When it comes to shopping on a budget, T.J.Maxx does not disappoint. The discount department store even has a lineup of designer items for a steal, but that's not what I want to discuss right now. Rather, I'm here to talk about its stellar selection of trendy beaded handbags for less tan $50, which has every TikTok Maxxinista on my feed totally freaking out. But there's no need to jump in the car and spend the day browsing.

T.J.Maxx/Design for PureWow
T.J.Maxx's website has just as many—if not more—cute and affordable styles up for grabs as its IRL locations, so you could skip the trip and snag a ton of the summer-ready pieces from the comfort of your computer. In fact, I took the liberty of scouring the site to bring you five beautiful options worth adding to your rotation, whether you're a sucker for floral appliqués, pearls or anything beautiful and beaded.

1. Made In India Floral Beaded Satchel
Made In India
This beaded purse is a mo-ment. Between its 3D floral appliqués and sequin accents, it's made to stand out in a sea of basic beige bags. But is it as functional as it is bold and beautiful? Well, guys, it has an interior slip pocket and a magnetic closure, which will help keep your items safely secure, so I'd say heck yeah. As for the $35 price tag? Let's just say it probably doesn't get any better than this, so you know what to do. (Psst: PureWow Senior Commerce Editor Stephanie Maida just nabbed a similar style from the brand and says the quality is "superb.")
2. Made In India Beaded Pearl Bag
Made In India
This knit bag with faux pearl embellishments is available for just $30! I repeat, $30! That said, if I were you, I wouldn't take too long to add this elegant style to my cart. At 10 inches wide and five inches tall, it's the perfect size, and it has a zip closure so you don't have to worry about items flying out when you inevitably take it on the dance floor.
3. Natasia Metallic Flower Tote
Natasia
If you have a vacation coming up, you should buy this tote ASAP. The resort-ready woven design is one thing, but the beaded embellishments and metallic details are another entirely, making it look *so* much more expensive than it really is. In addition to its interior slip pocket and magnetic closure, it'll take any beachy look to the next level—trust me on this.
Nina
This rhinestone-embellished bag was made for your inner glamazon. The style has a half-gold and half-silver design for a truly eye-catching look. It also has a satin lining, so it's just as fancy on the inside as it is on the outside. And, yes, there's an interior slip pocket so you can stay organized when you hit the town. And did I mention that it can be yours for just $25? No, I'm not kidding!
5. Made In India Beaded Cha Cha Bag
Made In India
Want a bag with movement? Look no further than this beaded style, which, as the name suggests, will cha-cha with your every move. Thankfully, it has a magnetic closure, so while the large, seashell-esque beads will shuffle, your stuff won't. The ivory color is also bound to go with all your spring and summer fits, so what are you waiting for? Add this beaded baby to your cart for $30.
