Last week, we posted fashion advice from Sonya Cosentini, Style Expert for T.J. Maxx., Part I.
Today we're going with Part II.
T.J. Maxx is a discount retailer where you can find the same clothes being sold in department and retail stores, but for up to 60% off the suggested retail price.
It's a really fun place to shop. You never know what you're going to find!
Personally, I love shopping there because I always come away with great bargains on high-quality merchandise.
We asked Sonya Cosentini, T.J. Maxx's Style Expert:
What's the best way to shop T.J. Maxx?
The best
way to shop an off-price retailer like T.J. Maxx is to look and have an open
mind. Go in with an idea of what you want, but be open to trying new variations
of that look -- maybe a different color or style.
It's all about looking for
something you didn't know you were going to find. There are so many incredible
designer-name merchandise on the racks, that you just never know what you'll
find.
Go through magazines or look
online for the kind of styles you might like to try, and then head into a T.J.
Maxx store to find those similar trends.
And shop an off-price retailer first, or
even after you have a look around the mall, because you will see the same
merchandise at up to 60% less! So there will be more money left in your wallet for
something else you need!
What should girls and guys wear if they want to be casual but hip?
The best
thing about this season is that there is so much variety out there in terms of
styles and trends, so teens can feel free to express themselves through their
fashion choices.
The styles out there, for the most part,are all comfortable
and can be dressed up or down.
Leggings and denim for girls are great ways to
be hip and casual, especially when paired with a long, boho-chic dress or rock 'n' roll t-shirt. It will allow them to express their individuality, be on
trend, and still feel casual.
Even a tunic dress with opaque tights can be made
casual by throwing on a cropped jacket or flats!
Guys' style
this year is all about comfort and casual.
The plaid shorts, graphic tees and
denim all can be worn to school or out on the weekends.
To dress it up, they
can pair the shorts with a button-down, or try a button-down layered with a
sweater over jeans.
As a Style Expert for T.J. Maxx, what's your best-ever find there?
Personally,
every time I buy something at T.J. Maxx I seem to feel like it's my best-ever
find!
It's like a treasure hunt, and when you find that special piece it's an
incredible feeling -- especially knowing how much I've saved by buying it at an
off-price retailer.
My most recent amazing find was a high-end designer handbag in this gorgeous jewel tone -- for almost half the price that I saw it at a department store!
Thanks, Sonya! See you among the racks! --Belissa
