I’ve found that at times I get so wrapped up in the gift selection process that I can leave the purchasing of the packaging goods for the last minute. Luckily, T.J.Maxx and Marshalls help me to be more prepared for gift giving, since the stores provide a wide selection of bows and ribbons, gift boxes, tissue paper, gift bags, wrapping paper and more, conveniently found alongside my favorite finds. The packaging supplies in-store are always well-edited and come in both traditional and super sleek prints and colors, so that from start to end, my gifts look GOOD! I want you to also be able to partake in easily completing your gift giving routine this holiday season by discovering the great packaging offerings, therefore, I’m giving away a $25 T.J.Maxx and Marshalls gift card! See below for the fast and easy rule of entry – good luck!

Finding Meaningful (and Useful) Holidays Gifts this Season
[You never know what brands you’ll run into; it may just be one of your favorites!]
I’ve always had very, very good luck at knocking out a bunch of gifts in one fell swoop at T.J.Maxx, Marshalls and HomeGoods around the holiday season, and sometimes I enter the store with a mission and specific gift in mind, but occasionally I will just rely on the mix of inventory to hint at what I should get, which can be thousands of items each week. With that kind of ratio, gift inspiration is bound to strike! I love that I can discover quality gifts for newborns and 90-year-olds alike at one place, making it a year-round destination for presents for loved ones and of course, myself! I even outfitted my dog-niece, Beatrice, in an adorable reindeer outfit from T.J.Maxx last Christmas.

Nesting and Partying with T.J.Maxx and Marshalls
My astrological sign is a cancer which means I have the trait of being a homebody; a pretty spot on assessment, and I think a lot of people, cancer and non-cancers alike, have been spending an excessive amount of time indoors this winter. As a result, evaluating home décor and furnishings is only natural, and the desire to revive and refresh your living space at a great price totally makes sense. Recently I went to the T.J.Maxx and Marshalls Home Preview Event, which provided a bunch of great styling and trend ideas to duplicate in the home, which is easy because all of their items are so accessible and affordable!
See the slideshow above for my favorites, which include vibrant picture frames, luxurious throws, cool desk supplies and organizational tools, seasonal items that will come in handy once the warmer months hit for entertaining and entertainment, like scuba, swim, and barbeque gear, decorative dinnerware, and of course, some on-trend furniture.

Sneak Peek: Spring 2015 at T.J.Maxx & Marshalls
I’ve got plenty of advice on how to properly get through this winter in the most stylish way imaginable, but with fashion, we must always look ahead, and in this case, to spring 2015. I spent the morning with my friends from T.J.Maxx and Marshalls building up my anticipation on what I can expect from the trends, and the pieces that exemplify them once spring is finally here.
The themes/trends that were broken out include black and white, sahara, shades of spring, pretty prints, tropical and sporty. There’s something for everyone, at price points to please and designer apparel and accessories sure to make you do a double take at the price tag. See the slideshow above for my favorite pieces from the preview; there’s certainly a lot to love (that mint pleated skirt? AMAZING!).
