SL is turning one this july! it’s been such a ride: we made many great friends, still can’t believe we actually opened a shop and we’ll probably never be able to shake off the excitement of seeing outfits we picked get so appreciated and loved. to mark SL’s first anniversary, we have a whole slew of exciting things happening from this month on [...]
