Beautiful Jess Lim is our Interview twenty! Jess works in the marketing/creative industry and outside of work, crochet's (like really well), loves to travel and eat good food. Jess has been a loyal customer since the beginning and totally gets what we are about... "What drew me to L'aura the Label was the limited items of clothing and how there weren't always new items/styles being produced constantly. It let me know that each piece of item was well thought through and intentional as they weren't aiming to always keep up with trends." Jess's favourite L'aura the Label piece is the Lime green Dea Shirt!x
