  • Springtime is my catalyst to switch out the major players in my closet and take stock

  • of what I have and have n't been wearing over the last year.

  • It's a great time to get a bit more intentional about what you're wearing day to day.

  • And if I'm getting rid of anything, I want to make sure that I'm replacing it with quality pieces.

  • And I've been turning to Quince for that so often recently.

  • Their clothes are made really well and priced even better.

  • So it makes shopping for and wearing their pieces simple.

  • Quince uses premium materials like organic cotton and ultra soft denim,

  • and their lightweight linen pants, dresses, and tops start at just $30.

  • They've also got incredible accessories.

  • I just picked up a cognac Italian leather sling bag, which is a huge upgrade from the crossbody that I have been using.

  • The leather itself is really beautiful, and I also love the gold hardware it comes with.

  • I think it's just such a sleek bag.

  • Everything at Quince is priced 50 to 80% less than similar brands because they work directly

  • with ethical factories and cut out the middlemen.

  • So you're paying for the quality and craftsmanship of the products, but not a brand markup.

  • Refresh your everyday with luxury you'll actually use.

  • Head to quince. com slash intelligence for free shipping on your order and 365 day returns.

  • Now available in Canada too.
