Ladies- have you ever stopped mid-stride to sniff the air because there’s something lingering that smells just yummy and you want to find out what it is?

This designer collaboration may be a little different though ~ Doo Ri Chung‘s 33-piece capsule collection for Macy’s that is set to launch on February 15th is very wearable by just about anyone! Pictured are two dresses from the collection and I’m excited because she’s going to have dress up/down pieces with non-pricey price points….yay!! I’m ready for a little ‘common sense’ collab, aren’t
