I think I would have liked the Land's End tees better one size up ... but that's the problem with shopping the clearance section, sizes are limited!Carriehttp://petalbypetal11.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860217430618798778.post-4898378650806403912013-05-06T13:09:36.717-07:002013-05-06T13:09:36.717-07:00Thank you, Erin!

I think a little hemming would make them perfect! :)Carriehttp://petalbypetal11.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860217430618798778.post-55626911706630451792013-05-06T13:08:28.913-07:002013-05-06T13:08:28.913-07:00Thanks, Ally!

I wasn't intending to buy a yellow tee at all, as I wanted to get classic navy and white, but I think it's so much fun that I'll have to keep it. :)Carriehttp://petalbypetal11.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860217430618798778.post-6771080769619918832013-05-05T07:56:16.194-07:002013-05-05T07:56:16.194-07:00I find t-shirts to be so versatile so I own a few ...I find t-shirts to be so versatile so I own a few that are more fitted (for wearing under work cardigans) and more loose and boxy (for more casual days). What I dislike the most about some t-shirts are that they shrink when I wash them. I haven't found that to be a problem with Gap t-shirts though. I will have to try Land's End t-shirts now too, thanks!Vanghttp://www.mylovelylist.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860217430618798778.post-11786890839194436512013-05-03T10:49:35.913-07:002013-05-03T10:49:35.913-07:00The Gap fit is definitely better.

I'm impressed that yours has lasted so long. :)<br />I will definitely be keeping the yellow tee - it's one of my favorite colors right now and I think it's perfect for summer!Carriehttp://petalbypetal11.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860217430618798778.post-60080013923902200882013-05-02T01:12:59.586-07:002013-05-02T01:12:59.586-07:00Oh man, the perfect tee shirt is worthy addition t...Oh man, the perfect tee shirt is worthy addition to any wardrobe I would say that Land's End tees tend to live FOREVER, I have one that was a hand-me-down from my godmother that I got when I was ten, so it's at least 25 years old. There's pretty pretty normal across the board for all of the Land's End stuff I have, it really just lasts forever and it pretty well made. Gap tee seem like they do decently as well, I have a couple that are about five years old and they're still in okay shape but I mostly only use them as barn-wear.<br />I really,really love the yellow tee on you, that color is amazing on you! It seems like it would work with a ton of stuff in wardrobe so I say keep it!
