If you’re already stocked up on summer styles, don’t sweat. We found lots of seasonally transitional deals in today’s sweep through the internet’s sale bins. There’s a lightweight shirt jacket that’s fit for layering, a top-rated backpack beloved by college students, and a nourishing hair mask for fighting post-storm frizz.
With another month or two (or three) of warm weather left, you won’t regret swapping out your duvet cover for this cooling linen-blend one — especially for 30 percent off.
Today only, Goodreads Choice award winners and nominees’ e-books are just $5 or less at Amazon. We recommend picking up Raven Leilani’s Luster, which Strategist writer Tembe Denton-Hurst “sped through” in just a few sittings.

If you need something a little smaller, here’s an excellent deal on a mini backpack from Eastpak, a.k.a. “the new Fjällräven.

Some Paris Hilton–esque sunglasses to meet the Y2K fashion moment.
Dermstore’s Anniversary Sale is still going strong, with discounts of up to 25 percent on lots of things we’ve written about before.

Madewell is taking 30 percent off select styles with code GOFORIT, including this fall-ready shirt jacket that’s still in stock in sizes XXS to XL.
And this terry cloth bucket hat that’ll dry much faster (and feel much softer) than a regular cotton cap.
