My apologies for the terribly punny title, but it’s true: I am smitten with I’m Smitten! I’ve wanted to get Antler Girl ever since I saw it for women at Little Paper Planes; I don’t know why it took me so long to finally find their site! I’m glad I did, though, because the site is brimming with merchandise (like handbags and stationary, in addition to t-shirts) on which I’m Smitten’s signature human-animal chimeras are printed.
The packaging is a nice touch. The tee came wrapped in a sheet of pink tissue paper (adorned with a happy, dancing, ice cream-carrying teddy bear) to keep it clean and fancy. Very cute!
Halftones prints are relatively uncommon, so the dark blue halftone print of Antler Girl (which is well printed, by the way!) makes it more of a rarity, and I feel like the design wouldn’t work as just a line drawing. The print is pretty thin, so the light blue shirt (which feels really really good, even better than American Apparel) is still flexible. There is a big ribbon over the regular tag, but it is so silky smooth that it doesn’t irritate the skin. Even though the I’m Smitten website says it’s printed on a sky blue Alternative Apparel raw edged reverse crew tee, there is nothing reverse nor raw edged about it; in fact, it looks to be Alternative Apparel’s basic crew tee, so don’t worry if you’re not into the inside-out look.
