the scent for fall.



And then Alec bought himself 2 new books

and some Dungeons and Dragons Dice- they are so cool because the glitter moves inside when you roll them sort of like a snow globe. 


and he bought himself this tray/case for his dice sets.

    1. My sons play with their friends online (which is great since they also include their cousin in North Carolina!); it's so fun to hear even just their one sided squeals and giggles and trash talk.

    Those Kenneth Cole suitcases were a great find, and the sheer-sleeved top sounds perfect for fall.

    1. It really is! I couldn't believe when we got home and I realized I had forgotten them behind. I'm SO good about doing a final walk through to make sure everyone has everything...

    1. We sure did! I'm almost tempted to steal the boys' luggage for myself!

  11. I love your blouse, it's very pretty. I have a portable charger but I don't use it much because I don't really go out much, it's handy for holidays though. I love the D&D dice. My daughter collects them too, she'd love these.

    1. Thank you! I figure the portable chargers will come in handy when we lose power (which sadly happens quite often in the fall/winter!).

  12. It is amazing the variety of items you can get from Amazon!

  13. You got some practical things! I need a backup charger that isn't super bulky but I haven't seen great reviews on any, so I'd love to know how yours is!

    1. Obviously they're fairly new but so far so good!

  16. Those suitcases were a real bargain!
    When we went away I forgot my phone charger cord and ended up getting one for £2 from a bargain shop and it was only later I realised it was so long, I wished I'd bought more!
    I love the sound of that body lotion and that Dungeons and Dragons Dice is so pretty. I saw a stall full of them at the Comic con event that we went to, they are amazing. x

  20. I am on the hunt for a new suitcase too, so will check out your link. I love the top! I have a similar one in fall colors and I wear it a lot. I need to figure out what I need for fall. We're traveling so I have got to get myself in gear. Have a nice day!

  21. I love that shirt! It would be a great transitional piece here as we wait for cooler weather. I have a portable charger & bought some for my girls too. They are especially useful on vacation. I used mine today!

    1. I was thinking they'd come in handy on vacation and whenever we lose power.
