You probably already know, but it bears repeating: Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days is less than one week away. The mega sale is kind of like a holiday—and this week, the festivities kicked off early with plenty of under-the-radar, pre-Prime Day markdowns.

I was scanning the early deals for fall fashion staples and discovered that Levi's 311 Shaping Skinny Jeans are now 60 percent off. While skinnies are definitely making a comeback, the brand's baggy wide-legs and bootcut styles are also on sale.

In addition to denim deals, there are also a number of shoe markdowns. You can never go wrong with a classic white sneaker, and the viral Dr. Scholl's Time Off sneakers are an immediate add-to-cart while they're 40 percent off. If you're looking for something more fall-specific, consider these knee-high boots or Franco Sarto's now-$55 loafers.

Tons of beauty essentials are now at lower-than-ever prices, too, like the best-selling $18 Advanced Clinicals firming retinol lotion. I'm also eyeing this hair-regrowth duo and RoC's wrinkle-smoothing under-eye cream.

I'll still be shopping Prime Day on October 8 and 9, but there's no reason not to get a head start. Find more early deals, here.
