It’s Gettin’ Haute in Here

We’re aware that it’s national Breast Cancer Awareness month, but did you know what today is? It’s Lee National Denim Day. That’s right, all you casual Friday workers out there rejoice, slip on some jeans, and donate $5 in support of breast cancer research. Having raised more than $66 million and recognized by nearly 18,000 companies last year, we’d though we’d jump on this denim covered...
