Last week I visited a T.J.Maxx store in a neighboring town that's more upscale and I had the same feeling you guys get when you see my usual photos: This store is so much better than mine! Guess the grass is always greener, right? I thought the handbag selection was better at this store, probably because I spotted a mint green Rebecca Minkoff Mini Mab satchel for $180 (regularly $395) that left a little hole in my heart when I left it on the rack (couldn't justify another RM bag purchase right now). I also spotted lots of great summer sandals by DV Dolce Vita, Sam Edelman, and Steve Madden, plus some cute Essie nail polishes and those Ciate Caviar Manicure sets for $12.99, which I've seen for $25 at Nordstrom (HERE). I also left behind a Coach crossbody bag which was a reasonably priced $80 (compare at $258). Which reminds me, the Coach Semi-Annual sale is going on right now, so be sure to check that out! Anyways, I didn't photograph any clothing items but I did pick up a striped 3/4 length sleeve boatneck tee by Cynthia Rowley for $17, which, upon seeing, prompted my husband to say, "Don't you already have, like, 3 shirts exactly like that?" Yes, dear, yes I do.

More pics after the jump.

Rompers are pretty much the perfect summer staple...aside from the fact that you have to get nekked every time you go to the bathroom. But other than this small inconvenience, they're perfect! Dress them down or up with a quick change of accessories, and you've got an effortless one-piece answer to all your summer dressing dilemmas. I love Taylor Swift's ladylike take on the trend, opting for a demure short sleeve romper in a retro tropical floral print, plus structured bag, belt and mid-heel pumps. Inspired by her look? Then try one of these 5 short sleeve rompers under $50 to get the look.
