Amazon Prime Day is happening on July 16 and 17 this year, but what you may not know is that thousands of products are already discounted by up to 89 percent at the retailer. Included in these deals are items that I personally love, like the 2nd Gen Apple Watch SE (now under $200) and this roomy Vera Bradley belt bag (60 percent off), as well as decor I've had my eye on for months—Rifle Paper Co. makes the prettiest wall art and floral rugs.

The sales on fashion and travel finds are particularly impressive as long as you know where to look. This flirty puff-sleeve blouse (44 percent off) is in my cart to pair with jeans or white pants for days out with friends, and this colorful smocked dress (now under $50) is ideal for summer parties and vacations. Speaking of trips, replace your old suitcase with this best-selling Samsonite carry-on and checked luggage set while it's $116 off.

There are also many popular tech accessories discounted ahead of Amazon Prime Day, and these deals are major sellout risks since they don't happen often. While it's $100, take advantage of this Ring doorbell/video combination that pairs the device's classic chime with a best-in-class camera for extra security. While you're shopping for essentials, leave worrying about your phone's battery in the past with this 78 percent-off portable power bank (bonus: It charges two devices simultaneously). And meet your fitness goals with a little help from this walking pad while saving a whopping $2,050.
