Click through for her tips on styling a sweatshirt three different ways!

I oftentimes wax poetic about the incredible fashion finds at T.J.Maxx & Marshalls, however the home decor and furnishings are NOT to be missed! So you know what this means? You’ll just have to devote even more time and making sure you peruse every aisle while in the stores!

The on-trend color palette and array of must-have home goods will certainly lure you into experimenting with a new room set up in your abode, or concealing your “I don’t know where to put this” pile with great organizational items, ranging from baskets to boxes, drawer sets, and more. See above for my favorite pieces from the home décor preview, broken into sweet categories, such as “Valentine’s Day/romantic evening for two dining”, “destination: nautical”, “coastal chic”, and “freshen up”.

Pair it with This: Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co Bone Cuff

by Julia DiNardo

First created in the 1970s, Elsa Peretti’s bone cuff for Tiffany & Co has certainly stood the test of time, thanks to its sleek, modern design that seems to never get old. After four decades in existence, it seems like a safe investment, don’t you think? Prices range from $395 for a small cuff in ruthenium (from the platinum family) or black carbon finish over copper styles, to upwards of $23,000 for a solid 18 karat gold version in size large.

That means that this is certainly an item for the bucket list, but you can certainly start fantasizing about what style, size, and wrist (choose from right or left) you’d get, starting now! This cuff really looks amazing with a variety of looks, however I’ve put together some top trends for 2014 (silky blouses, pearl jewelry, mint bags, printed pants) to help transition the cuff into this year.
