My Spring Picks with TJ Maxx

All pieces from layout via TJ Maxx. My outfit: Shoes and Shirt via TJ Maxx.

I’m so excited to be partnering with one of my favorite stores, T.J. Maxx, for the opening of their brand new Brooklyn location! On Thursday, May 1st, T.J. Maxx will be celebrating the opening of their newest store, in the famed Offerman Building at 503 Fulton Street in Brooklyn, NY. 
To celebrate this new location, I’ll be at there on opening day from 12-2PM showcasing my curated picks and offering spring fashion-advice – so come on by, as I always love meeting my readers! As you know, I’ve been a fan of T.J. Maxx for a long time because I can always find those high quality, brand name fashions that I love for unbelievable prices and this new store will undoubtedly be stocked with just that! I got a sneak peek at the goods and picked out some of my favorite spring pieces, which you can see above: graphic prints, structured leather handbags, linen pants, jeweled shoes, like the ones I’m wearing and more…

Last but not least, one reader will have a chance to win a $250 gift card, which they can hopefully come use that day! I would love to meet you and help you shop around for some new spring designer goodies. 
To enter: leave your name and contact below telling me what makes you a Maxxinista! One winner will be announced on Tuesday, April 29th. 
Good luck and hoping to see you there!

    Love that top and shoes!

    I love TJ Maxx, because I always look for bargains and very rarely buy anything full price. It is so exciting to find a great item on sale. Makes shopping way more fun! I wish I could be there to meet you Thursday. Unfortunately, my schedule won't allow that to happen:(. Hopefully some other time!

    Check out my new outfit post when you get a chance. I would love to hear your thoughts!

    Absolutely LOVE your heels!
    I consider myself a maxxinista because I go to TJ atleast twice a week to check out their latest arrivals. I love shopping there not only because of the great selection and amazing prices, but because I live in a smaller city and don't want to bump into someone wearing the same top/whatever as me — so it's nice there's only so many of each piece. When I scoop something great up I typically shriek because it's like my own little treasure that I feel no one else will have ;D

    Have fun at your event!

  • Ashley Foguel

    I consider myself a Maxxinista because I can find great shoes and staples at an affordable price, as a college student price is a Huge barrier to expression via fashion so finding an outlet that allows me to experiment is truly amazing.

    I've been a Maxxinista since I was a little girl going to TJ Maxx with my mom. I immigrated to the US from Russia with my parents when I was 2 1/2 and we were never able to spend a lot on clothes since we were starting over in a new country. All my promotional code scavenging and sale stalking now is a direct result of those TJ Maxx days when my mom and I were always looking for fabulous finds, but on a budget!

    As a college student attempting to break into the fashion and blogging world, TJ Maxx is a lifesaver for me! I'm able to wear great pieces from Vince, Joie and Rag & Bone and not break the bank! Last week I bought a gorgeous distressed denim vest by Rag & Bone and can't wait to style it constantly this spring and summer!

  • Christina Lau

    TJ Maxx was my first employer! I worked as a sales associate during my junior and senior years of high school and while it was a demanding job, I really enjoyed learning the ins and outs of the business! What made me a Maxxinista was having the ability to help other Maxxinistas find the perfect outfits! I always loved giving styling suggestions and finding that great piece amidst the huge selection. I feel like I've come full circle because my recent internship at Nautica required close contact with TJ Maxx buyers. It's like I've been at each end of the spectrum, and I loved both!

    I love the pants you chose especially — I need those for summer! Lovely outfit as always 🙂

    Best,

    I am the epitome of a Maxxinista! I adore fashion but not the prices of the pieces I fall in love with. If there is an item I really want, I'll do my research and will surely find that item on sale or a coupon for the store I found it at — I rarely pay full price for designer duds anymore. I can still be on trend with this season's items but for less! A little Shopstyle and Googling goes a long way! Also, I use Ebates, which pays you a percentage back for shopping through their website. (Last year I earned $125 in cash back! Try it!)

    I love finding high end pieces at affordable prices, so I always make sure to check out the TJ Maxx family. I've found some of my favorite pieces there. The steals I've found inspire me to get more creative with my outfits because I can take chances on pieces I wouldn't with a steeper price tag

    I felt in love with TJ Maxx the first time I was in New York. Now I am hunting for their bargains every time I'm in the US (too bad we don't have TJ Maxx in Germany) and would be thrilled to visit the new Brooklyn store in a couple of days when I am in NY again…

    TJ Maxx has a great variety of clothing. I love the mix and match of high and low price points, both of which are usually affordable. But along with the clothes, one of the big reasons I keep going back is the home goods section. You can always find a great variety of frames, vases, high quality sheets, cooking ware and home accessories. I love it all!

  • Stephy

    I have been a Maxxinista for as long as I can remember. It is where you can find champagne taste on a beer budget, and even if you are not on a beer budget, T.J. Maxx is where you can find amazing pieces without having to pay the full (and sometimes insane) retail price!

    I Love TJ Maxx! So happy they are opening another location near me! (I was really over the hike to 19th street). I'm a Maxxinista because I work in a nonprofit, and while I love what I do and find the work meaningful, the pay isn't great. I try to look my best every day to be taken seriously by colleagues and TJ Maxx helps me find great deals on designer clothes for work. (I also love to stock up on great accessories- bags and shoes especially- to help make my wardrobe more versatile)

    As a lifetime Maxxinista, shopping at TJ Maxx not only means finding amazing designer pieces at a fraction of the price, but to me, also symbolizes family. Shopping at TJ Maxx with my mother and younger sister is one of our main ways of spending quality time together. Shopping for each other, as well as for our father that's patiently waiting for us at home 🙂

    Coco Chanel once said, "Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening". These are words I live by every single day as I get dressed and I love that T.J. Maxx is such a great means thru which you can build a wardrobe that's not just current, but filled with classic, timeless pieces! And that's exactly what makes me a Maxxinista- having that opportunity to have a "happening" closet that's affordable, without sacrificing quality and style!

You blog is truly inspiring and over the past few weeks I've been thinking about starting a fashion budget blog, just as something fun to do after my teaching day ends.

    Hello! My name is Alexandra D'Anna and I am absolutely a maxxinista. Living on an undergraduate budget, and also being obsessed with fashion and style creates a problem of having to express myself through style…on a budget. I have a fashion blog, as well, and in pretty much every single post there is at least one item from TJ Maxx. Without TJ Maxx I wouldn't be able to express myself through style the way I like to. It would mean a lot to be able to grab some amazing new pieces for my spring and summer wardrobe.

    Thanks!!

    I have been a Maxxanista since my mom introduced me to heaven on Earth when I was a little girl. AS an adult, I visit Maxx so often the sales associates and managers know my name and I know theirs. My friends always beg me to go to Maxx with them to help them score awesome deals and put together outfits or accessorize their living spaces in ways they wouldn't have dreamt up on their own. My love affair with the store will never lend as long as they continue having great prices and fantastic pieces to choose from!

    Love your blog, Helena!

    Being a Maxxinista means knowing having the confidence that YOU make the outfit, and good clothes at GREAT prices are the accessory. It means not copying looks but having the savvy to know how to personalize trends to make them YOU.

    TJ Maxx is great for finding designer finds at non-designer prices. I love a good deal – it makes the outfit so much sweeter.
