Ever since we have added the knit line Lilla P. to our repertoire, we just can’t seem to keep it on the sales floor. We adore this brand, & for those of you that don’t know, they are best known for their Origami wrap, (check out the link to the video of how to wear below). However, beyond the origami, we have been flying out of all of the styles that we order- check out pics of our best sellers above…It’s the roomier shape, it’s the comfort, and it’s the unbelievably soft pima cotton. Softer than, should we say… Michael Stars??? Different look altogether, a bit more detail, a bit more sophistication than your basic tee. Most of you have already been introduced to the newest kid on the block, but if you haven’t yet, please come and see what the fuss is about!
