How to measure: Lay a tee you like flat. Measure straight across the chest, armpit to armpit. Pick the size with the closest chest width. Length runs from the top of the shoulder to the hem.

Fabric: 100% combed, ring-spun cotton, 4.2 oz per square yard. Lightweight and pre-shrunk.

Care: Wash inside out in cold water. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Don't iron the print. Don't bleach or dry clean.

Each piece can differ from the chart by up to 2 inches.

Your laugh is too loud, and your taste runs a little odd. You keep what everyone else would throw away. The people who love you love exactly that.

"There is no exquisite beauty without some strangeness."
— Francis Bacon, via Edgar Allan Poe
Francis Bacon, "Of Beauty," 1625, as quoted by Poe in "Ligeia," 1838. We check every line against a primary source.

Beautiful is never perfect. The crooked smile, the gap in the teeth, the thing that's slightly off. That's what makes a face unforgettable.

The credit reads Francis Bacon, via Poe. Bacon had the idea first. Poe reworded it and credited him.

Wear it on your strangest day. Especially then.
