OK, so there might be six more weeks of winter, but spring will be here before you know it! Take advantage of winter sales and new store openings to stock up for next season. Sure, you'll have to start shaving your legs again (boo!) but you won't have to
bundle up so tight that you can't move (yay!).
For a limited time, 20 percent of online and in-store sales will go to Friends of Chop, supporters of the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Proceeds will go toward CHOP's Child Life, Education and Creative Arts Therapy program.
