Thomas Lee Ltd. Gifting Event

Thomas Lee Ltd. was one of the first brands I connected with after launching Chic Luxuries. I can still recall the conversation with Tom. I had just purchased "store bought" sheets for the first time in many years and couldn't' believe how disappointed I was in the quality and "scratchy" feel against my skin for the price I paid.  I remember as I hung up the phone how impressed I was with Tom's knowledge of his business and how delighted I was with the sheets when they arrived. Over the years I have come to realize Thomas Lee's quality is unsurpassed, we have featured them many times, even selecting their sheets for our Favorite Things.

I still have the original set they sent me 4-1/2 years ago, I've washed them countless times and put them right back on my bed as soon as they come out of the dryer. While the store bought set has shrunk, faded, and still feel as "scratchy" as the day I bought them, the Thomas Lee sheets look brand new and, amazingly, get softer and softer as time passes. 

Made of 100% pima cotton and ultra-fine, ring-spun yarn, Thomas Lee's PerfectCale 500 thread count sheet sets are available in Full, Queen, King, and California King in ivory or white starting at $215 {see below for 20% off code}. Each set includes a flat sheet, fitted sheet and 2 pillow cases. Although they are pricier than that "store bought" set I purchased years ago, there is no comparison in quality, softness, or durability. Sheets and pillowcases are also sold individually. Other items in the Thomas Lee collection include luxurious pillows, comforters, mattress pads, towels and bath rugs. Shipping is complimentary on orders of $150 or more to the lower 48 states. Chic Luxuries' readers can save 20% off their entire purchase by entering CL20 at checkout, visit thomasleeltd.com. If you're participating in this gifting event, please follow Thomas Lee Ltd. on Facebook and/or Twitter. 

Chic Giveaway! ~ The very generous, Thomas and Lee, are once again gifting their luxurious PerfectCale sheets to a lucky reader. The winner will have their choice of color and size. The prize is valued at up to $255.
