BLACKBIRD TEES

hey all :) 
I came in contact this month with a wonderful company called Blackbird Tees. This company is amazing in soo many ways, and I really want to get other people aware that these great clothes exist !

She is located in Seattle but all clothing items can be found here:
http://www.etsy.com/shop/blackbirdtees#
(for those of you who don't know, etsy is a website dedicated to promoting artists and selling their products)

So I came across her designs just by searching on etsy and I immediately fell in LOVE. Her company includes women and men clothing and has a very indie/artistic feel which shows in her clothing. I was so impressed and loving a ton of her pieces so I decided I would order my favorite shirt. 

This shirt is called the "One That Got Away Slouchy Pullover." It retails for $37.00


I ordered my shirt on Wednesday. (September 29) It is now Friday. (October 1) WOW. That is pretty much unheard of. I didn't specify or pay for any special shipping, but my package came in about 2 days. Honestly, what better costumer service?

When I opened my package it was sealed in tissue paper with a tiny (handwritten) note thanking me for purchasing from her company. Again, what company does that? None. When I touched the shirt it was a soft sweatshirt material. I ordered a medium because in her description she stated "shirt has a slouchy fit & appearance, and is meant to loosely drape over the body." The sizing chart was pretty accurate as well. I definitely could comfortably fit in a small, but the medium has the slouchy appearance--which I was going for. The detailing is hand-printed. It seems like it will be able to handle some wear and tear. Also included are directions on how to wash the shirt.

Overall, I am SOOO impressed with the quality of the shirt, the efficient response from the company, and the generous note. I will 100% be buying more from this company and will be recommending to ALL my friends and families.
