We like fancy things, which is a problem because we're the kind of people where we hate spending a lot of money on ourselves. That is why we absolutely love Quince. We think you will too — and you should absolutely check out this wonderful sponsor of ours.

Quince is a brand that is all about accessible, everyday luxury. From Mongolian cashmere sweaters to menswear to Italian leather handbags to washable silk shirts and dresses, they’ve got a whole line of products that make life just a little bit more luxurious.

But because they cut the middleman out of their manufacturing while maintaining a strong commitment to ethics, they’re able to give you all that for less.

Seriously, all Quince items are 50% to 80% less costly than those of their competitors. They only work with premium fabrics and factories that are committed to safe and responsible manufacturing practices.

I love my Mongolian cashmere sweaters which start at just $50. I got the black V-Neck Sweater and a dark blue Turtleneck Sweater. I love the way they look and feel. These are right up my alley — they’re high quality, highly functional, and so affordable.
