This holiday season, TJ Maxx/Marshalls hosted a blogger Secret Santa exchange. What a fun idea! Our challenge was to go to TJ Maxx/Marshalls and spend $50 on our secret santa! It was a rough assignment to have to go shopping… but it was a sacrifice I was willing to make to bring my secret santa a bit of holiday cheer!
I picked up this gorgeous leather laptop case and cashmere Fair Isle gloves for my secret santa!
I'm so annoyed I forgot to take a picture of the inside of the bag – it had the coolest lining! I wrapped it up and sent it off in the mail:
And today, my secret santa gift arrived! My secret santa turned out to be the amazing and talented Jenni Rodosevich of Daily Work It and I-SPY DIY. You may recognize her from her spread in a little fashion mag called InStyle in September! (I totally remember loving that article! I looked in my copy and I have a little bookmark on that page to go back and try her projects!) Look at how cute she even made the box:
Inside I found a sweet note, a pair of fabulous Cynthia Rowley gloves, a copy of InStyle's Beauty Secrets and a GORGEOUS handbag by Steve Madden… with ruffles!
Somehow she got the impression that I love ruffles. Imagine that!
This was such a super fun project – I hope that your fabulously fashionable bargains at T.J. Maxx and Marshalls are just as spectacular this holiday! (Mine sure were! Major scores, but I can't tell you about them until after certain readers open their gifts ;-)
disclosure: i received a gift card to shop for my secret santa courtesy of tjmaxx/marshalls.
After searching the store to make sure I chose the perfect gift, I decided on this necklace and bracelet.. hope she likes it!
My Secret Santa, Whitney of Mommies with Style, gifted me a beautiful candle and a silver strand to add to my jewelry case.


That totally rocks! I liked the gifts you purchased and I liked what you got. Maybe it’s TJMaxx/Marshalls . . . gosh I LOVE those stores for awesome deals on brand/designer names.
I know!!! they have such fabulous stuff. i was SERIOUSLY tempted by a GORGEOUS Kate Spade bag that was there when I was shopping for my secret santa. It was $150… marked down from $400!!! SCORE!
