Two of my favorite shopping destinations are having fantastic sales. Vico’s, is having a customer appreciation, 20% off (mention it’s so U!) already reduced items through next week, located in Mission Farms! This upscale boutique has my favorite layering tops.

Their clearance section has a few cashmere sweaters on sale, however, I really am [...]
