Spring is on everyone’s minds, and stores are starting to show short sleeved shirts for warmer weather. This Valentine’s Day, why not get you and your kids in the spirit of the day with these not-so-traditional, organic tees. Here’s a sampling of my favorite this year!
This lovely t-shirt made it into my inbox last night (for moms!), and I fell in love. As a native New Yorker, the “I heart (symbol)” means all things NY. Plus, the shirt is organic cotton and is only $20 (for organic, how can you resist?) District Cotton has been turning out hip, modern and affordable apparel for adults, and right now they’ll sweeten your order with a free tin of chocolate covered cacao from SweetRiot with any order over $20.
Tiny Revolutionary has scored another love connection with this adorable Recycle Love tee for babies and kids. This shirt totally walks the walk. It’s made from 100% recycled, sweatshop-free cotton using water-based ink, and is sure to get a ton of wear from your little one.
One of my favorite Etsy designers is Wren Willow, and for Valentine’s Day she has a bunch of onesies and shirts for infants up to kids sized twelve. Each piece is either hand silkscreened (such as this heartbreaker tee) or painted with original designs (Mom tattoo, anyone?). Both the shirt color and water-based inks can be customized. Wren Willow’s items can take a week or so to ship, for printing and drying times, so order early!
I don’t know if kids are still asking for ponies these days, but this organic horse t-shirt/onesie from Little Lark will definitely appeal to your horse-loving daughter (see the website for pink and yellow versions). For boys, robots are always a big hit, and I love how this organic robot tee has just a hint of V-Day without overdoing it. Little Lark always uses lead-free inks as well.
my son would love the recycle love tee! he is so into recycling and the recycle truck. thanks! He has a bday coming up!
