Amazon is such a powerhouse in online retail that you’d probably have an easier time tracking what it doesn’t sell than what it does. The site lists an estimated 600 million products at any given time, and sells about 12 million of them itself — including luxury brands that cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
But you don’t have to dish out that kind of money to buy an item on Amazon that looks luxurious. The marketplace sells numerous “duplicate” items as well, many of which are designed to look like name-brand clothing, accessories and jewelry. And with National Savings Day approaching soon, it’s the perfect time to put the savings into practice.
Here are nine Amazon dupes that are worth buying because of the money you’ll save based on listings on sites such as Cosmopolitan, Self and the Just Because It’s Pretty-Amazon page.
PUMIEY Long Sleeve Dress
- Price: $36.99 (down from $56.99 previously)
As Cosmopolitan noted, this looks like any other body-hugging dress, except it costs less than half of what’d pay elsewhere. The dress is available in nine colors, is suitable for loungewear or parties and is machine washable.
Verfimaci Trendy Rectangle Sunglasses for Women Man Square Sun Glasses
- Price: $13.99
These vintage rectangular sunglasses have a 4.5 rating from more than 700 Amazon reviewers. The glasses are made from premium plastic and reinforced metal hinges to guarantee a long life, and are suitable to wear pretty much anywhere.
WINSEAD Clogs Dupes Unisex Slip-on
- Price: $29.88
These affordable clogs offer comfort and durability, and pair well with jeans and sweatpants. The sole is made from a cork material, and the clogs are available in five colors.
LADIHAB Acrylic Clutch Beaded Pearl Purse
- Price: $29.10
You don’t have to break the bank to buy an expensive-looking clutch. This beaded pearl purse is suitable for eveningwear and elegant parties — all for a fraction of what you’d pay for a luxury brand. It features a push-lock closure, and is big enough to fit a cellphone.
WYNNQUE Womens Hoodies Oversized Sweatshirt
- Price: $29.99
This zippered long-sleeve pullover sweatshirt was named a top Lululemon pick by the Self website, and has an average Amazon rating of 4.6 stars. It goes with pants, jeans, joggers, sweatpants and leggings, and is suitable for everything from work or parties to hiking, biking and dancing.
LUYAA Lightweight Stretchy Workout Jacket
- Price: $29.96, down from $35.99 previously
This type of workout jacket would normally cost more than $100 because of its sleek styling and soft, stretchy fabric. It is available in more than 10 colors and is machine washable.
utcoco Winter Wool Coat
- Price: $56.99
Warmth, style and comfort shouldn’t cost a lot of money — and you get all three with this value-priced button-down coat. It comes with a built-in scarf in seven colors and an embroidered design.
PANSHI Chunky Gold Hoop Drop Earrings
- Price: $9.99 (down from $12.95)
Here’s another posh-looking Amazon dupe without the posh price. These hoop drop earrings are “lightweight enough to wear every day, and look exactly like the real 14k gold version,” according to Cosmopolitan.
Jessica McClintock Women’s Staci Mesh Wristlet Pouch
- Price: $20.30, down from $39.49
With an Amazon rating of 4.5 stars from more than 1,400 reviewers, this metal mesh evening bag is a hit with most customers — at a much lower price than you’d pay for a similar luxury brand item. It’s large enough to carry essentials for a night out, including your phone, makeup, money and keys. It’s also small enough to make a “cute wedding clutch or bridal clutch,” according to the Just Because It’s Pretty page.
