A Big Tees

Your daughter’s taken recycling to heart, pledging to wear the same tee all week.

And though you appreciate her dedication, her other clothes are going to waste.

Try filling her closet with Little Overcoat, a local collection that whips together upcycled dresses and shirts by combining lowbrow tees (think Pillsbury Doughboy, Mr. Bubble) with lovely European linens and vintage fabrics.

Each piece combines as many as five scraps into one spectacular, colorful creation. We especially like the floral-print cross-top dresses and triple-tier peasant skirts. And the Incredible Hulk shirt embellished with green ruffles is perfect for your strong little lady.

So she can stay committed to the cause and mix up her outfits.

It’s an offer you can’t refuse.
